What the Hat Party pack is
Hat Party is the pack CoolSticker started with and still the one that gets the biggest laugh when it lands in a group chat. You upload one front-facing photo and get a 3×4 sheet: the same face twelve times, each under a different ridiculous hat — a chef's toque, a watermelon helmet, a frog hood, aviator goggles — and each with a different reaction to the hat it has been given. The likeness is the point: it is unmistakably you, just wearing something you would never buy.
Who it is for
Birthdays, mostly. It is the gift for the friend who has everything, because nobody has a sheet of themselves in a pirate hat. Parents make them of their kids for lunchboxes and water bottles (the stickers survive the dishwasher). Offices make them for the farewell card. Couples make one each and swap.
Digital or printed
The free version is a 512-pixel pack you can push straight into WhatsApp or Telegram in one tap — the right size for a sticker tray. The printed version is a kiss-cut sheet of waterproof vinyl, S$9.90 for the 3×4 cm size that fits a phone case, S$12.90 for 5×6 cm, S$15.90 for 7×8 cm. Buy two sheets and the third is free; shipping within Singapore is free and takes two to three days.
Getting a good result
Face the camera, stand in even light, take off anything already on your head, and switch off beauty mode. A photo at arm's length with the face filling about half the frame works best. Generating is free, so if the first sheet is not quite you, retake the photo and run it again. More in our photo guide.
