Do-it-yourself sleep mask

First of all, you need to make a mask pattern from cardboard. It should be 20 cm long and 10 cm wide.
There is no need to give allowances for the seams to the pattern, since the mask will be edged with an inlay.
About 3.5 cm from one edge, the cut will be processed from the wrong side of the mask. It is needed so that, if necessary, the sachet with dried flowers can be removed and the mask washed.
According to the pattern, the front part of the mask (whole), the inside of the mask (cut, with allowances of 1.5 cm for processing the cut), and also 2 parts from the adhesive strip should be cut.

The front and back parts of the mask must be glued using an iron. The allowances for processing the cut on the wrong side must be ironed at 1.5 cm.

The front and back parts of the mask should be swept among themselves along the edge. Moreover, they must “look” at each other with the wrong sides.

Then you need to pin the elastic to the mask with pins. Its length is determined individually empirically.

After that, from the wrong side of the mask it is necessary to grind a bias tape.

Next, the oblique collar should be unscrewed to the front of the mask and stitched at a distance of 1 mm from the ironed bend.
If necessary, the mask can be neatly ironed from the wrong side through the iron.

    Nowadays, the problem with sleep is very acute. There can be a thousand stress factors, and lack of sleep exacerbates an already sluggish state. These masks help to relax at the end of the day and just go to sleep.By the way, they are relevant in the far north, on the polar day, when the sun blinds your eyes day and night. I made a couple for myself and do not regret a bit. The dream has become like a baby and get enough sleep in just a couple of hours. I recommend!
