Creative Expressions of Indianapolis, Indiana, has recalled about 43,100 "1st" Birthday Party Hats. While no incidents or injuries have been reported, foil fringe glued to the bottom edge of the party hats can detach, posing a choking hazard to young children.
These paper party hats, maufactured in China, measure 6.5-inches high by 4.5-inches wide and are cone shaped. The blue paper hats have “1st” printed on the front and blue foil fringe glued to the bottom. They were sold at party and discount department stores nationwide from February 2005 through May 2007 for about $4.
Consumers should discard the hats immediately and contact Creative Expressions to receive a full refund. For additional information, contact Creative Expressions at (800) 428-5017 between 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. CT Monday through Friday, or visit the firm’s website at
