What are you using for filters?

I ordered my carbon face mask filters from Amazon back in April...but they are out of stock on those particular ones now...they might have others.

I'm not.

I have read that if necessary you could use a one ply paper towel or coffee filter.

Before masks were available I made a mask out of a paper towel and rubber bands.

It was doable --the rubber bands hurt my ears though.

I cut a coffee filter to fit. Hope it does it's job. Spell check put the apostrophe in . We had a diner in my hometown with a neon sign reading "coffee at it's best" and our teacher called it to our attention. Or have they changed the grammatical usage?

I'm using disposable blue shop towels.  I researched filter materials a couple of months ago and these were rated better than coffee filters, paper towels, etc.   So I bought a big box from amazon and we're set for a long time.  Oh, and I've accidently put masks in the washer -hot water - with the filter still in and it held up fine. So they're actually somewhat reusable.

Based on the virus situation in my area, and my extremely limited outings, I am not using a filter in my mask.

Vera Bradley sells them.  They also sell masks.

The bridal shop in my town was using HEPA vacuum cleaner bags that were donated by the appliance repair shop next door to them.

That seemed like a better filter option than a coffee filter.

I use the Vera Bradley face masks with the VB filters. They're sold separately on VB's website.
