I’m waiting for someone to try this with a 45 scarf!
How to make a No-Sew Pleated Face Mask with Handkerchief and Hair Tie
Materials:
- Handkerchief (A regular cotton handkerchief of 18" x 18" is used in this tutorial.)
- 2 hair ties
1. Place the handkerchief face down.
2. Fold the top to the center.
3. Fold the bottom to the center.
4. Flip over.
5. Fold the top to the center.
6. Fold the bottom to the center.
7. Flip over.
8. Thread the ends of the handkerchief through the hair ties.
9. Fold the sides of the handkerchief.
10. Flip over. You have a pleated face mask!
Wash the mask after each use & you'll always have a clean mask.
If you have tights that have a hole or a strain, make elastic bands from them. Very soft and stretchy, they are actually more comfortable than regular hair ties. Don't worry, the tights will curl into themselves that nobody would notice you were wearing old tights on your face!
Elastic bands from a sock are also comfy and can be good alternatives. However, they tend to shed.
