Charlie Brown Gang Costume Ideas?

Question

me and my friends,(there are 4 of us) are going to dress up as some of the characters form the charlie brown gang for halloween. does anyone have and ideas on how to make these costumes. it would be ideal to spend less that $30. charlie brown is obvious, a yellow shirt with a black ziggzag and brown shorts, yellow ankle socks and brown shoes and a little curl on my head. but what about the other characters, sally, lucy, pigpen, ect.

thanks!!!

Answer 1

The easiest method to the right color schemes is to use dyes.  They're pretty cheap.

It seems you have Charlie Brown down solid so I'll move on.

Sally and Lucy I think both wore blue dresses which you can probably find at a Thrift shop (Salvation Army, Purple Heart).  Use blonde and brunette wigs.

Pig Pen is fairly easy.  Use Brown clothes for starters. Smash a BBQ brick and rub on the face and hands for more dirt effect.  Don't forget to trash the clothes with charcoal.  A little powdered dirt can't hurt either.

Schroeder starts getting complicated.  The only thing I could suggest is get a toy piano.

Hope these help.

Happy Halloween!
