Just Bop It! I hope that any 90s kid can remember the Bop It! game (the classic version, of course) where you twist it, pull it or Bop It based on the combination the game tells you. I’ve been so inspired by nostalgic costume ideas this year that I wanted to make an easy DIY Bop It costume for kids or adults to make this year! It’s an easy last-minute Halloween costume that just requires a little paint and a trip to the craft store. All throughout your Halloween party, people will be trying to bop you, twist your hat or pull your leg. Play along, ha!

I remember Bop It! so vividly…probably because I wasn’t very good at it. Let’s just say I don’t have the best reflexes when the game starts to move faster. Nonetheless, Bop It! was such a fun game that I thought it would be a great nostalgic Halloween costume.

Don’t let the long list of supplies scare you! It’s not very difficult to make a Bop It costume from random items, and there are multiple ways to make the costume work for you.

Supplies:

  • Large foam half-sphere
  • Acrylic paint in black, purple, teal and yellow
  • Yellow spray paint
  • Glue gun
  • Black elastic
  • Black top/dress
  • Teal leggings or teal socks
  • Cup, ribbed pattern recommended
  • Yellow craft foam (optional)
  • Headband
  • Scissors

How to Make a 90s-Inspired Bop It Costume

Step 1: Start by painting the outside edge of the large foam half-sphere bright teal. Depending on the size of your foam, you’ll want to paint the edge and at least 1 inch up the sphere.

Step 2: Paint the middle part of the sphere purple. Add several coat as needed for the colors to pop and let dry.

Step 3: Draw out “Bop It” in yellow paint and fill it in. The words should fill the purple section of the sphere, creating the look of the Bop It costume button.

Step 4: Once dry, place the sphere against your stomach. Measure how much of the black elastic you’ll need to secure it to your waist and cut. Then glue either end to the inside of the sphere. Now you should be able to slip it over your legs and stretch it to fit your waist.

Step 5: Paint a ribbed or similarly textured cup yellow with spray paint. If using a regular cup, cut pieces of foam and glue it around the cup to create the texture. Then paint and let dry completely.

Step 6: Once the cup is dry, glue the bottom of the cup to the headband. It should be approximately in the middle.

Assemble the Bop It costume: To assemble your new 90s toy costume, put on a black shirt, dress or tunic. Pair it with teal legging or long teal socks that imitate the “pull it” piece of the costume. Pull on the Bop It button around your middle and put on the “twist it” headpiece.

Any 90s kid should be able to instantly understand what you are! Now you just need to practice your Bop It! sound effects before your next Halloween party πŸ˜†

    Love it! My son really wants to have bop it costume but I am terrible at arts and craft. Do you sell things that you make? Can we buy the bop it elements?

      Hi Dana, Sorry but I don’t sell the elements of the costume. However, I hope you’re able to follow the tutorial to make your own as do I try to make them very user-friendly for DIY beginners.

WELL, I was going to post this photo and talk abou WELL, I was going to post this photo and talk about the new pins in the shop...but they SOLD OUT in 12 hours instead πŸ˜­πŸ™ Andrew and I are so overwhelmed with the love of the #FIPWarriors community. Thank you to anyone who's purchased a pin to support Milo's treatment! We're so close to the end now! One more batch of pins coming up soon 😽
What do you mean I have to take down my Christmas What do you mean I have to take down my Christmas decorations?! 😭 Half our neighbors already took down their Christmas lights, so I guess the only goal is to not be the LAST one with lights up. How long do you keep up your decorations?
Maybe next year I'll finally remember to do a holi Maybe next year I'll finally remember to do a holiday card before it's a week til Christmas, so we can actually send one πŸ€ͺ When we get Christmas cards, I always feel like a little kid getting mail again! Do you send a holiday card??⁠
⁠
(Grab this DIY card holder in the blog archives! πŸ‘‰)
More product is coming soon! πŸŽ‰ I'm honestly SHO More product is coming soon! πŸŽ‰ I'm honestly SHOCKED to see Milo's pins sell out so quickly. We made 50 with the expectation that we wouldn't sell very many, but I just put in an order for more inventory! 😭⁠
⁠
This time we'll be selling black and white cat "FIP Warrior" pins to help raise money for Milo's treatment. Stay tuned - a pre-sale is coming! Pins will ship again in early January. In the meantime, there's plenty of other products available in the shop! (Visit my @etsy via the link in my bio)
NEW LAUNCH! 😸 Thank you all so much for your su NEW LAUNCH! 😸 Thank you all so much for your support of Milo while he goes through FIP treatment! I designed a new enamel pin to help us raise the funds to pay for Milo's treatment...THEN we sold almost all of the pins in just in a few hours! I'm so thankful and in shock of the generosity of our FIP community 😭⁠
⁠
There are a few left and more on the way, so you can SHOP NOW on @etsy and here on IG!! If you want a pin and they are sold out, please tag yourself below! Visit the link in my bio to purchase πŸ›β

"FIP Warrior" is the name we give to cats fighting FIP and the humans who help them, bringing awareness to the disease and possible treatments. Our Warrior Milo is almost halfway through his treatment and we couldn't be more grateful to see him getting better! Every purchase from my shop helps us to pay for his expensive treatments and is so, so appreciated πŸ™πŸΌ
🍁 I can't beLEAF it's been a whole month since 🍁 I can't beLEAF it's been a whole month since my last post (oops!) but I had to fit in my one obligatory fall photo before I dive straight into Christmas! If you caught my Stories recently, you may have already seen why I've been so absent...⁠
⁠
Last month, our sweet Milo was diagnosed with a disease called feline infectious peritonitis (FIP). It's very serious and has required our full attention to give him daily injections that should help him recover. The treatment is 84+ days long and has taken a huge emotional toll on us. You can learn more about Milo's FIP story in my profile Highlights!⁠
⁠
Long story short: I've been too emotionally drained from Milo's treatment, my regular work and the crazy world around us to even think about social media 😣 I truly don't know how you fellow creators do it! Hopefully the cheerfulness of Christmastime gives me the urge to create again! (πŸ“Έ cookies made for a project with @spectrumorganic)
