Oh my goodness, we used to this all the time in Junior High. I can’t believe it’s making a come-back!

I was thinking about these chains just recently. I had one about that length back in the day and the tooth fillings to prove it – hee!

Like Anita, these were popular when I was in the jr. and sr. high (late 60s). I never quite knew what to do with them once I got them going. But that photo is gorgeous… and I could so see a bowl or platter from these now.

I used to make these in Junior high. I was told you were to make them as long as how tall the boy who you had a crush on was tall!

This kept me busy for hours!
