Ml&s Lille says thai you can make unusual and attractive cos tume jewelry with pearl necklaces Irom the dime store plus a lew packages of household dye. The pearls take Uie dye verv well. And an ordinary two or three strand necklace becomes a smart accessory when tinted in either contrasting or harmonising pastels. Here are her directions. Make an extra strong solution of Uie dye in a small bowl of water. Use a bowl for each color. Wet the neck lace and dunk Uie strand to be tinted In the dye bath. Lift and turn Uie beads until Uiev take on Uie color you want. Then rinse them with cold water and pat dry with a clean cloth. When you tint the second strand a dtlferent color, be careful to hold the first strand well out of the dve. And there you are. with a two or three tone necklace that will be a welcome find in any Christmas stocking. ' iSee this paper Is well buttered. Cool before removing from pans. 'Wrap well and store.
