If you are washing your mask I hope you are not drying it.. because honestly alot of people are drying them and they are either breaking or becoming to loose.. So I hope you aren't drying.. because if you are that's what possible could happen.. I wash my masks all the time.. but i refuse to dry them I let them air dry. :P

The problems are you can't tell which ones are not any good and only give you a false sense of security or how many are not worth the money they ask for.

My neighbor sews a bunch of masks, so we can get them from her. They work really well and the can be washed.

How do you know if they are working well unless you have them tested by a trusted laboratory?

Etsy has plenty of cute masks. I've bought about 7 from there.

Someone gave me some where a filter can be inserted and I made a few.  I also have some disposable ones for the car just in case I leave home without them.

My son-in-law's mother sews so she made all of a mask from scrap material that she had.  She had thought at one time that she would make some to sell, but I don't think she has.

A lot of people are making their own masks. I think that is great if you are making them tight enough to cover the mouth and nose.
