As a child of the 80’s, I loved my Game Boy and Tetris was my absolute fave! I still love me some Tetris! I decided it would be fun to turn my sweet baby into one of my beloved childhood toys and make him a DIY Game Boy costume out of a onesie.
Along with my DIY game boy onesie, I’m sharing 88+ more really awesome handmade costume ideas from talented bloggers all over blogland!
Here’s what you need to make the DIY game boy oneisie:
- white onesie
- sheets of felt
- fabric glue
- fabric scissors
- a brown lunch sack (or something else to slide inside for the onesie while gluing)
Word to the wise, let the fabric glue dry completely! And don’t expect this onesie costume to be washable. If you’re using fabric glue, this onesie will only last the night. Sewing it all done would be easy and make the costume last a whole heck of a lot longer. First cut out all of your pieces from the felt.
Then, stick your lunch sack inside of the onesie and start gluing. It’s that easy, y’all! Waiting for the Game Boy onesie to dry is the hardest part!
And here is the finished costume sans cute baby:

… and what a fun costume idea to do with a friend, significant other or even a mom/baby costume! The DIY mouse costume is made mostly out of felt, and the DIY cookie costume is made out of a brown paper bag. So not only is the idea adorable, one of the costumes is even recycled!
