Just for fun

October 31, 2009 by Angela Leave a Comment

Happy Halloween! Last minute costume ideas for you or your kids, some favorites from my memory bank: Charlie Chaplin, a picnic table, the Captain & Tennille, grapes (green or purple tights and leotard and balloons), a robot, a tourist (Hawaiian shirt, shades, camera- funny for a toddler), Hugh Hefner, luxury spa guest (white plush terrycloth robe and shades), Tippi Hedren in The Birds (conservative suit pinned with birds)… that’s all I can remember right now…

Hmmm… I wonder what a “Non-Consumer” costume would look like… I mean dressing up as a “Non-Consumer.” A non-consumer costume could be anything you put together with items you already own… I’d love to hear what you come up with.

Are you dressing up this year? Do you have kids you take trick-or-treating? I love to dress up for Halloween, but we didn’t know anyone who was having a party this year. Maybe we’ll have to throw one ourselves next year.

Have fun!

About Angela

On January 1st, 2009, I joined The Compact and pledged to Buy Nothing New for one year. It sounded like the perfect way to converge my desire to live on less money with my interest in living a simpler life and trying to lessen my carbon footprint. The experiment was so rewarding that I'm continuing with it indefinitely. This blog documents my journey in non-consumerism.
