- This non-medical face mask is professionally sewn using a 2-layer method. The outer layer consists of a colourful print on a smooth 100% polyester fabric. The inner layer is a soft 100% cotton layer for easier breathability. The mask is washable and re-usable.
- Every mask has a removable nose wire for better fit. It is removable in case you prefer not to use one or wish to replace it.
- The stretchy, 1/8" elastic ear loops are inserted through a casing on either end of the mask and are loosely knotted. This is to allow you to give the mask a perfect fit. You will be able to tie the loops yourself, ensuring that they are not too loose or too tight. Then, simply slide the knot into the casing.
- An additional filter (not included) can be inserted between the two layers of fabric for further protection, if you wish.
- FACE MASKS ARE NON REFUNDABLE.
- Shipping is by regular Canada Post (from Toronto), and could take up to 3 - 4 weeks, depending on where they are being shipped. Patience is a virtue 🙂 If you'd like them faster, then send me an email and we can do that.
- Backorders are allowed and a second run will be sewn if there is demand for it. If there isn't sufficient demand, backorders will be refunded.

About face coverings and COVID-19 (coronavirus)
The best way to stop the spread of COVID-19 (coronavirus) is by staying home and avoiding close contact with others outside of your household.
It is recommended that you use a face covering (non-medical mask such as a cloth mask) to reduce the risk of transmission of COVID-19 when physical distancing and keeping two-metres’ distance from others may be challenging or not possible, such as:
- public transit
- smaller grocery stores or pharmacies
- when you are receiving essential services
Face coverings will not protect you from getting COVID-19.
Medical masks (surgical, medical procedure face masks and respirators like N95 masks) should be reserved for use by health care workers and first responders.
Fit
Non-medical masks or face coverings should:
- fit securely to the head with ties or ear loops
- maintain their shape after washing and drying
- be made of at least two layers of tightly woven material (such as cotton or linen)
- be large enough to completely and comfortably cover the nose and mouth without gaping
Face coverings will not protect you from getting COVID-19. The best way to protect yourself is to:
- minimize errands to a single trip where possible
- avoid close contact with others and keep at least two metres from others outside your household
- wash your hands regularly (or using alcohol-based hand sanitizer if soap and water are not available)
- practice proper cough and sneeze etiquette (for example, sneeze and cough into your sleeve and avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth)
Who should not use face coverings
Face coverings should not be placed on or used by:
- children under the age of two
- anyone who has trouble breathing
- anyone who is unconscious, incapacitated or otherwise unable to remove the mask without assistance
How to properly use face coverings
When wearing a face covering, you should:
- wash your hands immediately before putting it on and immediately after taking it off (practice good hand hygiene while you are wearing the face covering)
- make sure the face covering fits well around your nose and mouth
- avoid moving the mask around or adjusting it often
- avoid touching the covering while using it
- not share it with others
Face coverings should be changed when they get slightly wet or dirty.
Cleaning
If the face covering can be cleaned, you should:
- put it directly into the washing machine or a bag that can be emptied into the washing machine
- wash with other items using a hot cycle with laundry detergent (no special soaps are needed), and dry thoroughly
- wash your hands after putting the face covering into the laundry
All face coverings that cannot be cleaned should be thrown out and replaced as soon as they get slightly wet, dirty or crumpled.
For more information, please read the Public Health Ontario (PHO) fact sheet.
