2020 has not been an ordinary year. Since the end of March, we've been mostly at home, only going out for essentials. Although we had a brief return to a new normal for a few weeks, things quickly headed back to stricter measures here in Melbourne.
Despite the weariness of the same-ness each day, kids at home and it generally being a difficult time for many in our community, I started making some masks when it become recommended and then mandatory in Victoria and they were a huge hit! My Etsy store only gets a handful of orders a year, with most of my sales at markets which have all been cancelled and postponed due to Covid-19.
Although I'm at the end of my mask making (there's now probably an over supply of them), I am grateful and thankful for everyone who purchased a mask and supported my small business.
