Washington’s mask mandate requires everyone to wear a mask when in a public indoor space.  As a result, I’m putting on and taking off my mask while I run errands or when I got out to eat.  And when I take it off, I’m usually folding it up in my purse or shoving it in my pocket.  So I went looking for a better way.

Remember eyeglass chains?  Your Nana probably used them to keep her readers handy when she wasn’t wearing them.  Well, they’re back in fashion.  But instead of preventing me from losing my designer sunglasses, I’m using them to keep my face mask at the ready.

This ATLanyard with clips on the end has a versatile black bead chain, and comes in at an affordable $12.  This simple metal chain also caught my eye.  Or pick up this easy braided cord eyeglass chain in pale pink.

If you had told me a year ago that I’d be searching for a fashionable, functional way to keep my new Graf & Lantz face mask handy, I would have told you that you were crazy.
