Fact moves into its third week as a Covid Mask Maker



FACT Pleated and Beak Masks  Image - agies

FACT DESIGNS is now in their third week of making masks and so far all going well. 

WE have introduced four categories - floral kingdom, wild life portraits,  patterns and custom.

Channeled and molded by the new challenges imposed on us by the Covid 19 lockdown,  Fact Designs has had to get creative and come up with some new  ideas.  So I chose to make masks using images from my existing collection,  therefor still staying true to my ethos and style. As masks are now mandatory in South Africa I knew that every small business with a sewing machine would be making them and the market would be flooded.

I had to come up with something different that would make FACT masks stand out.

Luckily my fabric printer lives at my home so I was able to get to work  during lockdown and eventually came up with a double layered pleated mask showing my unique images.

A braided string was used to tye up both sides. 

This elephant was photographed at Orpen Dam in the Kruger
National Park, we stopped there for breakfast
one morning and watched a herd of elephant move across
the veldt towards us and the dam.

GOSH! Its been a while.

Looks like I have been otherwise engaged as I have not updated my blog in a long while.  I guess I got side tracked and have been busy focussing on other things.  That is not to say that Faces Around Cape Town has suffered, we have been hard at work all this time .....creating, making up and presenting our new creations at my shop at the V and A Waterfront in Cape Town, which was going very well until Lockdown in South Africa.  That started three days ago, so I am now taking this time to update and will get my blog back up to speed and show you some of my new creations. I've got at least three weeks of down time so   WATCH THIS SPACE......   more info contact me on jo@factdesigns.co.za
