When I got an email asking if I would like to have a mask with an image of my mustache on it, I thought that sounded great. I expected them to ask for a photo, but about a week later, such a mask showed up in the mail. (You’ll see it on this week’s show.) It turns out you make your custom masks at home with the SnapStyle Printable Masks Kit, which just launched on Amazon and Walmart. Here’s how the company describes the kit: With fabric-printing technology, you can replicate almost ANY picture, pattern, or other artwork directly onto a 100% cotton protective mask using just your mobile device – no sewing required. The kit includes everything needed to make several masks, which can be sized to fit children and adults. SnapStyle has been rigorously designed and tested to meet WHO guidelines for barrier masks and AFNOR guidance on filtration and breathability. People can create unique custom face masks that celebrate a beloved team, coordinate with a favorite outfit, or even replicate their face! —- I also like that the app allows you to virtually see what the mask you designed will look like on your face before you print it. On this show you’ll also see me unpack a kit so you can how thorough and complicated these masks are. But I think people into social media will love making them and it will kids busy for a hour or so. Along with the kit you need an iron, scissors and of course, an inkjet printer. A kit of 2 is about $16.00 but it’s way cheaper to buy the kit for 4 masks which is only $2 more – $17.99.
