It looks as if I have also joined the wagon of using up stash to make face masks. However, the limited supply of gum (for ears) turned out to be the problem. It looks as if the craft shops in Poland are sold out of this particular commodity. I have placed an order that will be delivered hopefully on Tuesday. In the meantime, I will be sewing masks with straps to tie behind the ears. Or maybe there is a more creative solution to the problem that you know of?
