More Masquerade Masks

Yes I have made more masks. I purchased a glue gun and had so much fun, I've never owned one so I was just having so much fun creating these masquerade masks. I also bought more glitter, felt, sequins, bows, ribbons, lace trimmings and feathers. The great thing about the glue gun is unlike other glue I was able to attach the felt to the mask without a mess, PVC glue takes to long to dry as does epoxy glue. Super
glue hardens when is applied to fabric., so a big no! to super glue. Here are two masquerade masks that I made


The masks I used are hard plastic. I don't like the idea of paper mache masks. Just from a personal view point. On alternative nights out I've wore a paper mache mask and by the time the night was out, it wore down and was just spent. Where as plastic is much more durable and can be worn again and again. These masks however can also be used in decorative purpose to and not just for nights out. 

As always thanks for reading :)

Keep It Spooky Children Of The Night!
