I need a masquerade mask! Help?

I'm willing to make one but I don't know how so instructions or a place to buy them would help. Please and Thank youI need a masquerade mask! Help?
a costume or party store will have one. but it is really fun making one. to make one first buy a really simple mask in plastic. they should have the eyes cut out already. so it is just a piece of plastic with eyeholes and string attached. if u want to hold it just take a stick and tape it to one side. next take glue and water and mix them together. than use papertowel and lay strips of it on your pastic mask. use plasticine to create details, then cover it in paper towel again, then paint it . i think it is much easier to buy one. have fun! =]I need a masquerade mask! Help?
Happy Holidays Sarah! Go to your local ';Michaels, Beverlys, Party-Time etc...Purchase a plain (any color) mask. Kind of like Zorro or the Lone Ranger wore. Get some glue ie; Aileene's Quick-Dry/Tacky Glue, or just plain Elmer's will do. Buy a Bag of ';feathers';, some ';fine'; glitter and a small pkg of rhinestones/crystals. Play around with the placement of your items...then go 4 it! OXXO Moonshine F.Y.I. You might want to purchase some ';metallic'; elastic cord/string or thin satan ribbon to replace the cheap elastic cord that comes with the mask. P.S. You could also ';gate'; the elastic cord and hot-glue a chopstick/wooden dowel etc...to the side and hold it like they do at ';mardi-gras'; or those grand ';cotillions';! LOL!
iparty or any party store probably has them =D
print off a photo of your face so it is life size, then draw on it, the shape of mask you want. then trace or copy onto card and add sequins, glitter or whatever you want. you can either have it tied to a chopstick which you can then decorate, or you can tie it round your head with some nice ribbon
go to party city or any party supply store
