TECHNICAL INFORMATION
Materials, Display, Wearing, Handling

Some masks are wearable, some are for display only. A few can be modified to become wearable. Please inquire. Every effort has been made to use stable non-toxic materials, finishes and adhesives. However, the masks should not be considered hypoallergenic. Many items used in the creation are found objects or vintage and of unknown origin. Some situations require hardy adhesives like E6000 as an example. Most masks have felt liners and cushions to cover attachment points. If you intend to wear yours, take it for a test run at home. Do not use as apparel if you have any concerns about a possible reaction. Due to health reasons, masks are not returnable. Not all masks are wearable.

Each mask is unique and hand crafted. Surfaces are sealed however, some glitter or microbeads may shed. Handle with care. If you need to reattach something, please contact me for recommendations.

DISPLAY METHODS:

Some masks come with a wall mount bracket that can be screwed to any wall.

And others come on a museum stand for display on a counter or shelf.

Earlier masks come with fabric-wrapped mounting forms that can be attached to the wall with a z-clip that is included. Install the z-clip on the wall with the prongs facing UP. The forms also protect the masks during shipping. They are typically white. This display method is designed for wearable masks.

TO WEAR YOUR MASK:

Each mask comes with elastic loops. You can use a ribbon to cinch the loops.

CLEANING

To dust the surfaces, brush gently with a very soft, clean bristle makeup brush or artist’s paint brush. A Hake brush or cosmetics blending brush are suitable. Avoid synthetic bristles unless they are very soft and securely fitted to the handle. Ensure the brush is completely clean of oils and other residue.

You can also use an air duster (commonly used for cleaning electronics) at a low setting and at a distance to blow off dust: the vacuum function is not recommended.
