My first attempt at making the simplest form of a mask with the no-sew hair tie method. It’s quite crude but I have to say, it works very well and is pretty comfortable. It’s very thick/bulky which is probably a plus for filtering purposes, but I would like it a bit thinner. I’d like one that will fit some kind of filter. I have some medical masks that I purchased before we moved, that I used to keep dust out while I was cleaning the attic. I’d like to make a covering for one of those. I’m going to work on a few more today and see if I can’t modify it a bit.
I’m going to wear this one around the house to get used to it. I’m surprised how easily I can still breathe through it. I thought that would be an issue. But I can’t wear my glasses because they fog up, lol.
Please excuse the bed-head hair and dark circles under the eyes and wrinkles. I am sleep deprived...and old...watcha gonna do, lol.
