In the midst of a global pandemic, it's more important than ever to protect ourselves and others from the spread of harmful viruses and bacteria. One way to do this is by wearing a face mask. While there are many disposable face masks available, crafting your own reusable mask is a great way to save money, reduce waste, and ensure you have a mask that fits comfortably and securely.
This comprehensive guide will provide you with everything you need to know about crafting your own protective face mask, including step-by-step instructions, material recommendations, and tips for proper care and maintenance.
Cut out two rectangular pieces of fabric. The size of the rectangles will depend on the size of your face. For an adult mask, cut two rectangles measuring 9" x 6". For a child's mask, cut two rectangles measuring 7" x 4".

Tie the ends of the elastic or ribbon together to secure the ear loops.
