"The next thing I'm going to show you is called the "mask" with the veil. Again, this is building off the envelope. So we're going to start out holding your material with a little bit hanging down from each finger of your fingertips, we're going to bring it up, we're going to close in front for the envelope, grab the material, run your hand across, and this time you're going to bring the opening all the way down to your eyes. And what you're going to do is you're going to wrap it around your head, and then what I do is I take one hand and grab all the material right there. And bring it forward, and this is called the mask, where just your eyes are showing. So again, we'll show that move one more time. Again holding your veil with length on each side, we're going to go into the envelope, we're going to bring it up, close, make sure you are in your proper posture. Drag your hand across, and then the opening's going to come down to your eyes, and we're going to bring it around to the back, and one hand will grab all the material in back. And this is called the mask."
