Our next submission for the costume contest came from within the Facets team, and while not eligible to win the Halloween-themed gift basket, this costume was too good to keep to ourselves. We give you: the Box of Franzia costume.

Here’s how to make your own:

1. Buy a cheap white cardboard box, or take one from your parent’s basement, that’s large enough to fit around your person. Cut holes in the sides for your arms.
2. Google image search “Franzia,” and then draw the front of the box of wine on the front of your cardboard box costume. Use different shades of pink, red or purple depending on what type of wine you prefer.
3. Shamelessly buy an actual box of Franzia. Make sure to coordinate the type of wine depending on what color is on your costume.
4. Open the box of wine and remove the plastic bag that actually contains the wine. Use duck tape to secure the wine bag to the inside of the front of your costume, so that the wine spout pokes out at the bottom.

You are now equipped with a DIY costume that is less about fashion and more about function. Encourage your friends to take part, and may you all enjoy Halloween responsibly.
