Here for the Cookies SVG

About this design

Some people come for the company. Others are here for the cookies. This saying sets “Here for” and “the Cookies” in a bold, bouncy retro script on two lines, with a round chocolate chip cookie on each side of the top line, one big and one small.

Each cookie has its chocolate chips cut out as holes, so in a layered version the color underneath shows through. Including the chips and letter holes, the design has sixteen pieces and nineteen small holes; the bold script keeps the words sturdy.

Color layers

• Lettering in red as the base, including the cookie outlines
• Cookies in golden brown on top

Projects

• Kids’ Christmas pajamas. Honest and fun.
• Holiday party shirts for the cookie swap.
• Treat bags and boxes. A label on cookie gifts.
• Plates for Santa. A decal on a decorative display plate, away from food contact.
• Baking night aprons for the whole family.
• Mugs to go with milk or cocoa.

Size and cutting tips

It passes our cut checks from about 5.5 inches wide. The cookie chips are the smallest holes in the design, so weed them first with a fine hook. On children’s shirts, 7 inches wide is a good size; on adults, 9 to 10 inches.

Step by step: cookie swap bags

1. Set the design to 5.5 inches wide, which fits a large cookie bag, and download the solid style.
2. Cut a stack of copies from permanent vinyl in red.
3. Apply each one to a white or kraft paper bag.
4. Fill with cookies and tie with baker’s twine.
5. Add a small tag with the baker’s name.

Font note

The script is an open-licensed font converted to shapes inside the SVG, so you do not need it installed and the words cut exactly as shown.

Color ideas

• White lettering with tan cookies on a green shirt
• Brown lettering with gold cookies on cream
• Black lettering on a red mug

Variations to try

• Remove one cookie in your software for a simpler layout.
• Add the editor’s offset border for party stickers.

Good to know

The two cookies are different sizes on purpose, which keeps the layout lively. If you need a symmetrical version for a centered label, copy the larger cookie and replace the small one in your software.
