Why Make Angels from Disposable Masks?
Upcycling is becoming more popular, and for good reason. Instead of creating waste, we reuse materials and give them a new purpose. Disposable masks are made from soft fabric that is easy to fold and shape, making them ideal for crafting.
Angels symbolize hope, protection, and positivity, which makes them perfect for festive decoration or thoughtful handmade gifts.
You can use:
- White masks for a classic angel look
- Blue masks for a modern style (you can also spray-paint them)
Perfect Craft for Kids and Beginners
This DIY angel craft does not require special skills or expensive supplies. With just two masks and a pair of scissors, you can create a beautiful angel.
You can also customize the angels with decorations if you like. This makes the project suitable for:

- Family DIY activities
- Eco-friendly craft workshops
Materials Needed
Basic materials:
- 2 clean, unused disposable face masks
- Scissors
Optional decoration materials:
- Beads or wooden balls

⚠️ Important: Always use new or hygienically cleaned masks. Do not use worn masks for crafting.
Step-by-Step: How to Make an Angel from Masks
- Take both masks and fold them in a zigzag (accordion style).
- Place one mask vertically over the center of the other mask.
- Fold the ends downward and hold them together.
- Use the ear loop of the mask to tie both masks at the top. This also forms the angel’s head.
- You can add a wooden bead or pearl for the head if you want.
- Gently spread and shape the fabric to form the dress and wings.
- Cut the lower ear loop.
- Open and tie the side loops together to create a hanging loop.
Now your angel is ready!
Extra Decoration Ideas
- Spray-paint the angel in white, gold, or silver (do this outdoors)

You can also make angels using cotton wool or crepe paper if masks are not available.
