DIY for cute animal masks
Preparation
You have everything you need? Then get started!
Step 1
Place a paper plate on the “Uni Matt light gray” film and cut the film to size. Then remove the backing paper and smooth the film into place.
Step 2
Cut the covered paper plate in half using scissors.
Step 3
Use the tealight as a template for the eyes and draw around it on the inside of the plate using a pencil. Use scissors to cut out the holes.
Step 4
Use a pencil to draw the ears on the inside of the other half of the paper plate and cut them out with scissors.
Step 5
Affix the ears to the rounded edge of the plate using double-sided adhesive tape.
Step 6
Transfer the shapes to the back of each sheet of film. For example, mouth and nose on “Uni Matt black,” cheeks on “Ash Rose” and ears on “sand.” Then cut out with scissors, remove the backing paper and smooth onto the plate.
Step 7
Punch a hole on the left and right of the paper plate.
Step 8
Thread the rubber band through the holes and tie it on both sides.
You did it!
