To disguise your bright eyes for a New Year's party or Mardi Gras, let them take flight in a fantasy of feathers.

Tiger Mask

Materials
  • Mask form
  • Ruler
  • Scissors
  • Paintbrush
  • Mod Podge decoupage medium
  • Hot-glue gun and hotmelt adhesive
  • Decorative pencils
  • Bead wire
  • Striped-animal-print felt
  • Orange glitter glue
  • Feathers (orange and black)
  • Faceted beads (orange and black)

Instructions
  1. Place the mask form on top of the felt. Cut around the mask, adding a 1/2-inch margin all around. Paint a coat of decoupage medium on the front of the mask. Place the felt on top, and press firmly until the felt adheres to the mask. Let the mask dry.
  2. Using sharp scissors, cut the excess felt around the outside edges. Poke a hole in the middle of each eye, and cut out the openings. Outline the stripes with glitter glue, and let the glue dry.
  3. Starting at a top corner of the mask, glue on feathers, alternating the colors, so they frame the outer edges of the eyes. Glue a pencil to the mask for a handle.
  4. String and coil faceted beads on a length of bead wire. Wrap the beaded wire around the handle, letting several beads dangle from the bottom. Dab glue on the wire at the back of the mask to hold it in place.
