Default Made my first sleep mask today.

It was really pretty easy. I like wide elastic, so i used some no roll elastic i had on hand.
The front is flannel and the back side is like a soft brushed denim. I put a layer of gray fleece inside.
It fits great is comfy and blocks light very well.

Thanks! Yes, these are easy, quick gift ideas.
I roll around in my sleep, so i need something that moves with me.
That's why i like the wider elastic too. haha

Neat idea, I've been thinking about trying one. I already have blackout curtains but I was wondering if it might help my brain to stop whizzing around instead of sleeping

Good idea! My daughter has to have it black in the room for her to sleep. I'll make her one of these. Thanks for the info
