Mask Dealies ... or stoppers for adjusting the elastic

So many of you asked in comments and emails what the dealies are that I used for the elastic adjustments,

These are them. They are small on one side and a little bit larger on the other - so you thread the elastic thru them, and then you can just sort of squeeze them and slide to adjust.


Here is the How to that came with them:




Mine came in Black and White. the only problem I see is that if you pull them off, you will lose them... but I don't think they come off very easily.

Here is the Link from Amazon for them:



Hope that helps!

Thank you! What a great way to be sure that the masks we make really can fit anyone!

what happens if you knot the end of elastic making it stay so it doesn't fall off

If you put a bead on that loop, would that hold on the thingy?

Thanks so much. Also making masks again, sad they are still needed.

thanks Alycia. I am working on testing a cheaper version of this tube using a readily available item and will let you know how it goes....

Yes, thank you. I have a couple of masks that have stoppers like these, and they are helpful to customize the masks.

Thanks. I think if I add a small pony bead to the loop, that the adjuster won't be able to be pulled off (little hands play with everything).
