A QUICK, EASY and NECESSARY way to put our crochet skills to a cause! Button Buddy Ear Saver (Mask Extenders/ Mask Mate/Mask Adapter ) for our Medical Professionals!

We’re all trying to do our part right now! While some of us have to stay home, we have the opportunity to help out those of us who are “essential” and can’t. Medical workers are the brave heroes of the COVID-19 pandemic. Having to wear a mask all day everyday is a necessity, but it can cause a lot of rubbing and discomfort on the ears. Ear Savers/mask extenders allow workers to safely wear mask, without having to cause their poor ears extra discomfort! Make a bunch and give them to all the nurses/doctors/first responders/heroes in your life!
