You will obviously need a mask and your glasses. Other than that you only need two other items.

You will also need two buttons.

You will also need two teeny tiny rubber bands.

Insert one rubber band through the holes on each button so that you have loops like are shown below.

To make this easy, pinch the end of the rubber band and place through one hole and repeat for the opposite hole.

This is a very bad idea as the mask has a large gap on either side at the cheeks. The mask should fit snug without gaps otherwise this is the perfect entry for the air-born virus

@Peter, try a tack shop or western store Horse owners and particularly showers of horses use them to braid the manes
