ODD SCRAP BASKET.
How to Make a Neat and Handy Re-
ceptacIe for Sewing-ROOm
Odds and Ends.

A pretty style of scrap basket, in
vogue 20 years ago, has been revived,
says the Brooklyn Eagle. The basket
is made of heavy cardboard, or light
bookbinder's board. 1t is narrow at
the base, the four pieces composing
it widening from a line of about six
inches to a width of about II inches
at the top. The basket is about 10
or IL inches high. The four pieces
are pierced at the side edges, at the
top, middle and bottom and joined
together with ribbons. 4 bottom is
then put in the basket and glued fast.
and the sides shellacked. In oil
colors, after a background has been
put on, either white or some single
tint, or else a shaded coloring of
gray or olive decoration of flowers
are applied. One such basket seen
recently, showing red and white
fuchsias against white background,
was effective, especially as it was
tied with red ribbons. Another
basket had shaded olive background
and delicate green branches and
foliage outlined against this, on
which the "yellow hammer" was
painted on different panels, with
wings outspread. A variation of this
design shows the same bird sitting
sedately beside his feathered mate.
A snow background, with delicate
tracery of branches, for third basket.
depicted robin Iedbreasts on differ
ent panels. Purple clematis entwined
fourth basket, adorned with purple
bows, and sepia toned basket, show
ing quaint heads painted upon it, was
furnished with cadet blue bows.
