first thing to do is fuse the bags together by folding them neatly and evenly between paper then iron on hot keeping the iron moving continually. when it is fused ( melted together) and the thickness is strong yet thin enough to cut easily with scissors it is done. I drew and cut out a templete for the mask to fit my face. I then cut out the mask and layed it between paper towels and ironed it again. I cut out the mask and then was able to paint it with gold acrylic paint. When it dried I layed lace on it and modge podged it together. I took the wire flowers and leaves and hot glued them onto the front. Lastly i took the ribbon and glued it to the back as a tie. because it is fused plastic it is very light yet extreemly sturdy.
