Instructions

  1. Small 114907 2f2016 09 05 193210 img 7273

    Start off with a comfy eye mask you want to decorate, a piece of felt in your favourite colour, some silver rope and some silver thread.

  2. Small 114907 2f2016 09 05 193311 img 7277

    Trace around the mask onto your felt with a chalk pen.

  3. Small 114907 2f2016 09 05 193327 img 7279

    Carefully cut around the outline with a pair of pinking scissors.

  4. Small 114907 2f2016 09 05 193416 img 7280

    The felt will have a nice zig-zag edge.

  5. Small 114907 2f2016 09 05 193423 img 7281

    Cut two equal lengths of silver rope for your eyes, each measuring roughly 3".

  6. Small 114907 2f2016 09 05 193432 img 7282

    Lay each rope in a u shape on the mask.

  7. Small 114907 2f2016 09 05 193441 img 7284

    Thread a needle with silver thread and begin stitching the rope in place.

  8. Small 114907 2f2016 09 05 193503 img 7286

    Add a little line at various points along the rope to look like eyelashes.

  9. Small 114907 2f2016 09 05 193521 img 7287

    Make sure to make them matching.

  10. Small 114907 2f2016 09 05 193529 img 7288

    Finally, stitch the felt to the front of your sleeping mask with a neat running stitch.

  11. Small 114907 2f2016 09 05 193537 img 7289

    Trim off any loose threads and you're done.

    Sleep tight!
