- Put on your comfy sweats, any color as long as they match, and turn on your hot glue gun. Run to the kitchen and pop some popcorn. Raid your candy dish as the popcorn pops. Step outside and pick up a few clods of dirt. Look between your couch cushions for lint, string or whatever else usually makes it way there. Using your hot glue gun, attach some popcorn, candy, dirt and couch cushion finds to you sweats. You have just been transformed into a movie theater floor.
- Find a pair of jeans and a comfortable t-shirt. Put them on, along with your favorite baseball cap. Grab your camera, preferably with a strap, and race to the door. Look through the glove compartment of your car for some old maps and restaurant guides. If you didn't find a map, stop at your local convenience store to buy one on your way to the costume party.
- Take the lampshade off one of your lamps and put it on your head. Wrap an extension cord around yourself or through your belt loops. Leave a fairly long portion of the extension cord to dangle loose. Dash out the door in your floor lamp costume.
- Take down your kitchen curtains. Sew extremely loosely (to avoid tearing when you remove them) across the front of a sweatshirt from shoulder to shoulder. Practice your southern drawl and saying "I'll think about that tomorrow" and "Fiddle dee dee" as you sew. Put on your curtain costume, grab the umbrella by the door to serve as a parasol and go to the costume party. Try not to remember that Scarlet O'Hara didn't have such a good time when she wore curtains in Atlanta.
