jewellery Can Be
"Popped" Together
The "do-it-yourself" craze is
bloasereing into the jewellery field
to.,r .spring,.
An imaginative designer has now
Madebeads of polythene, the Waxy
tplastie commonly found in kitchen-
'Ware,. and on each bead he has
frflOilltled: a little knob which fits
into every other bead. They can he
popped together without the use
of .string to create a fascinating
range of necklace and bracelet
styles.
The first polythene beads on the
market relied on the pastel glow
of the plastic _itself for beauty, but
new pearl-like coatings have now
made their appearance in spark-
ling colors, all the way from bright
coral - through pastel pinks and
blues. to chalk white,
This adaptable new necklet is

Storing away winter • woollies•
used to involve a lot of time and
a liberal supply 'of camphor, but
today it can he spe—lily done with
some pOlythene plastic film and a
hot iron.
Polythene is the tough, trans-
lifseent film the grocer uses to
package fruits, vegetables and
other edibles. Envelopes and bags
made from it -also protect a variety
of textile articles. These wrappings
make ideal storage bags for your
blankets, clothing and linens.
When re-using a polythene mer-
chandise hag for this purpose,
make sure that it isn't one of the
perforated variety required for
certain produce. A tightly-sealed
mothproof storage pack can be
produced quite easily at home with
an iron and a strip of brown
wrapping paper. Here's how:
Place the article to be stored in
the polythene• hag, Select a piece
of wax-free brown wrapping paper
and cut a narrow strip about three
inches wide and as long as the
opening to be sealed. Fold the
strip- in half lengthwise. Set the
control on your iron to "wool" or
heat It to a moderate temperature.
Then, sandwich the twvo edges of
the polythene hag opening between
the brown paper.
Using a heavy medium pressure,
run the tip of the iron slowly along
the folded edge of the paper ex-
tending the tip inward to a depth
of about one-quarter to one-half
inch. Keep the iron moving steadi-
ly but slowly. Don't retrace your
path. After allowing a minute or so
for the heat-seal to cool, strip the
brown paper from the plastic film.
Test the seal by tugging at both
sides of the seam. If the two pieces
of plastic aren't permanently weld-
ed together, your iron was either
too cool or you moved it too quick-
ly. Try it again, this time going
at a. slower pace and using a; little
nwre heat. Don't press too hard
and don't let the iron stand still
for a. second or, you will produce
a 'llolb'•• instead.' of', a seam.
If -all the polythene openings'
Iiive been carefully sealed, and the
article has been cleaned thorough-
ly, it won't be necessary to use a
moth repellent on any article you
wish to store. When you want the
article, from its protective wrap-
ping, just cut along the seam with
a pair of . scissors.
