Vesil
Vesil Mini Party Hats, 9 Pom Pom Cones + 2 Gold & Silver Crowns
$7.99
Clown Hats
A pointed cone with a pom pom on the tip is the classic clown hat shape, and that is what these sets give you, at a mini scale. The Vesil mini cone hats, ordered most from this search, are about 5.3 in (13.5 cm) tall on a 3.54 in (9 cm) base: 9 assorted paper cones with pom poms plus a gold and a silver crown. That size sits on top of a child's head, a doll or a teddy bear. It will not cover an adult head like a full-size costume clown hat, so grown-ups should treat it as a small, playful topper.

Olen
Olen Kids Party Hats, 11-Pack: 9 Pom Pom Cones + 2 Crowns
$7.99
Nine 5.1 in pom pom cones in mixed prints, 2 metallic crowns, with 15.7 in elastic straps and adhesive dots.
What to look for
- Know the scale. Both sets are minis around 5 in tall; for a grown-up clown costume they work as a tilted novelty topper, not a fitted hat.
- The pom pom is what makes a cone read as a clown hat. Attach it firmly before the party, since a missing topper just looks like a plain birthday hat.
- For a circus or clown-themed birthday, give every child a cone and save the two crowns for the ringmaster or the birthday child.
- Pair the hat with a red clown nose and one bold outfit piece, such as a striped shirt or a big bow tie, for a quick clown look without face paint.
- Pom poms and crown pieces are small parts. Assemble the hats ahead of time and keep an adult nearby while young children wear them.

Where a mini clown hat works best
Small cones shine where a full-size hat would look out of proportion: on toddlers, on a row of stuffed animals at a circus party, in close-up photos, or as a finishing piece on a child’s dress-up outfit. For an adult clown costume meant to be worn all evening, a mini cone is better as a side-tilted accent held with the elastic. For the rest of the outfit, see our clown costume basics.
Frequently asked questions
Will these clown hats fit an adult?
Only as a small novelty accent. The cones are about 5.1 to 5.3 in tall on a 3.5 in base, sized for kids, dolls, stuffed animals and small pets. An adult can wear one tilted for a photo, but it will not sit down over the head.
Are they made of paper or fabric?
Paper. Both sets arrive flat, and you fold each cone, close it and add the pom pom yourself. The Olen set includes adhesive dots for this, and Vesil suggests watching its assembly video first.
Do the hats have a pom pom on top?
Yes. Every cone in both sets is made to take a pom pom topper, which gives the classic clown silhouette. The crowns in each set do not have pom poms.
How do the hats stay on?
With elastic. The Olen set lists 15.7 in elastic straps. If the strap feels loose on a doll or toddler, tie a knot to shorten it rather than stretching it.
Can I use them for a circus-themed party?
Yes. Nine cones with pom poms dress a small group of kids or a lineup of plush toys, and the gold and silver crowns can mark the birthday child or a ringmaster.
