Masks can be Halloween costumes in themselves and for the child that does not want to wear a costume a mask might be fun!
Here is an example of a feathered mask that is made like a fancy pair of glasses.
To make a similar mask use a pair of sunglasses and remove the lens.
With craft glue attach fake gems around the eyeglass frame and glue on your choice of decorations.
The wearer will be able to see well with the large openings the eyeglass frames provide, yet with decorations attached their identity can take on many characters.
Have fun with making safe Halloween masks this year!
