HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE


HI I hope everyone has had a good Christmas and a Happy New Year

I have been working in collaboration with Dr Alpanseque to refine the design to be comfortable, breathable, washable and have adjustable straps for a better fitting mask. Dr Alpanseque has kindly taken the time to make a video demonstrating the design and efficiency of the masks.


"The scientists believe the high efficiency of hybrid fabrics is due to combined mechanical and electrostatic filtration. For example, while tightly woven cotton prevents particles from passing through gaps in the fibers, silk provides an electrostatic charge which traps particles."


I have a range of fabrics to choose from and can order fabrics in for you but you will have to consider the waiting time for this. If you would like an embroidered animal or other design on the mask I can hand embroider this myself.
















I have been working on the design and fabrics of masks.

I am using 100% cotton for the outer and inner fabric and 100% pure Mulberry Silk for the inner filter pocket. Silk is the best fabric to wear next to the skin it also has static properties which repels liquids.



The mask below show's the mulberry silk filter pockets.


The fabric for this mask is Mermaid Scales.



Happy Faces,




Bee Happy.
