36MinuteMask~Modeled~FREEPattern~TriflesNTreasures

Yep~another face mask! Nope~that's not a typo! It literally took me 36 minutes, from first stitch to last to whip this up for a friend <3
Of course, I made sure to have a pocket, for the disposable filters, but you can also make it with just one layer, for a mask cover, if you prefer...

It SHOULD go without saying, but just to be safe~THIS IS FOR TOPICAL USE ONLY! DO NOT INGEST! DO NOT PLACE IN EYES OR MOUTH.

We have recently been plagued with the most horrible of all plagues for me~snakes! Really~as far as I'm concerned, the only good snake is a dead snake...I have an absolutely paralyzing fear of them!
I understand that not everyone feels this way~some people actually LIKE these creatures *shudder*! But, I am not one of them, and I just want them GONE! So, I started doing a little research on ways to keep them away from my house, and I found a solution that has actually worked so far.
Follow me for a super simple, inexpensive, and harm-free way to deter these pests!

Making Your Own Silicone Molds Photo Tutorial

So...you want to make your OWN silicone molds? You have an amazing item, that you'd love to recreate, but can't figure it out? Cast it in silicone, and you can make a ton of them!
It is SO easy to do this, and SO much more cost effective...Of course, my first attempts at this were fairly bad. I watched videos with the cornstarch/baby powder method, and they came out stiff as a board. I tried the one that suggested a drop of vegetable oil~talk about a greasy mold!
Then, I found a vague tutorial on making them with JUST silicone~YAY!
So, after many attempts, I finally got it right, and I am sharing my step-by-step pics with you, so you can do it, too!
Follow me for the fun part~
