Masks in Fall Colors

tototwo — Sat, 05 Sep 2020 12:41:49 GMT

I've said it before - as long as I need to wear a mask, I might as well be fashionable. So, for summer, I had oodles of masks in flower and butterfly prints to match my t-shirts and capris. With fall right around the corner, I've ordered some new masks in dark, fall colors to go with my jackets and sweaters. Might as well have some fun with it.

Sounds like you may have seen/purchased a set or 2 from shophq for masks with flowers & butterflies. They have sets of 5 in really nice prints and colors for the seasons, passing and to come.

If you've not seen these there, you should definitely pop over to shophq and pick up a couple of new sets. I bought 2 sets of 5 in what they call 'roma' and 'paisley'. They are very colorful, prints are fun for sure instead of solids (which I also have in soft pastels). The set of paisley are great autumnal colors. And these sets have been marked down from the $25 I think I paid. Good deal then, better now. Get them before they're all gone, worth a gander.

Thanks for the ideas, @PINKdogWOOD. So far, I've purchased from ebay for about $5 each with free shipping.

We aren't out that much and are wearing only disposable ones.

In NYC - masks are mandated.

I've noticed in recent days - the most popular color mask here is black. I wear so much black - I should probably consider getting a few. (Off to Amazon to order.) *

------------------------------------

I have about a dozen that I crocheted (and lined!) in colors to match my clothes. I have more than enough - I don't plan on making any more.

I bought a box of disposables from Walgreen's for quick trips in/out - and when I'm going to the dentst / ENT. Figured I should wear an "official" mask there.

I just bought a set of four scarf/mask (lined) combos - in various animal prints. Also bought one chiffon typs - but a bit too thiin - I'll wear it as a scarf only.

If I buy anymore - it will be the scarf type - I can always use them as scarves in the future

---------------------

*I ordered three reusable black cotton w/filter pocket from Amazon ... here on Wednesday. Going to try to make some of the scarf type with some of the scarves in my stash.

I'd like to purchase some for my 2 grandkids (boys) but not sure where to buy. My search continues...

@San Antonio Gal

Last time I was checking masks at Walmart online, I think they had some specifically for children, so a bit smaller.

I ended up getting a 3-pack by Sofia Vergara for $18. They were basic colors and very nice.

@tototwo I thought I was the only one with a mask problem! I don't like wearing one, but if I have to, they better be cute and they have to coordinate with what I'm wearing. I have quite a few and I'm expecting the 3 more fall ones that I ordered last week and that are currently in transit. We might as well make the best of a bad situation!

My grandkids bought some halloween fabric and brought it over so I would make them some masks. My GD's husband wants me to make him a Cowboy's mask but I can't find the fabric that's affordable.

@San Antonio Gal : Old Navy has a ton and they come in kid sizes. They are 5 for $12.50.Bought a set for each of my grands and then used laundry labels,inside and out with first and last names (they got to stick on labels--they loved it). My household probably owns forty masks but the Old Navy are the ones I reach for the most!

You might as well have fun with them. I can't breathe through cloth masks, I wear the disposable medical masks. The other day, I saw a couple of women wearing pink ones. I was dying to ask them where she got them but I didn't.

Seems like masks are being sold everywhere these days. @chrystaltree, I got my pink one at a medical supply store while shopping for something else.

@tototwo

Thanks!. I just went to Amazon and found the pink masks. I don't know why I didn't think of that.
