Two big heart-shaped lenses in a cool pair of shades – with this printable heart glasses prop, everyone looks like a star. Color it, cut it out, and attach it to a stick. This free photo booth prop is a showstopper at an 80s party, a Hollywood theme night, and any photo booth.
Why These Heart Glasses Are So Cool
Heart-shaped lenses turn these sunglasses into an iconic accessory that stands out in every photo. The lenses are left open so you can see through – or cut them out completely if you like. On a stick, you just hold the glasses up to your eyes and you're ready to pose. In pink, red, or neon, they're perfect for 80s and Hollywood parties.

✂️ Craft Instructions: Turn the Template into a Mask
🧰 What You Need
- Printer + heavier paper or cardstock (65–110 lb)
- Colored pencils or markers
- Scissors
- Wooden dowel, craft stick or paper straw
- Tape or hot glue (hot glue: adults only)
Print the template on thick paper or cardstock.
Color the prop boldly – strong colors pop best in photos.

Tape a wooden dowel or paper straw to the back (blunt end up).
Hold the prop up to your face and head to the photo booth!
⚠️ Safety: eye holes, craft knives and hot glue are grown-up jobs. Don’t run or play rough while wearing a mask that limits your view – and never put elastic around the neck.

Fun Facts About Sunglasses
Long ago, people in the Arctic protected their eyes from the bright glare of snow with snow goggles made of wood or bone with just a narrow slit to see through. Today, good sunglasses protect our eyes from harmful UV rays. Heart-shaped sunglasses are an iconic accessory and were especially popular in the 80s. In Hollywood, movie stars often wear sunglasses as a signature look. Important: paper heart glasses are just for photos and don't protect your eyes from the sun.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What age is this mask suitable for?
The heart glasses prop is designed for ages 9 and up, teens, and adults. Older kids color and cut out the prop themselves, and an adult helps attach it to the stick – for example with a hot glue gun. If you'd like to cut out the lenses, an adult can help with a craft knife.
Will the mask fit a child’s face?
Yes – printed at actual size (100 %) on A4 or US Letter, the mask is roughly the size of a child’s face. For adults, scale it up to 110–115 % or print on A3/Tabloid.
What paper works best?
We recommend cardstock of at least 200 gsm (about 110 lb) so the prop doesn't bend on its stick. Wooden dowels, craft sticks, or paper straws make great handles.
Is the download free?
Yes, all masks and coloring pages on PureSketchy are 100% free for personal use, preschools, and schools.
Is there a German version?
Yes! You can find the German version at Herzbrille Fotorequisit.
