"Handmade" #17/ 2023 | Mickey Mouse themed mask

Greetings, steemers!

Always happy to be back at this cool contest organized by our friend @strecoza who's doing an excellent job here on Steemit week after week.

You're all invited to take part of this contest, and show your skills. To enter, just click on this link and follow the instructions.

This week, I am bringing an old creation to you, because I'm still working on a new one, sorry. Since it is old (from 3 years ago) it doesn't have a step by step tutorial as I use to share with you.

Anyway, this creation has a story, that's why I chose to go with it instead of waiting till I have my new creation done.

Here I go...

The story of this mask, as you may deduce, started when COVID-19 pandemic was announced.

When people people started freaking out about the use of masks, there were a lot of people taking advantage of it and getting all the masks from the pharmacies/drug stores in order to resell them at a higher cost, as it is usual in my country. After a few months of seeing this, I found a post on Facebook in which they showed different models of animated masks, and I loved it, so I decided to sew a few for myself and for giving away.

These are some screenshots I took at the time:

As you can see, this is where my idea came from.

But the fact is, when I began sewing, I quickly dropped it because I found it too difficult. It took me months to retake it. Then I did better than when I started, it was exciting for me.

I was sewing like a machine, no lie.

Since this thing wasn't for sale, I didn't care about making it all in the same kind of fabric, so I used different kinds, but it looked decent after all.

I did my best triyng to sew like a machine, seriously...

Anyway, the day I finally finished the mask arrived, I was excited seeing the results of my dedication. I couldn't believe my eyes. It was looking very good, actually.

And that very day, I received some terrible news: One of my dear uncles had died. Wow! I felt so terrible for that loss, that I erased the album I was listening to at the moment I received the news, and I decided not to give that mask to anyone as it was cursed or something.

And this is it. Thanks for reading if you did :)

Excuse me for always bringing my negative stuff here, sorry :'(

I hope you're all fine! I'll see you next week with my new creation, but for now, I will delight myself with your craftings :)

I am so sorry for your loss. Death is inevitable, you can't blame anyone for it. You are creative and did a great job creating this mask. It looks good.

Oh, thanks! I'm afraid it doesn't look as good in the pics as it looks physically :) it makes me happy to know that. And thanks for reading!
