A Note About Our Masks: The personal use of masks can help protect your t-zone by reminding you to not touch your face which offers some protection when in the public and indoors. These items also prevent some of the spread of droplets to other individuals around you. Personal use of cloth masks is important for everyone, especially for the at-risk population like the elderly or pregnant women as well as those who are immunocompromised. Individuals with respiratory or heart conditions may not be able to wear a mask. Please note that the cloth masks are not medical-grade PPE that is required in the hospital and emergency settings. While handcrafted masks are based on CDC & WHO guidelines, they do not stop the spread of disease entirely. Please refer to the CDC and WHO for more information.
