While the recession may have hit us hard like a grand piano falling on the head of some cartoon character, it has only upped the ante on creativity.

And case in point - the holiday of Spookiness and Haunted Ghosts is upon us. If you are into weevils, decorating your front yard with plastic RIP tombstones and blowing up giant-size balloons of Frankenstein and Poltergeists to beat out the competition, you may be a little cash poor when it comes to the biggest case for creativity: Halloween costumes.

And if you have kids, the ante is upped more than ever. How could you resist those adorable little eyes the chance to wear something totally unique and glam?

Check out these darling videos by Liz Zack from iVillage; she tells you how to make a Bunch of Grapes costume for kids, a Bathing Baby, and Tiger Lily for all under $10.
