Face Shield Calligraphy

July 14, 2020

New PPE, who dis?!? ;)

I call this look: “Face shield, but make it fashion.” ♥

In the healthcare world, frontline workers are not wearing face shields merely as a fashion accessory but rather as a necessity to care for very sick, vulnerable, and highly contagious patients. It’s safe to say, though, that this piece of personal protective gear does take up quite a bit of space on our faces... So why not make it look a bit more aesthetically pleasing? 

Since face shields have become a daily staple in my workplace, I decided to have some fun with it and really embrace the new PPE guidelines by including my own personal flair & twist.

Thank you to the amazingly fabulous & incredibly talented Tia from https://www.dottheicrossthet.net for beautifying my face shield and helping me to not feel like a sad dog with an “E-collar cone” on my head. Tia is a local calligrapher who went above & beyond to make the face shield that I wear when I take care of my NICU babies super unique and creative. 

Not only is this face covering cute and stylish, but it’s also FUNCTIONAL! I am so in love & cannot wait to wear this bad boy to work!

Not gonna lie, it’s still pretty hard to #Smize behind this thing, but I’m doing my best, Tyra Banks.
