A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away, lived the perfect inspiration for your next Halloween costume.

Awaken your creative side this year by recreating some of the most legendary costumes worn by your favorite Star Wars characters.

Though the costumes may seem extravagant, the out of this world wardrobe from the series can easily be made from everyday household items.

Not convinced? Check out these DIY tutorials that are sure to make George Lucas proud.

Storm Trooper

Who said Storm Trooper armor needs to cost a fortune? With some cardboard and a little spray paint, you’ll be ready to serve the Imperial Army in no time.

Poe Dameron

Pilot, Poe Dameron will be reporting for duty after a quick DIY sash. Once you recreate that famous orange suit, all you’ll need is his iconic X-wing fighter.

Kylo Ren

If you can’t get enough of Kylo Ren’s dark presence and fiery red lightsaber, you’re in luck. You can easily recreate Ren’s look -- down to the elaborate helmet and hooded cloak -- before Oct. 31.

May the force be with you this Halloween.
