Materials Needed:
- Dark Make-Up
- Old, Torn Clothes
- Safety Pins
- Empty Tin Cup
- Couple of Small Rocks
- Cheap Wig
Instructions:
Dress in old clothes. Make holes and rip them apart here and there, and then use safety pins to hold the pieces together. Use real dirt, dark make-up, or paint to make the clothes look dirty and stained.
Apply make-up to your face so it looks like it is smudged with dirt. Also use make-up, dirt, or paint to make the wig look like you have dirty hair. If you can find something to blacken your teeth, use it on one of your top, front teeth.
For a few finishing touches, put a couple of small rocks in a tin cup. Gently shake the cup back and forth to make it sound like some change is in it. You can also make a ho-bo bag by typing a piece of cloth onto the end of a stick.
