How to convert your face mask into an over-the-ear style

.

Have one of our super comfortable and colorful face masks, but prefer the style that goes behind your ears? It's easy peasy to make the switch - just follow these simple steps.

.

.

What you'll need: 

- Your MiliMili face mask

- 2 Straps (we took ours from a disposable mask)

- Scissors

- Safety Pin

.

.

First step: Snip off your straps from your disposable mask (or cut two pieces of elastic or string) 

.

.

Second, remove your existing straps by pulling them through the strap tunnels on either side of the mask. 

.

.

Next up - pop a safety pin through the end of your new mask strap, close it, and guide it through the mask strap tunnels until strap comes out on other end. Remove the safety pin, tie the ends together, and repeat on other side. 

.

.

(You may need to untie the ends and adjust to make sure it has the right fit on your face.) 

.

.

What if you find the elastic straps to be uncomfortable and need something that doesn't pull, or that is a bit longer? You can use your old strap from the mask!

All you need to do is cut it in half, run each half back through a strap tunnel, and tie it in bows. 

Note: you'll want to make sure the bows are fairly tight so the mask still fits your face well
