Mask Accessories

I really got a lot of mileage out of the skirt I cut up to turn into face masks. Along with probably a dozen face coverings, I managed to turn extra bits of fabric into hair accessories.  Talk about being facially coordinated!

Here is a close up of one of the scrunchies I made.  They were simple to hand sew while watching television.  With plenty of cheap but durable hair elastics on hand (which I also use for ear pieces on my masks), it was a small project that used up scrap most folks would throw away.

The color goes well with my hair -- which was one reason I decided to use the skirt (that no longer fit and wasn't needed for work) for face coverings.  I should note that my hair isn't as long and straight these days.  That was probably evident in my last post.  After having neck issues and challenges dealing with it at camp, I hacked about seven inches off.  My neighbor said it was the best COVID cut she'd seen -- but I had to true up and tell her I always cut my own hair.  Nothing pandemic about it!

One pile of fabric odds and ends yielded three scrunchies.  The thin waist band made a nice hair tie as well.

It's probably obvious that I make our face coverings.  They are unduly pricey to buy, and I have the materials on hand already.  Besides, a girl can never have too many scrunchies!
