My Inappropriateness Knows No Bounds.

Note to self: make your face presentable before taking pictures you intend to post on the Internet.
Yesterday my friend and I discussed whether or not it was a good idea for her to attend Jazz Fest in New Orleans, in light of the looming pandemic. I jokingly said I would bedazzle her a mask to wear.
We all know how my sick little mind works. On my lunch I decided to whip up a few jazzed up masks. I could not actually lay my hands on a bedazzler, but I did have plenty of glitter and puff paint!

Louisiana people will buy ANYTHING with a fleur de lis on it...don't lie. You know it's true.

One final word before I go, dear readers. If you concerned about the flu and wish to wear a mask, this kind really isn't gonna do much for you. They become saturated within a few hours, not to mention your eyes are still exposed (mucous membranes anyone??). Ewwww, I said mucous.

Behehehehehe, its funny cause its true. All of it. you know if we were sitting in Cali we would so be winin it up and makin these. Course we would be smart enough to just use real gas masks should we have to enter contaminated areas. Who has a real gas mask, ooh me!

Funny!!! But not so funny about the flu, ugh.... You might seriously need them, maybe you could market pretty ones for the eyes.

those are stunning, and I like your lack of bounds. But, if you really must wear one, be fashionable right? And if you make ones for the eyes we are all going to look like monster flies. Ewwww.

OMG!!! That is hilarious!!! This is a great idea...you know people really do want to wear masks, even if they only work for about 30 minutes at a time and they don't protect the eyes, because in their warped minds, some protection is better than no protection but the only reason they don't is because they are afraid of what other people will think...
or is that just me?
Found you on The Rambler!
