Face Masks and Covid-19

Face masks were one of the items that disappeared in the early days of the pandemic. You couldn’t buy them any where, not in stores and not online. The American people, always innovative, began sewing masks at home. There were patterns all over the internet. Some people sold them and some donated them to people and institutions in need.

Zazzle, a print-on-demand company, stepped up and began producing cloth masks. These are not medical or surgical grade, but rather for general use to facilitate social distancing. Many areas have mandated this kind of mask for the general public to wear when they go to the grocery store or other stores. There is a pocket so you can insert a filter if you wish. We are using non woven interfacing material in ours. (I got it on Amazon) These masks are washable and reusable.

I have designed many of these masks for purchase. My goal is to keep them fun, cheery and friendly.

Social Distancing with a Floral Theme

Flowers are always popular. They are colorful and people are attracted to them. Here are some of my floral offerings.

Animal Themed Face Masks

Cats, Dogs, Sloths

Everyone loves their animals, cats and dogs especially. In the last year or so sloths have become popular too. Something about this slow, sleepy animal appeals to people.

Hopefully this will be all over before the patriotic holidays start, but if not, here are some great red, white, and blue flag themed masks. Don’t miss the Canadian maple leaf one as well.

Face Masks or Not?

Controversy

There is some controversy as to whether we should all be wearing face masks or not. Some cities and states have mandated wearing them when we go out. Some stores such as Costco and Walmart say you may not come in without a mask. So even if you don’t believe they are necessary, they are required to go into certain stores. If you have to wear one, why not choose one that you like, that has a fun design on it?
