This DIY trucker hat kit is designed for kids ages 8 and up, and for younger children with adult supervision. It includes everything needed to decorate one custom hat: 1 plain white trucker hat, 12 embroidered fabric patches with repositionable sticker backing, 5 colors of permanent fabric puff paint, 1 paintbrush, 1 reusable mixing palette, 3 reusable stencils, and a step-by-step instruction card. The included paint is permanent on fabric and dries to the touch in 4–6 hours. For best results, allow at least 72 hours to fully cure before washing. Once cured, painted designs without patches are machine washable—just turn items inside out, avoid heat and air dry to help prevent cracking or peeling. The puff paint is non-toxic, safe for kids, and washes off skin with soap and warm water - gently scrub with washcloth, if necessary. The patches can be repositioned before pressing firmly into place and stick best with gentle handwashing only. They may come off in the machine, so machine washing is not recommended if patches are applied. The stencils are reusable and can be used with both paint and markers for repeated projects. This kit is beginner-friendly and suitable for individual crafting, school art projects, or party activities (note: each kit decorates one hat, so multiple kits are recommended for groups). It's appropriate for both boys and girls and encourages hands-on creativity away from screens. The hat works well as a base for additional fabric stickers, patches for backpacks or jackets, and even other fabric paints. Standard packaging is included and can be gift-wrapped for birthdays, holidays, or sleepover crafts.
