  • Question
    Do I have to use two pieces of fabric?
    Community Answer
    It depends on how thick you want your eye mask to be, and how thick your material is. One layer of thin material won't be very effective in blocking light. If you just use one piece, though, you won't have to glue or sew.
  • Question
    Do I use felt or fabric?
    Non
    Community Answer
    You can use either one, depending on the thickness you want.
  • Question
    How do I determine how long a piece of elastic I need?
    Community Answer
    Get a piece of elastic and wrap it around your head leaving out the front (where the mask will go).
  • Question
    Can I use normal liquid glue?
    Community Answer
    Normal liquid glue is usually not sufficient to keep fabric together. You will need to use fabric glue.
  • Question
    Can I use paper instead of fabric or felt?
    Community Answer
    That is not recommended because you could have the possibility of getting a paper cut. Paper would also not be thick enough to block light.
  • Question
    Could I use cotton wool on the inside to make it more comfortable?
    Community Answer
    Yes, but I would only use a little bit. Tearing up a cotton ball for material would be a good idea.
  • Question
    If I don't have any felt, what clothes I can use?
    Community Answer
    Sweatshirts, sweatpants, flannel, or any kind of cozy PJs would all work as a substitute for felt.
