A How to print and fold thick paper/ numbers hidden The numbers will be inside of your mask
(1) Print out your patterns on thin paper. (Do not scale the pattern) (2) Glue your patterns on the backside of your cardboard you would like to use. We recommend Spray Glue or a glue stick. Dont use glue that wets the paper too much. Your printed pattern lines will be on the inside of your final mask. (3) Cut out the patterns along the solid
cutting lines for each piece. The dashed lines are the folding lines so make sure not to cut them. (If you want to use adhesive tape you can cut away the glue flaps) (4) Score the outward and inward folding lines with a thick needle or a stencil pen, then crease and fold along the lines. The dashed lines are either valley or mountain folds. Make sure to fold the patterns in the right direction.

How to assemble Assembly (5) Find the matching numbers and glue the corresponding sides together. We recommend two options.
(6) After completing the mask we recommend to glue the headband together on the final page. Tape it to the inside to get an optimal fit of the mask. (7) Let your creativity flow. You can decorate and color your mask anyway you like.
Option 1 / Easy Adhesive tape Use adhesive tape to fix the corresponding sides from the outside. pro: easy and fast contra: tape is visible from the outside
Have fun we woulD lovE to See yOur CreatioNs.
Option 2 / Advanced Glue We recommend wood glue express to glue the flaps together. Just use a thin layer otherwise the paper gets too soggy. Use a small brush to apply the glue on the flap. After drying the woodglue gets invisible. You can also use a glue stick but the connection is not very durable.
