What elegance

Remember when this happened? Well, that gave birth to this, and the rest is history. Hawkma has been a living legend at Columbia for seven years and now you, yes, YOU can bring her glory to your Halloween festivities. Amateur bird-watcher/ nudist Claire Friedman is here with yet another costume idea for the Halloween-challenged: Hawkma, the feathered goddess herself. 

You Will Need:

• Several bottles of Elmer’s glue
• Enough feathers to cover your entire body
• Two tarps
• A child-sized birthday hat (yellow)

Execution:

Step 1: Place each tarp on the ground. On the first, empty the Elmer’s glue bottles and spread evenly. On the second, pour the feathers.

Step 2: Take off all your clothes and roll your naked body in glue.

**note: if you’re feeling like a wimp like rolling around in glue isn’t your thing, feel free to wear a nude bodysuit for this step.

Step 3: Roll your glue-coated self in the feathers. Wait about 30 minutes for the glue to dry and the feathers to set.

Step 4: Fasten the small birthday hat over your nose like a beak. Now you’re ready to roam the skies!

Cost: Your dignity and possibly some of your skin/ hair. Also, about $40.
