I’m sharing a quick and easy way to create a fitted nose on a mask you already own or want to make. This can be done by machine or by hand sewing with very few supplies.
You can watch my Sew & Chat to see how I make my pleated masks from start to finish –

star wars gift ideas diy
Thank you so much! This is so quick and easy. I've been making masks for delivery people and this will make the masks fit much better😊
Thank you. Love these tutes.
Hello. I'm not a sewer but I'd like to donate some money to help you buy supplies. How can I do that? Hope you can answer somehow. I'm not real computer savey.
Thanks for sharing
I thought I’d have to make a whole section for the wire but ribbon will work great
My spectacles have been fogging up for MONTHS, and yet I never thought about adapting the cloth masks that I have. I'm not very good at sowing, but I will give it a go. 👍🏾🖖🏾
Great idea for adding the nose wire. Thanks so much!
I'm a few months behind on making masks but this tip is awesome
Love the way you did nose wire, thank you for sharing.❤️❤️❤️
Verrrrry nice.❤️❤️
GREAT idea!!!! (also love that Star Wars fabric) I have been making some but have been wanting to add the nose bridge (yup, I wear glasses). I've been adding elastic around the bottom so the mask can hang around my neck when I'm not wearing it (as opposed to sticking in my pocket or purse or something)
This is fabulous thank you
So glad to find your clever method of adding pipe cleaner nose shaping to masks already made. I have many completed masks, and have been looking for an easy way to add pipe cleaners – thank you so much!!
Bless You Whitney!
Great idea, and video. Do you have a pattern for making masks with beard enclosures. Men with long beards , 6 to 8 inches beyond their chin, need a cover or enclosure to keep them safe toi. Thanks for your efforts and donations .
very clever way to do that thank you for sharing!!!
Where can I get that star wars mask?
If I don't have ribbon what can I use?
Thank you so much for sharing this. I made masks and used nose pieces made of aluminum. I didn't know they would break. Now I want to take them out and replace them with stainless steel. This is a great way to do that! Thank you again!
Thanks so much my wires just came today
Awesome. ….lol just got me some Pipe cleaners today
Thanks so much
Excellent tip. Thank you.
Great tip.Thanks.
I’m very late to the mask-making party because I had a good supply of surgical masks I could use, but I always knew the day would come when I’d need to start making them. Although I have a sewing machine, I am not an experienced seamstress. The nose wire has been my biggest challenge. I’ve tried several methods but haven’t loved any of them. I think your method is going to be the winner! I really appreciate you (and all the others) who have been making & donating masks plus teaching others how to make them for themselves. Stay healthy! 😎🙏🏼❤️
GREAT! Thanks! And it's nice to watch a video where the sound is loud enough. U ROC
Very useful, thank you.
Easy! Thank you 😊
GENIUS!!!!! Thank you so much❤️❤️
Thank you so much for this video. Very informative. This is exactly what I needed. Great idea.
What’s the width of the ribbon?
Thank you for sharing. Your video is very helpful!
Thanks for the tip from North Carolina
Clever, thanks for sharing .. I also haven't even done an awkward stitch with a needle in years so I'll have to look up what these stitches are lol. As someone who wears glasses, I may measure that ribbon to be sure it presses completely down the sides of the nose to keep the glasses from fogging.
Love this idea, thank you
Do you think i could do this for store bought fabric masks?
Thank you! I'd been trying to figure out a good way to add these to our fabric masks and this idea is perfect.
Thank you so much for sharing this.
genius!! thank you!!!
Very useful!
I got cheap mini cloths pins I stead of craft clips
Works great!!
