Reusable, Washable Face Masks with Adjustable Elastic Locks, Adjustable Nose Piece + Option for Built-in, Permanent Filter!

Spring, Caribbean, Oxford with adjustable elastic locks

We only make and sell durable, high-quality masks built to withstand everyday washing in hot water and drying on high heat.

• These are not medical masks. But you can order them with or without a built-in filter, which is made of the same material that most N95 surgical masks are made from. Please read the section "Why Our Filters Are Superior." The filter adds a third layer of material and is sewn in place so you do not need to replace it.
• Every mask we make has two layers of fabric. Our 22 fabrics are made of 100 percent cotton, a cotton-linen blend, or a cotton-polyester blend.
• Every mask also comes with an adjustable, hidden nose wire to create a snug fit. To adjust the nose piece, simply pinch the nose wire.
• The masks come in five sizes, for adults and children.
• Braided elastic bands slide comfortably around your ears to hold the mask in place. We can also make them with headbands upon request.  All of our elastics have soft, silicone "locks" on them, so you can adjust the length for a perfect fit.

"Confetti" mask with soft, silicone, locks on the elastics, to make them fully adjustable.

• Top stitching provides added structure, helping the mask retain its shape in the wash.
• We deliver to mailboxes around Atlanta.
• To order masks, please see the section below "How to Order."

The filter we use is “constructed from polypropylene spunbond nonwoven with a Nanofiber fine filtration layer and surface layer of polyester nonwoven,” according to our supplier. Spunbond poplypropylene is the material often used to make N95 surgical masks.

Our washable filters are sewn into the masks and built to last

During manufacturing tests, the filter blocked 95% of 0.3 micron particles. The filter is soft like fabric. It has a MERV-16 rating, which is the highest rating.

We sew the filters into the masks, which are washable in hot water and can be dried in the dryer on high heat. You do not need to take out the filters to wash them because they are sewn inside.

Prices:

Masks without filters cost $16 each plus sales tax.

Masks with filters cost $25 each plus sales tax.

Ordering two masks per person is a great idea. While you're washing one, you have one to wear. Based on experts' advice, these masks should be washed after each use (We think of each use as “each outing when we were around people who aren't in my household”).

Payment:

We accept Venmo and PayPal for payments. Our Venmo username is @decoratedway (Travis Ward). If you don’t use Venmo, we can send you a PayPal payment request. Payment is due when you place the order.

After your order is finalized, we send you the total and you pay. When the masks are ready, we mail them to you via USPS First Class postage with a tracking number. If you need them shipped via a faster method, please let us know when you order.

The Masks Come in Five Sizes:

• XS Toddler (ages 2-4 years old)
• Small (ages 4-11, or people with 12" face measurement; see below)
• Adult Medium (most adults and teens order this), 8 in. W x 5-1/4 in. H
• Adult Large, 8-1/2 in. W x 6-1/4 in. H
• Adult XL (this size also fits over N95 masks), 9 in. W x 7 in. H

Masks for Children:

• The Toddler size comes with a head elastic.  All other sizes come with ear elastics.
• If you want a Small size mask with a head elastic for a child, please let us know. We definitely recommend this for children under the age of 7.

Masks for Adults:

To determine what size you want, you can measure your face. Start at the outer edge of your left ear, across the tip of your nose, to the outer edge of your right ear:

• We find that most people with face measurements that are 13-14 inches prefer a Medium mask.
• People whose faces measure 15-16 inches tend to prefer a Large or XL mask.
• If your face measures 12 inches, you may prefer a Small mask.

• We like to follow the CDC guidelines when it comes to washing and drying masks. You can wash your mask in hot water in the washing machine. For drying, either place it in the dryer on high heat, or let it air dry. To protect the mask while washing and drying, place it in a mesh bag or a pillowcase. You can wash the mask on the “normal” cycle, but you may need to re-straighten the nose piece or re-adjust the elastic locks after. To minimize this, you can wash it on the “gentle” or “handwash” cycle.
• If your mask has elastic straps DO NOT IRON THE STRAPS. Elastic will melt.
• If your mask has cotton straps, you can iron them.
• We pre-wash and dry the masks, and work on them with clean hands. To sanitize them, you should wash them in hot water and dry on high heat.

• Please put on your mask, and remove it, gently.
• If your mask has cotton straps, tie the top straps above your ears.
• When you wear the mask, you should still practice social distancing. That means stay at least six (6!) feet away from people outside of your household, or anyone who may be contagious. Remember that people can be contagious for Covid-19 and asymptomatic.
• Remove the mask carefully, avoiding touching your face. Then wash the mask and wash your hands immediately after. Doctors recommend that you use hand sanitizer or wash your hands for at least 20 seconds with soap and water.
