  Step 1

  Gather your supplies:
  Scrap piece of paper
  Poster paper
  Pencil
  Scissors
  Exacto Knife
  Ribbon or elastic

  Optional:
  Markers and stickers etc. :)

• 

  Step 2

  On a scrap piece of paper, draw an appropriate eye-hole shape. You want it to be big enough to see out of comfortably. I gave a few examples of stylish eyes.

• 

  Step 3

  Cut out the eye you like best.

• 

  Step 4

  Take the piece of paper to your face and look through it. With a pencil make a mark approximately where your other eye is.

• 

  Step 5

  Fold the piece of paper so that the hole is over the mark made by your pencil, then trace the eye hole and cut it out.

• 

  Step 6

  Draw the outline of the mask on one side of the folded paper and cut it out.

• 

  Step 7

  This will be your template.

• 

  Step 8

  Use this template to trace out your design several times on your poster paper.

• 

  Step 9

  Cut out the masks using the exacto knife to cut out the eye holes.

• 

  Step 10

  Cut appropriately sized pieces of ribbon (or elastic). You will need 2 pieces of ribbon per mask (or one piece of elastic per mask)

• 

  Step 11

  cut small slits on both sides of each mask and tie the ribbon to each end.

• 

  Step 12

  Optional: Decorate the mask with markers and stickers.

  You've got yourself an array of fun party masks!
