By now most of us know that we should be wearing masks when we go outside (if you didn’t know that, then listen, you should be wearing masks when you go outside). If you don’t have any yet, don’t worry; you aren’t trapped indoors forever. We can go outside, we have the technology... which is just a slightly geeky way of saying you can buy your very-own face masks from the sites below. most of them are even businesses located right here in Seattle.

Etsy

Etsy is full of decorative oddies like kitten-themed handcuffs and Christmas ornaments with python ribs inside, but it's also one of your best options for picking up cloth face masks that are not only functional, but stylish as well.

A few top options include ToughCookieClothings masks for $5.99 each, available in black and pink, and infinitekidsco’s multi-colored options for $6.99.

But the real draw with Etsy is your ability to narrow your search by location. The great thing about doing this: You'll be supporting local artisans and vendors on Etsy. For example, you can look for face masks for sale in just the Seattle area.

To change your geographic search area, scroll down through the filters until you get to "Shop location." Then you can type in a city or state, and you'll filter your product results.
