While they may not necessarily practical or best protection against COVID-19, they are creative. 

Above is a milk jug turned mask for the dairy lover.   I think this has better applications as a Halloween mask.

#LOCKDOWN 2020 - Creative Grocery Shopping Gear

As we need to be cautious when going to the grocery store to pick up supplies, people have gotten creative in making up their gear.  

These pictures were posted on Facebook (can't find source now) but thought I would share them here.

I think the above fella might end up a Darwin Award winner, or at least honorable mention.  

Never is a good idea to put a plastic bag over your head!

 This lady is signaling she is ready to party once she leaves the store; just has to move the hat on top of her head.

 Looks like the Unknown Comic is getting some groceries before doing a show.


His nickname can be Jughead


That cone fashioned out of newspapers make him looks like one of the drawings of doctors from the 1300's from the Black Plague; or one of the "Spy vs. Spy" characters from a Mad Magazine.

Even the Walmart worker looks concerned watching the woman wearing a comforter cover.   I would think it would hold in too much C02, but perhaps she finds wearing the comforter cover comforting.


I guess he is horsing around.


SpongeBob's Mom!

I don't think he will have to worry about social distancing as this almost looks like a Khaki version of the Grim Reaper and imagine people will give him a wide berth.

This looks more like a DIY Sauna suit than it does to protect against a virus.   

This one might not be practical or comfortable, but at least it looks cool.

QUARANTINE ACTIVITY: CREATE AN INVISIBLE WALL WITH CLING WRAP AND WATCH CATS

Not sure what the internet would be like if it weren't for cat videos.

While I personally would not waste the cling wrap, it was interesting to see how these six cats handle the "invisible wall".

The channel that made this video Kittisaurus has other cat videos if you enjoy watching cat videos.

#LOCKDOWN2020 - People are getting creative with making masks

It's an idea...perhaps not necessarily a great one as that looks darn uncomfortable and opening the mask kind of defeats the purpose of wearing one, but it is an idea.

Although I think this was posted as a joke on Facebook, but I can see it becoming a trend for sunbathers this Summer.

Because when you are stuck at home, you have to work with what you have on hand, Facebook user Nick Smerkz posted hotdogs on a bun crafted to resemble Disney Princesses.

 I think Belle looks the most tasty, but have to give props to Rapunzel for being most original.

I recall from blizzards and being snowed in that sometimes those were the more memorable family times and if yours is as well you might want to create a commemorate hand print plaque with items you likely have in your pantry (except the varnish - could add that later), especially if you have young children as they can see how they have grown over the years.
