Making a Bunny Mask
Now I'll show you how to make a bunny mask. You want to, we're going to be using, for this, a blue...we're making a blue bunny. And we'll use also the little bit of blue feather boa, some white for the ears, a little bit of elastic, your stapler, a little bit of tape to cover the staples, the glue, and our base mask. So you want to place your base mask on the fun foam and trace the bottom and the eyes, and then you're going to draw a little bit up like this. And then, draw one bunny ear to the middle, like that, and then you'll fold the fun foam in half and cut around so you have two even bunny ears. OK. Any of the writing that you do, or the tracing, you'll be putting in the back, and the front will be the clean side. And then you want to cut a couple pieces of white fun foam, or pink, whatever color you prefer, to do the ears. And we'll glue those on. OK, you want to glue those on. And then, you want to measure out elastic so that it fits the person who'll be wearing the mask. And we'll staple that on, going from the front to the back and making sure that you secure the elastic -- make sure the staple goes through the mask and the elastic like this. And then you want to take a little bit of, I'm using electrical tape, because it's nice soft tape, and it sticks firmly to the fun foam. And that will cover up the elastic and the staple. And then do the same thing on the other side, making sure that your stapler goes through the elastic on both sides nice and securely. You can trim off any excess. And just cover that up with a bit of tape. OK. Now we'll finish this off by putting a nice thick bead of a nice craft glue along the top. And we're going to put this bit of feather boa on the top, gives it a nice fuzzy, bunny look. You can further decorate your mask with sequins or anything else that you want to sparkle up your mask with.
