8 Creative DIY Face Mask Ideas, Straight From Our Challenge With Pinterest

We asked and you answered. Two weeks ago, we challenged our readers to design creative, self-expressive face masks, and you certainly delivered. As part of our Make a Statement Mask Contest in collaboration with Pinterest, we received tons of amazing entries and narrowed down our favorites to the eight face masks below. 

The designs below reflect a range of different styles. Some matched their face masks to their outfits, some added fanciful embellishments, and some got creative with materials (including an old bedsheet!). I also loved one face mask that was made with organic cotton that was naturally dyed using eucalyptus leaves. Thank you to everyone who participated in our challenge—and thank you for wearing a mask.
