Jane and Gary Adler: "Clothes came from good will, dyed them and shredded a bit with scissors. dry brushed the suit with white to make it look old and glued painted flowers and silk leaves to make it look like we just came out of the ground. My hat said "death did us part." His hat said "I did, and this is what I got." He had a bullet hole in between his eyes and I had the proverbial cut throat. They cost about 40 bucks and that included buying his hat for 14.00. Old sandals and shoes painted. Get creative."
