Pink shapes - 3 layered organic cotton mask, dyed with Madder & Logwood
Description
A reusable, organic, 3 LAYERED cotton face mask that has been under dyed with Madder pink; over dyed with deep purple grey Logwood/ iron water to give a striking smudged shape effect. This natural plant dye bath produces a unique combination of colours that cannot be replicated with synthetic dyes.
I have ONLY used elastic made from organic cotton and NATURAL rubber. 3 layer masks are recommended by the Government.
The face mask’s approx. measurements: 8cm wide when closed, 32cm in length, which INCLUDES the elastic.
The chemical-free dyeing process using plants, is labour intensive as each step takes time and patience; a quiet protest and sustainable alternative to the ‘fast, thoughtless and disposable’ way of producing items in modern society.
To extend the life of this mask, hand wash, using preferably an eco friendly detergent and hang up to dry out of direct sunlight. Studies have also shown that steam ironing can play an important role in sanitising fabric. This will also give a crisper look to the mask’s pleats.
PLEASE NOTE: Due to hygiene reasons, this mask cannot be returned.
All packaging is plastic free - paper tape, recycled cardboard boxes, padding and corn starch wrapping. All of these materials are biodegradable. The corn starch bags are compostable.
Inspiration
Many face masks are made with cheap cotton, synthetic dyes and synthetic elastic (all right next to the nose and mouth!) Also, sadly many of these plastic based face masks are already being found, discarded on beaches, with it being just a matter of time before they entangle or end up being eaten by some poor sea creatures. As an eco friendly alternative, I wanted to make a reusable and sustainable face mask using organic fabric AND organic elastic, using only natural plant dyes. What could be better?
