Now we'll show you how to make a really fancy masquerade ball mask that you hold on a stick.
For this we'll need a base color of fun foam. We're going to do two layers because we're
going to put it on a stick. We're using a bamboo skewer for the stick. We have some
pipe cleaners to cover the stick and then an assortment of feathers and sequins and
beads and trims to really make our mask sparkle. And you'll want your base mask pattern to
help with the shaping. Place your base mask pattern down on your foam and we're going
to mark that center fold area like that. And then trace along your patterns and then we're
going to make sort of a flair or just a fancy flaring mask like that. So when you have your
half mask done, you want to fold it, fold the fun foam in half like this and we'll cut
out our pattern so that we'll have it nice and even on both sides. And you're going to
cut two of these shapes and let's first draw in our eye holes and cut our eye holes and
then we'll make another one of these shapes because for the mask on a stick, you need
two layers to give it a little more stiffness to hold.
