Nerf Bullet Costume

Nerf bullet

Costume type:  Costumes for Boys
Category:Halloween Costumes

This homemade costume for boys entered our 2017 Halloween Costume Contest.

A word from Robin, the 'Nerf Bullet' costume creator:

My son, Chason asked if I could make him a Nerf bullet costume this Halloween! “Well, I guess I can try!” and it worked out great and he had SO many compliments!!
I bought a big piece of 2 inch foam and cut it to his height so he could still walk and made it abit bigger than the diameter of his body and secured it together with spray adhesive. I also just hand stocked it to make sure it would stay together. We cut face and arm holes out and sprayed it again with spray adhesive to secure the blue fabric we bought at the fabric store on the exterior and cut out the face and arm holes and folded them in securing them inside with spray adhesive again. We cut out the NERF logo onto white felt and put that on the bottom and used spray adhesive again. We used some of the extra blue material and just sewed some arms on an old hoddie so his arms sticking out would be blue also. We bought a big orange bowl at Walmart and secured it on top using tie straps and that’s it:) Chason loved this costume and so did everyone else!!

This is great! Can you explain a little more on how you attached the orange bowl to the foam?

We just drilled small holes through the bowl and and foam and fed the tie strap through both and secured it and snipped off the rest so you couldn't see it. Hope that helps:)

What kind of two inch foam. Where did you buy it. Was it just one piece or multiple pieces you so stayed together. And what's hand stocked it
