On November 18, 2010, I gave a little presentation to my class at school about how the cereal boxes become beads. When I first started speaking, I was kinda nervous, but once I got going, I was less nervous. I talked about how the Haitian woman (and some men) take the cereal boxes, cut them into little strips, wrap them into little beads, Mod Podge 'em, string 'em onto string, and sell 'em
At the moment,the school collection thing-a-mabober is at a standstill*, that is 'cause my teacher is asking the principal if we can collect from the
WHOLE 6th grade. The reaction to the necklace I brought into class brought many "ooohhhh"s, "aaaahhh"s, and(from the boys) " Dude, that's tight man!!!"
*as of the 22nd of November, 2010
I didn't know you could make cereal boxes into pretty necklaces! I will have my daddy send you all his cereal boxes. He likes cereal a lot so you'll have lots. Love, Cousin Sophie
ReplyDeleteThanks Calvin! I couldn't imagine how cereal boxes and beads had anything to do with each other but you explained it very well. We will save our boxes up here in WA state and send them your way.
ReplyDeleteGood luck!
