Go Villainous With These 17 DIY Disney Costumes

There's something about being bad, the old saying goes, that feels pretty darn good. Except, when you get right down to it, who really wants to hurt other people? It's so much better to be a pretend meanie on Halloween with DIY Disney villain costumes! Sure, you could dress up as a princess or a superhero, or one of the Disney good guys. But this year, in between watching scary movies on Netflix, dishing out your favorite Halloween treats and crafting with the kids, why not make your own Disney villain costume?

From the Maleficent, the very scariest fairy of them all, to the briny deep's absolutely unpleasant Ursula, we've assembled 17 of the snazziest costumes based on the Mouse's most infamous rascals and reprobates. Whether you're looking for outfits for the littles, yourself, or the whole clan, we've got incredible ideas—including a few stunning turns on Cruella de Vil—you're going to love. And best of all, they're easy to whip up, leaving you lots of time to enjoy other autumn traditions, like hosting a dinner party, carving pumpkins and making wreaths.
