Materials You’ll Need:

Before you dive into your mask-making project, make sure you have these materials ready:

• FabricLA felt in your desired colors (for example, black for bats, orange for pumpkins, white for ghosts)
• Scissors
• Glue gun or fabric glue
• Elastic string or ribbon (for securing the mask)
• Decorative items like sequins, glitter, or markers for embellishments
• A mask template (you can draw your own or download one online)

Step-by-Step Guide to Creating Your DIY Felt Mask

Step 1: Choose Your Design

The first step in crafting your mask is deciding on a design. Are you going for a classic Halloween theme, like witches, pumpkins, or ghosts? Or maybe you want something a little more creative, like a spooky animal or character? Once you’ve decided, sketch or print out a mask template that suits your design.

Step 2: Cut Out Your Mask

Using your template, cut out the base shape of your mask from FabricLA felt. This will be the foundation of your creation, so make sure the eye holes are in the right place and the mask is comfortable for the wearer.

Step 3: Add Details

Now it's time to bring your mask to life! Use additional pieces of felt in different colors to add details like a witch’s hat, a vampire’s fangs, or a pumpkin’s stem. You can also use sequins, glitter, or markers to add extra spooky flair.

Step 4: Attach the Elastic

Once your mask is complete, measure a piece of elastic string that will comfortably fit around your head, and attach it to either side of the mask using a glue gun or by sewing it in place. Alternatively, you can use ribbons for a more customizable fit.

Step 5: Try It On!

Once your mask is dry and ready, give it a try! Make any necessary adjustments to the elastic or decorations to ensure comfort and style. Now you're ready to show off your DIY felt Halloween mask!

Creative Ideas for Your Halloween Masks

Need some inspiration for your felt mask? Here are a few fun and spooky ideas:

• Classic Witch Mask: Use black felt for the base and add a purple witch’s hat with an orange buckle for a pop of color.
• Pumpkin Mask: Orange felt for the base, green felt for the stem, and black felt for the eyes and mouth.
• Bat Mask: Black felt for the entire mask, with added wing details for an extra spooky touch.
• Ghost Mask: White felt for the base, with black felt cut-outs for the eyes and mouth to give it that classic ghostly look.
• Vampire Mask: Red felt for the mouth and fangs, with black felt for the cape and sharp widow’s peak.
