Mask Contest!
We think it’s real swell to wear your masks, and we want to see them! Tag #rickrackmakesmasks in your lay flat mask post for a chance to win a snazzy $200 gift card to our online store. Each unique mask entry counts and you can enter as many times as you’d like! Want some bonus points? Each entry made from RICK RACK fabric counts as two entries! How do you like them apples?
Winner will be drawn at random and announced on Friday, July 31st, 2020.
Contest is on Instagram only, and is open to our Canadian customers. Tag #rickrackmakesmasks so we can see your creations. Have a private profile? Not on Insta? Well have no fear, cool cat! Submit your entries to rickracksocial@gmail.com for your chance to win. We can’t wait to share your entries and see what you folks are making.
Need a little inspo? Below is a list of patterns and videos that you may find helpful. Have a swell pattern that isn’t on this list? Feel free to share it with us so we can update our resources as we go. Please note that the masks made with these patterns and videos are not medical-grade masks and offer only a minimal physical barrier. No medical claims are being made with regard to their usage.
Stay safe, crafty friends. We can’t wait to see what you create!
