Many people have pumpkins with candles stuffed inside. 3. If using face paint make sure it is nontoxic and hypoallergenic. 4. If you just have to have that super long sword or axe, make sure it is made of a flexible material. Another safe Halloween costume idea is to make these items out of foam and wrap them in tape.
