You can make paper animal masks at home with your own hands. The templates on our website will help you with this, which can be easily printed and then cut along the contour.

DIY carnival mask: simple manufacturing ideas

If you need a carnival mask for a festive outfit, and you haven’t found one suitable in the store, don’t worry, it’s quite possible to make such an accessory yourself at home from scrap materials.

The mask can be made from paper, cardboard, fabric, plaster, modeling mass; and use rhinestones, sequins, sparkles, beads, etc. as decorations.

We bring to your attention 4 of the simplest ideas for creating a carnival mask with your own hands.

Carnival mask made of paper

This is the simplest and most economical option for creating a carnival mask. The main element for creating a mask is a paper template.

Materials and tools:

  • a template with an image of a carnival mask (can be found on the Internet and printed or drawn, see examples of templates at the end of the article),
  • thick A4 sheet,
  • cardboard,
  • PVA glue,
  • hole puncher,
  • simple pencil,
  • scissors,
  • scotch,
  • rubber,
  • acrylic paints (you can use ordinary gouache),
  • decorations: rain, glitter, stickers, rhinestones.

How to do:

  1. Glue the template onto the cardboard so that the mask does not become deformed in the future.
  2. Color the mask. Paints are only useful if the image was printed in black and white. When buying paints, do not look closely at watercolors - they harm the quality of the paper, no matter how thick it is.
  3. After painting and drying the mask, cut it out along the contours.
  4. Using a hole punch, make holes for the elastic bands along the edges of the mask, and to prevent the mask from tearing in these places during wearing, reinforce the surface around the holes with tape.
  5. Now thread the elastic through the holes and secure each end with a knot.
  6. Before doing this, try on the mask to adjust the length of the elastic.
  7. All that remains is to decorate the mask with glitter and so on.

Carnival mask made from modeling clay

The process of making a carnival mask from mass is very long, but not difficult.

Materials and tools:

  • white modeling mass,
  • paper,
  • scissors,
  • pattern,
  • penknife,
  • face mockup,
  • multi-colored acrylic paints,
  • sparkles, rhinestones, beads.

How to do:

  1. First, cut out a template from paper.
  2. Roll out the modeling mass with a rolling pin into a thin cake (the thickness should not exceed four millimeters).
  3. Place the paper template on top of the rolled out mass and cut along the contour with a sharp knife so that the same shape is obtained from the “dough”. Don't forget to cut holes on the sides for the elastic.
  4. Now very carefully lift the mask from the table and place it on the mock-up of a human face (read Mannequin Head for Making a Carnival Mask for how to make it). Leave it to harden for twelve hours, or better yet for a day.
  5. The mask must dry exclusively on its own, without the help of hair dryers or other steam heating, otherwise it will become deformed.
  6. When the mask has completely hardened and dried, paint it. You can, of course, at your own discretion, but it is better to give preference to the color of the bird whose year is coming.
  7. Additionally, you can decorate it with convex patterns from the same modeling mass, and with decorations from the list.

Making a carnival mask using papier-mâché technique

The papier-mâché technique is also called maching. This is a very affordable method of making a carnival mask.

Materials and tools:

  • round air balloon,
  • wide bowl for diluting adhesive liquid,
  • petrolatum,
  • PVA glue,
  • water,
  • toilet paper or napkins (paper towels),
  • any colored paints,
  • stationery knife.

How to do:

  1. First, inflate the balloon to the size of your face for the mask.
  2. Tear the paper into small pieces.
  3. Dilute the glue with water in a ratio of 2:1.
  4. If you don’t have PVA glue on hand, starch or flour can be an alternative.
  5. Spread Vaseline on the inflated balloon to prevent the paper from sticking to the rubber of the balloon.
  6. Dip each piece of paper into the adhesive mixture and place it on the ball so that they intersect and cover each other.
  7. Cover the ball with paper in four layers.
  8. Leave the ball with paper until completely dry.
  9. Check that the paper on the ball is dry - pierce it with a needle.
  10. After this, pierce the ball that is under the paper.
  11. Next comes a very important step: you need to carefully cut the paper blank into two identical parts with a stationery knife. Using the same knife, make holes for the eyes and for attaching the elastic on the sides. If you wish, you can make holes for the nostrils and mouth. For adults, these holes are not important, but if you are making a mask for a child, then you definitely need to make these additional holes so that he feels comfortable and can breathe easier in the mask.
  12. If the mask has any unevenness or defects, sand it with sandpaper. All that remains is to decorate the mask and you can dress up for the holiday.

How to sew a carnival mask from fabric

This is the best option for making a mask in addition to a costume for a children's party. If you are at least a little familiar with cutting and sewing techniques, it will not be difficult for you to sew a mask for your child using a template, of which there are many on the Internet. You can make such a mask either by hand or on a sewing machine.

Materials and tools:

  • fleece,
  • pattern,
  • threads,
  • rubber,
  • scissors.

How to do:

  1. From the base material, cut out two identical mask parts.
  2. Using a zigzag stitch, sew the finishing pieces to one of the parts of the mask.
  3. Sew and turn the two parts of the mask inside out (just leave holes for the elastic).
  4. Insert the elastic into the holes and stitch the mask along the outer edge again. All that remains is to decorate the mask with various details.

DIY New Year's masks for children: templates, patterns, master classes

Children's MASKS - 122 New Year's, carnival templates.

Hello everyone, we have finally gotten to the topic of New Year's masks for children - made of paper, cardboard, felt. Carnival masks in the form of wild animals (masks of a bear, wolf, fox, hare, squirrel, hedgehog) and domestic (masks of a cow, pig, bull, sheep, hen and chicks). Pet masks (dog, cat, hamster). You can make all these masks with your own hands from paper and cardboard or soft material (such as felt, formiam). In this article you will find ready-made samples of masks and patterns.

All carnival masks can be divided into categories based on their location on the face and the degree of closure of the front part.

Carnival masks for adults

Before we start making a mask, let's first figure out what materials we'll need. The simplest version of a carnival mask is a ready-made template that you just need to print. This mask is suitable for those who have absolutely no time for creativity. Among them you will find many beautiful carnival masks. You will need to work hard on other options, but the result will exceed your wildest expectations.


To please, surprise and delight your friends, family and loved ones, you can make
New Year's cards for the New Year with your own hands. After all, such a postcard can convey much more bright feelings to the recipient and bring special joy and pride to the author.

Mosaic mask made from broken toys

Every time, before decorating the New Year tree, you have to sort through the Christmas tree decorations and separate the broken ones from the whole ones. Of course, every broken ball is a great pity, because many of the decorations are dear to us as memories of holidays spent with our family. But broken toys can be given a second chance by decorating a carnival mask with a mirror mosaic. You will need:

  • a plastic mask from the store or a mask made from papier-mâché;
  • several broken glass balls in matching colors;
  • thick fabric or towel;
  • rhinestones, feathers;
  • hammer, pliers;
  • braid;
  • glue gun
  1. Remove the fasteners from the broken balls and break the balls with a hammer into small fragments, having first wrapped the toys in thick cloth.
  2. Use pliers to unscrew the fasteners, place them on a hard surface and lightly tap them with a hammer until the parts become flat. The result should be something like snowflakes or flowers.
  3. Glue these elements to the top of the mask and along the sides. Place sequins or a sparkling crystal in the middle of each element.
  4. Apply a little glue from a glue gun to the mask and glue the pieces of Christmas decorations, leaving small gaps. This way the pattern will look more like a mosaic pattern.
  5. Decorate one of the side parts of the mask with a lush feather.
  6. Measure the circumference of your head, cut two pieces of braid or ribbon, 6-8 centimeters longer than your head circumference. Attach the tape to the mask and let the product dry.

Face mask template made from gauze and cotton wool

If you urgently need a mask, then take note of this manufacturing method. It has been tested for years; it doesn’t even require a thread and a needle.

This bandage is considered disposable, but it has an advantage over the factory version made of spunbond. Pharmaceutical products need to be changed every 2 hours, and you can stay in gauze and cotton for 3-4 hours.

You will need:

  • gauze measuring 100 x 50 cm.
  • cotton wool
  • scissors

How to make a mask for an adult:

  1. Make a liner from cotton wool measuring 20 x 30 cm, 1-2 cm thick.
  2. Spread the gauze and place a cotton pad in the center. Fold the edges of the gauze on both sides and cover the cotton pad with them.
  3. Cut the loose ends in half lengthwise. You will get 2 pairs of ties. The bandage is ready and can be used for its intended purpose.

The template is for a standard adult mask. It should cover your face from ear to ear, covering your nose, mouth, and chin.

But the template can be changed. The size directly depends on the age and individual build of a person. Even in adults, the distance from the bridge of the nose to the chin and from ear to ear can vary.

Paper face mask

When you don’t have a ready-made mask at hand, but you need one very urgently, then the paper version will come in handy. You can use paper towels, multi-layer napkins and even toilet paper.

It is important to choose a paper through which you can breathe without suffocating.

Take one section of paper towel. The more dense it is, the better. We fold it like an accordion and fasten rubber bands on each side, which then need to be put on the ears.

If you don’t have a rubber band, you can tie or glue a linen band or make ties from a bandage.

You need to understand that such a mask will last only a few minutes. But it’s enough to go out to the store and buy something quickly. And it doesn't cost much.

Papier-mâché masks

However, you can make a mask for children yourself, and you will spend minimal time and effort, but you will get great pleasure communicating with your child. Coloring pages can be chosen as the basis for the mask.
