Did you make something? Do you want the fleeting rush of endorphins that come with affirmation from strangers? Do you think what you made is neat? Share it here!

Paintings, movies, music, drawings, models, gardens, houses, snowmen, sandcastles - if you made it, you can post it.

RULES:

Some things you make are not to be shared. These include:

Do not be a jerk.

- No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, classism, or bigotry of any kind.

- Don't try to sell stuff unless people ask. You can post your Etsy (or similar) if someone prompts you. No spamming self-promotion.

I patterned it all from scratch, too!

Sewn both by hand & machine. Has a velcro closure on the front of the neck! Also super light, so your head & neck won't hurt while wearing it (I'm very proud of that)! I lined the mouth with soft fleece and the inside of the head with satin. It's really comfortable!

It's not a mask, so you can't see out of it if you pull it over your face!! It's meant to be worn more like a hood.

If you have any questions about how it was made, feel free to ask!

Black fur is really difficult to photograph.. it looks better in-person!

That looks so nice and warm! Can imagine it’ll keep you very well protected in the winter days :)
But I guess it’s not very weatherproof?

Anyway, great job! I love it :)

Oh, it would keep you cozy, for sure!

It's not "weatherproof", per se, but the eyes won't be damaged by the elements, the nose has been meticulously sealed, and the faux fur can be dried pretty quickly when hung up & stored properly. The only different thing that may have to be done is to comb/brush through it as it dries.

Thank you!
