"That's my first time crafting," she said. "I'm going to pull out my glitter gun later," said Ardern in a Facebook video showing her crafting a simple red mask, the colour of her Labour Party.
In the video made with local community health leader Dave Letele, Ardern, who faces a general election in October, can be seen putting her mask together with a patch of fabric and two elastic hair ties.
The Pacific nation of 5 million people had seemed to stop community transmission of COVID-19 due to tough lockdown measures but reintroduced restrictions in its largest city, Auckland, this month following a fresh outbreak.
