Alleged Party Hats by Heather Grace/Alleged "AllegedPartyHats" $200.00 for a set of 5 "I (Will) recently had a small dinner party with 5 people in my tiny Brooklyn apartment. After we ate, the single malt mysteriously filled up in our wine glasses and these amazing party hats sprouted on our heads. What was supposed to be a quiet dinner with friends turned into a rager of a party, and it was all due to these amazing hand crafted hats. Each set of 5 is different. You never know what you'll be getting when you order these from Heather. They take about 4 weeks to be crafted and sent out. Worth the wait and the party!" photo by Jacob Krupnick
