Free Face Mask Clip 'Ear Saver' Design (3D Print File and SVG)
Monday, April 6, 2020
Crafters have gone into action making homemade fabric masks and face coverings and now many with 3D printers are to helping save ears!
Healthcare workers are saying elastic from wearing masks for long periods of time is causing chaffing behind their ears. While ties are one option and a full piece of elastic around the head is another, supplies are in short supply so sometimes masks with elastic ear straps are the only option. Those can be made more comfortable by using a mask clip to secure the elastic behind the head rather than behind the ears.
Today I'm sharing a free Mask Clip Design that I like to call the Ear Saver. I've been printing these on the Silhouette Alta 3D printer.

DIY Fabric Mask with Any Silhouette CAMEO: Everything You Need In One Place
Friday, April 3, 2020
Crafters are coming together to make homemade fabric masks during the CoronaVirus pandemic especially now that the CDC is teetering on officially recommending everyone wear masks while out in public.
Using a Silhouette machine can really speed up the cutting process for DIY fabric masks. I have not only a free pattern for you, but the step by step directions - no matter which Silhouette machine you have! Plus I have a shopping supply list.
This is literally where you can find everything in one place on how to make your own fabric masks.
Oh, and don't check out if you're not a sewer or don't have a sewing machine. You can still help by cutting the fabric pieces for a sewer which will help crank out more masks faster!
