Mine havent yet.

I think they are supposed to arrive in a few days.

nanners 02-07-2017 10:10 AM

Mine did. They're pretty fast.

nycfem 02-07-2017 04:09 PM

My masks arrived today. They're dope.

nycfem 02-07-2017 04:11 PM

Today is the cut off date, so it looks like we have 6 masks to make if no one else signs up before midnight...

Big thanks to those who have signed up!!!

I hope your creativity is running wild to masquerade this month!

I was out of town for a few days and when I came back my masks were here! I even think I have an idea! Time to get cracking.

Bèsame* 02-11-2017 08:18 AM

Got ideas???

Please no feathers for me (and no unsealed glitter- but that last part is old news).

How's everyone's masks going?

I scrapped the oriental trading masks. They just ultimately felt too kiddie cardboard to me.

I went to a Party City and got some real masks that are comfy on the face (like 99 cent each) and then have been working on decorating them. I like the way they are coming out. They involve a lot of glued on parts and I've been using good old Elmers so I hope they stay strong, but I've been using a lot of glue, so I think they might.

I'm really pleased with how they are coming out. My theme is "rainbow gay color bright" and I feel like they even look kind of professional. I'm excited. Making masks is soooo much fun! This is a great project!

BTW, I'd love feedback to hear if my decorations stay on. It's helpful to know what works and what doesn't, so don't be shy :). You can even tell me right on the thread. "Eek! Your mask self-destructed!" It's good to know these things!

I'm totally staying with the Oriental Trading masks. I like that they're flat, I think they're easier to work with. I've completed two masks so far and am liking how they're coming along. I feel I have some momentum going. I might even work on them tonight if I can't sleep!

Hurray, hurrah weather improving so art supplies are finally trickling in. Now I can relax, get that Valentine’s Day gift promised to someone special in the mail and then begin working on craft stuff. Though I was beginning to sweat it with the way the weather has been, now with things trickling in and enough craft supplies on hand to get started I’m no longer worried about finishing everything up on time. What a relief, now on to the fun part! :)

candy_coated_bitch 02-18-2017 02:56 AM

I'm almost done with my masks! At first I thought I'd hate them but they evolved and I like them now. I have a few finishing touches then done. And yes, they have glitter. Perfectly sealed. ;)

FireSignFemme 02-18-2017 05:26 PM

It’s been craft city around here today-with only six masks to make I wondered if ordering the group pack was going to be overkill. Good thing I did. I had no idea it was going to be this difficult. First pass around well I don’t think I’ve made anything that ugly out of paper since elementary school. However sometimes I like a good challenge so I practiced and practiced. Now I’ve got two completes/ready to send and the remaining four half done so maybe I’ll be able to wrap this up tomorrow or the next. I’m wondering how everyone else is doing and if anyone has shipped out already?

Bèsame* 02-18-2017 11:32 PM

Ok, I've started on the masks. I've had ideas and had to streamline them. I tend to want to do everything. I also make mine in an assembly line mode..lol.

So in my mind, I start with this step and then move on. Let's say they are cut out and there will be lots of glueing tomorrow. Iron on glue, spray glue and white glue. Tacky fingers! Ticky, tacky little gooey mess! (Insert, song...Little Boxes..)

P.s. my masks are flat too!
