Origami mask case

Here’s how to make a simple mask case just by folding paper.

Fold the top and bottom edges toward the center, place the mask inside, and then fold the left and right sides toward the center to wrap it.

Rotate the paper 90 degrees and open the folded top section from the inside.

Fold the paper in half by bringing the top and bottom together, then tuck the section you opened earlier into the inside to finish.

When using, we recommend disinfecting the mask with alcohol before placing it in the case.

It doesn’t take much space or time to make, so it’s a handy item for temporarily storing your mask when you’re out and about.
