What's a Mardi Gras celebration without a mask? I went to Mardi Gras about 10 years ago and bought a mask. But, like most other things, I figured that I could make one of my own. So here it is, just in time for Fat Tuesday!
I found the pattern for my mask at www.makingfriends.com. I cut out two masks, one from purple card stock and one from purple fun foam. Purple is one of my favorite colors! I glued the purple fun foam to the card stock to reinforce my mask. Then I decorated my mask with sequins and feathers. I attached a straw using a paper clip for a handle. That's it! It was so easy!
