The Coronavirus pandemic has changed the way we think, speak, act and dress. For the most part, masks are here to stay and we have to start embracing them. State Government authorities have mandated the use of protective masks in public places, especially in areas where social distancing (six- feet distance between two people) is not possible.

Since masks are here to stay, we’ve compiled a list of budget-friendly, reusable and aesthetically pleasing masks – some of which are made by Indian designers. However, if you’re looking to make masks at home, you can check this tutorial for steps to follow.
