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. :)

how cute! i made some and ended up just doing a rectangle and lay it across my eyes. works well enough and i tend to hate the straps anyway.

I love a sleep mask. I wear one every night. Yours is very cute.

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 :D

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

You are most welcome. I work third shift and i find these help me to sleep during the day.
