An Artistic Floral Wedding Curtain.

For pretty decoration at summer
wedding when the ceremony is perform
ed at home Bell Bayless offers the fol-
lowing suggestion in The Ladies' Home
Journal:
Take tennis net, fish net or ham
mock that may be cut the desired size
and fasten it to the rings Of curtain
pole, looping it twice and then allowing
it to fall to the ground Then weave
white flowers in and out the meshes,
taking ferns or delicately cut foliage for
a fringed border, being careful not to
give too solid an appearance, and cover
looping cords with rope of flowers.
White narcissus, lilacs and honeysuckle
with white clover ropes may be used,
but any flowers in season may be util-
ized-daisies, spireas, apple or plum
blossoms, roses, chrysanthernums, any
thing white, but if preferred, pink, blue
or yellow for a border or entire drapery
would be very dainty. Asparagus vine
works in beautifully for green back
