With the continued spread of the coronavirus pandemic, public health officials are recommending that the American public wear respiratory masks.
This article is going to show you how to make a mask from how-to videos recommended by nurses, textile pros and manufacturing companies.
In This Article:
- How To Make A Mask in 4 Easy Steps
- How To Make A Face Cover: Materials & Tutorial
- Examples of Homemade Face Covers
Before we get started, let’s look explicitly at what the CDC recommends when it comes to cloth masks. In its guidance titled “Recommendations Regarding the Use of Cloth Face Coverings,” the agency says this:
In light of this new evidence [asymptomatic transmission], CDC recommends wearing cloth face coverings in public settings where other social distancing measures are difficult to maintain (e.g., grocery stores and pharmacies) especially in areas of significant community-based transmission.
The cloth face coverings recommended are not surgical masks or N-95 respirators. Those are critical supplies that must continue to be reserved for healthcare workers and other medical first responders, as recommended by current CDC guidance.
Now that we’ve brushed up on the guidance, here’s what to know about mask effectiveness. This graphic shows the effectiveness of a surgical, N95 and FFP (filter face piece) as it relates to contaminants.
Varsoy Healthcare Mask Regulation: Surgical, N95 And FFP1 Mask
Basically, what it’s showing is that not all masks are equally effective in protecting you from the novel coronavirus Sars-CoV-2 & Covid-19. Now let’s get into the scientific data to back it up:
- N95 Respirators: These are touted as providing 95% protection against viruses but maybe less, according to this study from the National Center for Biotechnology Information.
- Cloth Masks: The DIY nature of these means that not all cloth masks are created equal. However, a preliminary study published in ACS Nano by University of Chicago and Argonne National Laboratory researchers indicate that homemade face masks made out of a combination of tight cotton and silk or polyester-spandex chiffon is very effective in filtering out aerosols.
- Surgical Masks: Most used in a health care setting, these are made out of polypropylene and are 56% effective against viral droplets, according to research published in the British Medical Journal.
- No Mask: You’re on your own with this one. Hope you’re not a carrier.
How To Make A Mask In 4 Easy Steps
- Lay a piece of cloth on a table
- Fold it in a large rectangle no more than 18 inches long
- Wrap two rubberband on each end and position it about 3 inches in
- Fold the sides one time toward the middle
And that’s how you make a face covering!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=42&v=tPx1yqvJgf4
The CDC has issued guidance on how to protect yourself from COVID-19 by wearing a face cover. Here is what you need to know:
How To Make A Face Cover
- fit snugly but comfortably against the side of the face
- be secured with ties or ear loops
- include multiple layers of fabric
- allow for breathing without restriction
- be able to be laundered and machine dried without damage or change to shape
The agency says when you remove a face covering, it’s important not to touch your hands, eyes or face.
You can easily wash a face covering in the washing machine, which is sufficient to kill any viruses or bacteria.
If you want to sew a face cover, here are the instructions:
Materials Needed To Sew A Face Covering
- Two 10”x6” rectangles of cotton fabric
- Two 6” pieces of elastic (or rubber bands, string, cloth strips, or hair ties)
- Needle and thread (or bobby pin)
- Scissors
- Sewing machine
Tutorial: How to Sew A Face Covering
1. Cut out two 10-by-6-inch rectangles of cotton fabric. Use tightly woven cotton, such as quilting fabric or cotton sheets
2. Fold over the long sides ¼ inch and hem. Then fold the double layer of fabric over ½ inch along the short sides and stitch down.
3. Run a 6-inch length of 1/8-inch wide elastic through the wider hem on each side of the mask. These will be the ear loops. Use a large needle or a bobby pin to thread it through. Tie the ends tight.
Don’t have elastic? Use hair ties or elastic head bands.
4. Gently pull on the elastic so that the knots are tucked inside the hem. Gather the sides of the mask on the elastic and adjust so the mask fits your face. Then securely stitch the elastic in place to keep it from slipping.
No-Sew Method: How To Make A Face Cover
No-Sew Method: Bandana Face Cover
Materials
- Bandana (or square cotton cloth approximately 20”x20”)
- Coffee filter
- Rubber bands (or hair ties)
- Scissors (if you are cutting your own cloth)

One thing that’s been selling out in area grocery stores is toilet paper. The truth is that no one anticipated people would be buying toilet paper in the coronavirus pandemic, but that’s what’s happening.
If you need toilet paper, there’s one outfit that has you covered. Atlanta-based digital marketing and PR agency, Trevelino/Keller has created the Toilet Paper Exchange (TPE), which gives out free toilet paper.
Atlanta PR Firm Distributes Free Toilet Paper
“In times like this, we need a bit of levity to break up the stress associated with ever-changing dynamics due to the coronavirus,” says Genna Keller, principal at Trevelino/Keller. “The Toilet Paper Exchange is indeed intended to distract us from the current stress while providing those TP-less, a roll to get through the day. We see the potential for the platform to address other impending household needs and are exploring additional ways we can use it to help the Atlanta community.”
Dean Trevelino says it is his hope that many of the city’s businesses that have closed their offices and set up shop remotely can donate their toilet roll surpluses.
“We suspect many schools, businesses and churches have excess supply of toilet paper and other paper and cleaning products,” adds Dean Trevelino, principal. “We encourage them to contribute to the TPE and we’ll take it from there.”
For groups interested in donating excess toilet paper and/or serving as a TP Toss Collection Point, please visit http://toiletpaperexchange.com/TKTossPartner.

It will take weeks to see the effects of these measures.
Kemp tweeted “We want Georgians to enjoy the outdoors, but you must abide by social distancing guidelines. @GeorgiaWild is patrolling state parks and waterways to enforce my executive order.”
As the order was passed down, Georgia Patrol cruisers were observed on city highways, Atlanta Police Department cars were seen on local streets roads and boulevards to enforce the order.

Atlanta rapper Future is stepping up big-time to help fight the coronavirus pandemic that has gripped much of the world.
The “Mask Off” artist announced that his foundation, Free Wishes, is making and donating respiratory masks to health care workers to combat the shortage.
Future’s Foundation Announces Mask On Campaign
“We recognize how alarming and critical the need is for medical equipment, so we have stepped in to help, by ensuring that masks are provided to healthcare professionals and patients, currently hospitalized,” the organization, which is run by Future’s sister and mother, said in a news release.
The organization is partnering with local sewing company Atlanta Sewing Style to manufacture the masks.
“Healthcare professionals, on the frontlines of this pandemic, are possibly risking their lives,” the organization added. “Last week many healthcare professionals and providers pleaded out to the nation for help, as they were experiencing an extreme shortage in medical supplies. In many instances, healthcare providers were asked to re-use masks or even wear bandanas as a replacement. Medical professionals voiced that this was risky and it could potentially expose them to the coronavirus.”

Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms on Friday re-issued the stay at home order for the city under the spectre of the deadly coronavirus pandemic.
Lance Bottoms’ actions mirrored the state of emergency she issued a week ago as a strategy to mitigate the spread of the deadly virus.
The mayor has been coordinating with Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp on executive orders at a time when the national response has been mixed.
The revised city of Atlanta order clarifies some exemptions as follows:
- Adds an exemption for landscaping and print shops
- and clarifies that package stores, such as liquor stores and wine shops, bike shops, and the insurance industry, are also exempt.
Lance Bottoms also fundamentally differs on the governor’s approach to stay at home orders, where Kemp has said he wants the local officials to lead.
During the virtual town hall Gov. Brian Kemp explained his decision not to issue a statewide stay at home order. ATL Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms said while she respects the Gov’s position she “would have a stay at home order for the entire country.” #MorningRushATL pic.twitter.com/W0FvqFQqx7
