About this design

Every elf needs a hat, and this one is pure Christmas workshop. The hat rises to a long point that curls over at the tip, with a zigzag cuff around the brim like the edge of a felt costume and a little bell hanging from a cord at the side. The cuff is cut out, so it shows in cream against the raspberry hat.

With no face or figure, it is one of the easiest elf designs to use: it suits shirts for the whole family, gift tags, party hats and simple kids’ crafts. It is also a quick way to make a whole class of children feel like Santa’s helpers.

Pieces and weeding

The solid file is a single connected piece with 3 cut-outs, the cuff and the bell. It passes our cut checks from about 4 inches wide, and its bold shape makes it a good first project for anyone new to their cutting machine.

Color layers

  • Backing in cream: shows as the zigzag cuff and the bell
  • Design in raspberry pink: the hat

For a classic elf, set the design to green and the backing to red or gold.

Projects

  • Family elf shirts, with a name under each hat.
  • Gift tags for presents “from the elves”.
  • Party hats cut from felt for children.
  • Stockings with a small iron-on near the cuff.
  • Classroom party crafts.

Step by step: family elf shirts

  1. Set the design to 7 inches wide for adults and 5 inches for children.
  2. Add each person’s elf name below the hat in your software, such as “Cookie Elf” or “Wrapping Elf”.
  3. Mirror and cut the hats from green iron-on and the names from red.
  4. Press the hat first, then the name underneath.
  5. Line up everyone for a family photo.

Color ideas

  • Green hat with a red cuff, the classic
  • Red hat with a white cuff for Santa’s helpers
  • Raspberry and cream, as shown

Elf name ideas

Pair the hat with a fun elf name for each family member: Jingle, Sparkle, Snowflake, Sugarplum, Tinsel or Twinkle. Kids love choosing their own, and it makes a matching set of shirts feel personal rather than uniform.

Pairs well with

The Elf Shoes complete the costume, and Elf in Training adds a funny saying for kids.
