With masks already mandatory on public transport and soon shops will enforce the wearing of them.

So there has never been a better time to buy a mask that has its own personal touch.

That's where Sophie's Stitches comes in with a DIY mask kit for kids.

If you're struggling to get your kids to wear masks this could be the perfect opportunity to get them a mask that they will be more than happy to wear.

You can credit this great idea to Sophie's niece Gracie.

For £15 you can buy one plain mask with a pack of 10 fabric pens.

The pens are washable so you can redesign your mask multiple times.

It costs £22 to buy two masks with a pack of 10 fabric pens.

The masks are suitable for ages eight and up.

Sophie's Stitches also does a host of other mask designs from butterflies to dogs so you can wear a mask that is more to your taste than the standard disposable ones.

Sophie also made the Italian flag masks worn by the staff at Shambles - who you can find out more about HERE
