Patch Picks: Best Homemade Halloween Costumes
A few homemade Halloween costume ideas to try.

I grew up in Hanover, N.H., and lived in New York and Colorado before moving to Massachusetts in 2006. I have a master's degree in print journalism from Boston University, and a bachelor's degree in speech communication from Syracuse University. I've been a journalist for more than eight years, working as a reporter or editor for newspapers and magazines. I was Lexington Patch editor from May 2010 to April 2011, and am now an associate regional editor.
