As if I hadn't anything else to do! (Comme si je n'avais pas autrechose à faire!)
These are paper beads(des perles en papier) that I made from pages of shiny (brillant) magazine paper. Aren't I clever? (Ne suis-je pas douée?)
Here is how you do it:
Cut out (découpez) a long triangle, roll it up on a wooden brochette, put some glue on the end, wait a minute...and there you are! Brilliant!
You can thread (enfiler) the beads onto very fine elastic, tie a knot (faire un noeud) and make a beautiful necklace (collier) or bracelet.
I made a lovely red one with the front page of the Avignon theatre programme:
You can use the same colours or mix them up, create what you like. Something other than (quelque chose d'autre que) threading on elastic, I haven't found an idea yet (je n'ai pas encore trouvé d'idée).
And it' ecological, recycling magazine paper instead (au lieu) of throwing it in the bin (le jeter à la poubelle). I will turn all those publicity leaflets into jewelry (des bijoux). I'm very proud of myself (je suis fière de moi)!
