This Shade Will Be Pretty In Spring
Redccoration.

There is Just certain wedgwood
blue that is exquisite with putty
cOlOred wall. 1t is not we'll to use
this combination in a north light,
which needs the warmer colonial yell
low, but it may be held in reserve for
the room having southern or west
ern exposure, with it's softer light.
The putty color is colder and less
yellow than the colonial shades-as if
a touch of gray had been dashed in
but there is still enough of the creamy
tone left to blend with the wcdgwood
blue of the han-ings.
These curtain goods may be found
in such inexpensive materials as
galatca. cotton poplin and japanese

Several pieces of old mahogany. a
