Show I "GAY GADGETS" Associated Newspapers WNU Features. By NANCY PEPPER SCHOOL DAZE Now that you're safely back in school again, or will be soon (did we hear any groans in the back there?), wouldn't you like to make some typical school daze gadget pins? Well, here they are, said she, not waiting for an answer. Teacher's Pet Use a cork to make a face that looks like a ieach- er, with black yarn parted in the middle and drawn tightly over the top to represent hair and with eye glasses twisted out of the wire frnm a mill- hnttlo . I Stubbies Collect all the old pencil stubs you can find. Tie yarn around the top of each and finish with a little lit-tle loop to fasten to a braided yarn necklace. Super smooth over sweaters. sweat-ers. Cover the pencil points with nail polish in different colors. Nail Polish Nonsense. It's a long time since we've talked about nail polish in this column! But that doesn't mean that the teens aren't still doing everything with it but drinking it. In fact, crazy colors, col-ors, such as green and yellow, are the current fad-shion. Sort of exotic and on the repulsive side. Handy Tips Teens aren't satisfied satis-fied with ten finger nails when they go on a nail polish rampage. Some girls find that a hand from an old doll makes a wonderful lapel pin, especially when the finger tips are painted to match their own nails. And have you seen that cute celluloid cellu-loid barrette that looks like two hands? Buy one for your George Washington hair-do and don't forget to color the finger tips to match your own nails. Stop and Go Nothing like confusing confus-ing your public by painting a circle of green nail polish on the heel of one huarache, and. a circle of red on the other. Mix Your Colors Don't throw away the dregs of used nail polish bottles. Mix 'em all together; thin the mixture, if necessary, with a few drops of remover; then use on your nails. You will have a truly EXCLUSIVE EX-CLUSIVE color. Case Conservation Having trouble trou-ble with those wartime lipstick cases made of cardboard? They will last much longer if you coat them with colorless nail polish. Pretty smart, huh? top and colored with red nail polish. pol-ish. A bit of black and white check material makes a prim collar. Cross two pieces of wood, behind the cork face, one decorated to represent repre-sent a ruler, the other representing a pencil. Paint on the features, on the face, with nail polish and finish to a high gloss with colorless polish. pol-ish. Very different from those cannibal can-nibal faces everybody's been making mak-ing out of corks and so-o-o timely Slick Slate Color a piece of cardboard card-board with black ink to represent a slate and edge with red and white yarn like a slate border. Hang from the bottom a tiny pencil stub and a miniature ruler (you make the latter, lat-ter, yourself, out of wood). Attach a pin with a bit of adhesive to the back, and there you are or aren't you? Apple Polisher Nothing could be cuter on your lapel these days than a shiny apple made of red oil cloth. Just cut out two apples, identical shapes and sew them together with padding between. How about adding add-ing green felt leaves? |
