These masks are so awesome they have even been used by campaigners recently – how cool is that?
You could download a few different versions and really enjoy a day of making masks for the whole family – make up stories, you can join in too.
These masks are also a great way to teach children about recycling and how to use up old bits of unwanted card.
Masks are often a bit of a dicey topic – they either terrify people or people think they are great fun. I love masks for kids, I’m not a fan for grown ups usually, but these DIY masks from Wintercroft could easily sway me to love both.
Wintercroft design the template for your mask and you use any and all unwanted card around the house to make your mask… then you just decorate it however you want – you can follow their instructions or just go crazy.
I love the creativity this allows children, they end up with a professional, amazing looking mask, but they get to feel the pride of making it themselves.
This would be a perfect rainy day craft I think – maybe even something to save for Autumn and Halloween if you wanted, but for me, DIY masks are awesome any day of the week.
