Party Hat Questions

What exactly do I get?

A template you open in the editor and export — as a PDF to print, or as a transparent PNG for a cutting machine. Print it as it is, or change it first.

Will it print on my paper?

Yes — A4 or US Letter, whichever your printer holds. Choose it in the editor before you export.

Why print at 100%?

Printers love to shrink things to "fit the page". At 100% the pieces come out the size they were designed at.

Do I need special paper?

Plain printer paper (80 gsm) works. Card stock (160–200 gsm) holds its shape better for anything you wear. For the brightest colors on a home inkjet, use inkjet or photo paper and set print quality to Best — that's how it looks closest to the design on screen.

What are the limits on a purchase?

Three, and they're there to keep this personal: 10 downloads, a 90-day window to edit online and download (the files you download are yours to keep), and up to 5 saved copies of the design. Plenty for a party, a classroom, and a reprint when someone spills juice on the first one. Not enough to run a shop — that's the point.

Free templates come with 2 downloads.

Can I sell what I make?

This is a personal-use license — parties, classrooms, gifts, yes; selling the prints, no.

How do I keep it on?

Thread elastic or ribbon through the two punched holes and tie under the chin.

Which size should I print?

Large for a head, Small for a cake topper, a doll, or a very small person. Both come from the same file.

What can I stick on it?

Anything light — pom-poms, lace, ribbon, stickers. The top point and the brim are the usual spots.
