Miss Kate and Miss Lizzie Greatorex,
the artist sisters, once made a very
decorative screen for their studio by
applying the sorapings from their
palettes 20 fine burlaPs. No design was
attempted, bat she Kaleidoscope color
ing was verY effective.
Somebody. perhaps Is was Mrs Frank
Leslie once showed me a fine screen of
white brocaGs, the figures OF It's intri-
cate design finely outlined with couch
ings OF gold thread. This was . three
told screen mounted IN white and gold
and having tiny plate glass mirrors set
7 IN The frame a. intervals.
Women whose fad Is screens, and who
1 have a number, got variety by using
/ rich colored brocades without embroid-
ery. many stuffs being quite handsome
enough for such treatment and indeed
fsr more effective than the average
needlework or painting OF the average
amateur.
Bedroom and boudoir screens are the
/ delight Of the dainty girl Cretonne is
a pretty material. matching the cur
tains and draperies. Mating is also
/ pretty, especially when painted like
one owned By a red-curled debutante
with dancing girls twined with garlands
/ OF flowers. Another screen of mating
I in an artistic apartment is hung on a
/ gilded frame, painted sketchily with
/ cupids chasing butterflies and finished
with silk scarf drapery across the top.
/ Linen, sateen and satin sheetings are
other good screen materials. usually
treated in outline stitch in silk OF
( linen threads. Roses clambcring on a
trellis is pretty on fine gray linen.
Bright japanese or China silks make
/ pretty three-fold screens, run on rods
and mounted on simple cherry frames
Isabella Urquhart, the singer, is said
to possess unique screen OF -four
leaves, every leaf being 4 mirror.
