You can make it yourself with just a piece of fabric and without using a sewing machine.

It's easier and more economical than buying it, especially with this quick and easy tutorial for beginners.

here is how to make your mask without a sewing machine:

What you need

- a piece of fabric

- 1 pair of scissors

- thread and a needle

- 2 elastic bands

- 1 iron

- 1 small metal rod

- 1 plate

How to do

1. Turn the plate over and place it on the fabric.

2. Trace the shape of the plate with a felt-tip pen on the fabric.

3. Cut along the line to get a circle.

4. Fold your circle in half to make a semicircle.

5. Fold your semicircle in half again.

6. With the scissors, cut each fold to get four triangles with a rounded base.

7. Take two triangles and overlap them.

8. Thread the thread on a needle and sew the rounded edges together. At the end, cut the thread.

9. Do the same with the other pair of triangles. You get two little "hats".

10. Turn one over so the fabric patterns are facing you.

11. Take the other pair and place it on the first to double your mask.

12. Adjust them well and sew the edges together. Be careful, do not sew to the end yet: leave 1/2 cm unstitched.

13. Turn your mask over, like a sock, pulling the fabric through the unstitched space.

14. Smooth it out so that your mask has a nice shape.

15. Adjust the ends and pass an iron over them.

16. Fold the ends towards the inside of the mask to make a small fold.

17. Sew this fold, leaving a space to pass the elastic. Do the same on the other side.

18. Cut the elastic in half and pass it through the fold with the help of a small metal rod. Do the same on the other side.

19. Tie a knot at the end of the rubber bands and slide it inside the fold.

Easy, fast and economical, isn't it?

In less than 5 minutes, you have made your fabric mask!

In addition, your DIY mask has a double thickness for better effectiveness against postilions.

And if you have a hard time finding rubber bands, you can just use 2 strings that you adjust.

Additional advice

- for adults, the diameter of the plate should be 25 to 28 cm. And the length of the elastic should be 20cm.

- for teenagers, the diameter of the plate must be 23 cm. The length of the elastic should be 18 cm.

- for children, it must be 20 cm. The length of the elastic should be 15 cm.

- To easily pass the elastic through the fold, you can use this trick with a straw.

- And pass the thread through the eye of the needle easily, try this trick.

- For step 7 of the tutorial above, if your fabric is patterned, it must then be placed inside out, the patterned sides one on top of the other.

- When you sew the two parts of your mask together, you can insert another layer of fabric cut by the same process to triple the thickness. You then sew not 2 layers of fabric, but 3 layers. The efficiency will be even better!
