A Vintage Valentines Tutorial – DIY Romantic Sleeping Mask

title 25 finished mask on bunny A Vintage Valentines Tutorial   DIY Romantic Sleeping Mask

I love my sleeping masks. They are my secret to successful daytime naps, as rare as they are, and also do a marvellous job at securely holding those much needed eye cooling gels.  I always love the way the romantic heroine awakes in bed and peers from beneath those satin hoods. Most memorable to me is the divine Auntie Mame who sits bolt upright, awoken by her nephew, to exclaim, “Not now darling, Mamie’s hung.”

My lovely friend Violet Le Beaux has been making some DIY sleep masks of late including this one you can customise with your own message; and so I was inspired to finally make the perfect one for me and share it with you too.  This is an easy to make, perfect gift for your Valentine, and of course yourself. Get creative and think of different colours and trim you can use to make this your own.  I’d love to see the results of your imagination and if you email me pics of your finished mask, I’ll create a gallery of your handiwork in a follow up post! Enjoy…

  1. I do own a “furry” night mask…very nice with the soft sensation of a fur…Of course it’s fake fur but it does its purpose…

  2. BTW, a totally different subject, I’ve learned that Ms Fisher’s Mysteries is coming at the end of the month in your country. I could see photos but I was blocked to see the preview from ABC in my country, the USA. I’m a big fan and I hope the serie will be a good one. I don’t know if you are a fan, but if you don’t mind to let us know about it that would be wonderful…
