Masks

My husband and I wanted some masks for Halloween this year and since we're on a budget I offered to make them. So we hit up our local craft store for supplies. However all the mask bases that we looked at were ill-fitting cheap plastic. Since I have a tackle box of acrylic paint and a big bag full of fabric I opted to create personalized masks instead. 

I learned a great many things about mask making, mainly involving the fact that ordinary fabric doesn't hold it's shape very well no matter how many layers of acrylic paint you layer on top of it. Next time I'll use leather. Still the masks didn't turn out too badly for my first attempt. I'd love to make more... with the proper materials.
