If you have a lot of time and artistic talent and miscellaneous junk on your hands you can assemble a real work of art like Faith Farrell of Minneapolis, MN did (see photo on left) click here for her web site. She created this "alien" costume out of bottles, wisks, Christmas bulbs, rubber gloves, a bike helmet, and a "whole lot of duct tape." Another alien costume was made by Bruce Larsen of Fairhope, AL. Bruce created this incredible alien costume entirely out of duct tape. (He won $5000 in a costume contest with this creation!)
