Choosing the Perfect Grad Cap Decal

You know it is going to happen. You are going to take a ton of pictures on your graduation day. One day you will look back on your Facebook memories and reshare the memories time after time. So why not make sure they look the best they can with a sentimental graduation cap decal?

Chances are if you are graduating you stand for something, are proud for a certain reason, or was motivated by something or someone. How awesome is that?

 

If you are lucky enough to have something impact you that much throughout your college years, what better way then to showcase it on your graduation day by decorating your graduation cap?

 

Deciding which graduation cap decal is right for you can be a little overwhelming. But no worries! I am going to break it down for you to help you decide.

 

First I recommend starting with an idea for the design you want.

 

This is probably the most important part. What your graduation cap will look like once it is decorated.

 

I highly recommend having either a color scheme, a simple quote, or an accent in mind.

 

Things to keep in mind when figuring out an idea for decorating your graduation cap:

 

  • The simpler the better. Think of it this way: When you take pictures would it be more impactful if you saw a ton of words on your graduation cap in small letters or a couple of words in bigger letters?
  • Make sure your color scheme works to make your words pop. If you are designing a black graduation cap, I would highly recommend choosing one with light and bright letters and accents. This way it will pop and be easy to see and read.
  • Lastly, make sure it is you. Put your passion and heart into choosing the design for your graduation cap design. It should speak to you more than one way. It should touch your soul and make you smile on your big day.
  • Figure out how quickly do you need it.

Chances are you waited till the last minute to decorate your graduation cap. You probably got caught up in finals, moving out, saying goodbye to friends, moving on, finding a job… it’s a lot in such a short amount of time, I don’t blame you.

 

Graduation Cap Decal Downloads are in your hands the second it is purchased. So that way you can decorate your graduation cap up to the very last minute on actual graduation day.

 

Or maybe you want to avoid that stress of school ending. Maybe you need something to look forward to. You are excited that you just started your senior year but have been self-diagnosed with senioritis.

 

You have plenty of time to decorate your graduation cap, and will probably end up doing it the night before graduation.

 

A good way to stay motivated throughout your senior year up to graduation day is to decorate your graduation cap and hang it up next to your mirror as a daily reminder that you are one step closer to wearing it on your big graduation day.

 

Our Printed Graduation Cap Decals get shipped right to your doorstep in 1-2 weeks. That way you can spend more time enjoying your decorated grad cap and less time making it.

 

How much effort and time do you want to put into decorating your graduation cap?

 

Maybe you are feeling a little crafty, or maybe you think you don’t have a creative bone in your body (I highly doubt that) but no worries. Your graduation cap will be decorated for your big day, I have no doubts.

 

Maybe you are in one of these grads shoes:

I want it to be completely customized. I have an idea in mind I just don’t know how to bring that idea to life. I also want it to look professional and not showcase my awful relationship with my hot glue gun.

We can take your idea and turn it into something pretty special just for you. Our custom printed graduation cap decal might be right for you.

 

I want to get my friends together and decorate our grad caps as one last girl’s night in college. We all can bring our craft supplies to share, we just need the bases to add to our grad cap in case we mess up. We would hate to mess up on the actual grad cap.

I think this is a great idea. Not only are you able to make one last memory with your friends, but you can check another thing off your to-do list before graduation. We sell bases that are only a couple bucks each.

 

I kinda want to decorate my grad cap myself, but I’m awful with scissors and am terrified of messing up cutting the buttonhole wrong. I mostly just want to add some little things to it to make it my own.

Maybe a printed decal is right for you. We box it up and ship it right to your doorstep. All you have to do is attach it with craft adhesive and slide it right over your button, and wah-lah.

 

I just want to print it out and put it on my graduation cap. But then again, I want to customize it and make it my colors.

Do you love the idea of adult coloring books? Have you ever thought about coloring your graduation cap? Our downloadable color yourself graduation cap decals are not only relaxing and enjoyable to make but are perfect for you to make your design the colors you want.

 

Figuring out how to decorate on a budget.

 

Let’s be real. It sounds super simple to just go to your nearest craft store and stock up on glue, glitter, gems, and stickers, right? Don’t get me wrong, I love a good trip to the nearest craft store. Even though I walk in there with a handful of coupons, I always walk out spending a minimum of $50. Anyone else with me?

 

Then you have to take all that time to put it all together and hope it turns out presentable. (The first graduation cap I made I threw away because it was that bad. I would share a picture with you… but it’s embarrassing.)

 

But we can help you avoid breaking the bank and accidentally burning your hand with a hot glue gun.

 

For those who don’t want to break the bank and already are feeling the effects of a college loan, we got you covered. For those ready to splurge a little more and #treatyourself with a little less work when it comes to decorating your graduation cap we got you covered too.
