We went on the TODAY Show to give you a hand with "Saturday Night Live"-themed costumes you can make with stuff you probably already have around the house.

All this cozy costume requires is grey sweatpants, a matching sweatshirt, a belt, and a willing pal. Stuff the shirts with paper towels or polyfill if you need to bulk up.

The biggest challenge here is finding a box large enough to put your whole body in. When that's done, just cut holes for the head and arms and wrap the whole thing in the worst Christmas paper you can find. (We found that it was easiest to cut the holes before wrapping and then cut the paper after it was all wrapped.) Add gloves and a dance routine and you're good to go.

Take a black dress you don't wear anymore and cut out hearts, as well as a hairbow, from red and pink felt. Attach them with glue (or safety pins if you'd like to use the dress afterward). Dig up a short-sleeved white shirt and find a curly brown wig if your hair can't achieve Gilly's majesty on its own.
