Party Hat Trio SVG

Three hats, three patterns

One party hat is nice; three look like a party. The tallest stands in the middle, red with three broad yellow stripes slanting across it, a blue pompom at the tip and a green brim. On the left, a shorter blue hat leans outward, covered in yellow spots with one small red dot near the top. On the right, a green hat leans the other way with two yellow chevrons. Both side hats have red pompoms, and their brims are yellow on the left and blue on the right.

The tilt on the two smaller hats keeps the group from looking stiff, as though they have just been tossed onto a table.

Pieces and weeding

The solid file has 23 pieces and 4 cut-outs. Each hat is made of its cone, its pattern, a pompom and a brim, which adds up quickly. Since the parts are loose, carry vinyl on transfer tape, or glue paper pieces down to a card, hat by hat. It passes our cut checks from about 3.5 inches wide.

Color layers

• Red (cherry red): the middle hat’s cone, both side pompoms and the small dot on the blue hat
• Blue (cobalt): the left hat’s cone, the middle pompom and the right hat’s brim
• Yellow (golden yellow): the stripes, spots and chevrons, plus the left brim
• Green (grass green): the right hat’s cone and the middle brim

How to use the hats

• Invitations with the trio across the top
• Shirts for siblings, each one wearing a different hat cut from the file
• Party bag labels, using a single hat at a small size
• A door sign that says the party is here
• Photo props, with each hat cut large from card and taped to a dowel

Sizes

Below 3.5 inches the stripes on the middle hat and the spots on the blue one get too small to cut cleanly. For tiny stickers, print the color file and use Print Then Cut.

Splitting the trio

Every hat can stand alone. In your machine’s design software, ungroup the design and delete the two you don’t need, then resize the one you keep; it will still need to stay at a size where its pattern can be weeded. A single spotted hat makes a sweet tag on a party favor.

Color ideas

Try black and gold for a grown-up party, or rainbow cones for a crowd of kids. Our guide to changing SVG colors shows how.
