Homemade Lone Ranger Costume

A Homemade Lone Ranger Costume is an easy enough costume to make yourself. You can buy any extra accessories you need to complete your costume.

The homemade Lone Ranger costume is an easy disguise to make for a Halloween costume party. The single most important part of this costume is the black mask that goes around your eyes. Now, people usually don't have a black mask sitting around the house so chances are you will have to make one. That is easy to accomplish with a piece of felt. Make sure it is long enough to wrap around your head. Cut two eye holes in the front of the mask.

You will want a blue long sleeve button up shirt to wear. Make sure that you tie a red bandanna around your neck just like The Lone Ranger.

Find a white cowboy hat to wear with this costume. You will also want to wear pants that are either blue or black. Put on some black cowboy boots to go with this outfit. Don't forget to wear your black belt with holsters on it for your guns. You will want some toy guns to wear in your holsters. Silver guns are best, but anything you can find will work for this costume.

The word of the day when you wear this costume is "Hi-yo, Silver, away!" That is what the Lone Ranger said everytime he rode off into the sunset after saving the day. His beautiful white steed was named Silver and he had a side kick. His name was Tonto and he was the Native American Indian Scout who helped the Lone Ranger save the day. He called the Ranger, "Kemo Sabe:, indian words that translate to "faithful friend" or "trusted scout". The roles were made famous by Clayton Moore and Jay Silverheels.

The difference with stars today and stars back then is very obvious when we find out how serious Clayton Moore and Jay Silverheels took their position as role models to children very seriously. They tried to live by the Lone Ranger's creed:

I believe.....

• That to have a friend, a man must be one.[25]

• That all men are created equal and that everyone has within himself the power to make this a better world.
• That God put the firewood there, but that every man must gather and light it himself.
• In being prepared physically, mentally, and morally to fight when necessary for that which is right.
• That a man should make the most of what equipment he has.
• That 'this government of the people, by the people, and for the people' shall live always.
• That men should live by the rule of what is best for the greatest number.
• That sooner or later...somewhere...somehow...we must settle with the world and make payment for what we have taken.
• That all things change but truth, and that truth alone, lives on forever.
• In my Creator, my country, my fellow man."
