Hello Nigeria!! Lets get creative🤔😇

WHAT DO YOU NEED?
1. A plain material/ Ankara materia/ tightly knit cotton material (A scarf can work, the fabric should be big enough to fold several times and cover your nose and mouth.)
2. ✂ scissors.
3. Two rubber bands or hair tie.
4. Tape rule
STEPS;
- Cut the button of the materials of 7 to 8 inches off (cutting horizontally), so that you can have a strip of materials.
- Lay the material out flat in front of you, and turn it 90 degrees so that what used to be the bottom hem of the plain material (its usually double stitches) is facing left or right.
- Fold it frim the bottom to the middle, and from the top to the middle. Repeat this step a second time.
- Loop a rubber band or hair tie around each end (left and right), leaving a few inches of the fabric, so each side looks like a candy wrapper.
- Fold the excess materials over the band, with each side meeting in the middle, adding another layer to the mask.
- Lastly, put a band over each ear, making sure the materials fits properly to your face. The pressure on your face should keep the materia and rubber bands in place.
Note: while using this face make, ensure you also use your hand sanitizers and gloves to avoid the spread of this virus.
Also: avoid crowded areas, if you find you self in such areas, ensure you wear your face mask.
