Ideal for halloween, or masquarade party!

https://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/lace-eye-mask • Posted by Leah.

The first version of this mask I made for my friend for last Halloween. I was inspired by Venetian masks, now I had inspiration to do it one more time, for my sister. Of course, you can buy mask, but it isn't so much fun, like when you do it by yourself :) Note: Before you start, make a pattern for your mask, or find it on web, just tipe in EYE MASK PATTERN, than pose it in print preview, to make it size approximately to your face. Print it and cut it :)
