Home Made Gifts For Christmas

These cost quite a lot at speciality
stores, but can be made very reason
ably at home. Any pattern OF a
simple breakfast cap answers, the on
ly difference being that two tops are
cut instead of one. placing the cotton
batting filled with perfume between
them. The edges are finished with
lace frills and a large ribbon bow pois-
ed like a big butterfly. This cap
worn at night gives the hair a charm
ing fragrance and is most alluring.
Wells, gloves and handkerchiefs all
need pertaining, and the daintiest OF
cases can be made for these with very
little expense. These same cases FILL
ed with lemon, verbena leaves or laven-
der are always wanted for linen shell
yes and even a careless housekeeper
appreciates them. If the gift must be
made even simpler, perfumed sheets
OF batting may be laid in lowered crepe
paper. the coloring to be in harmony
with the perfume used. These are in
tended for boxes OF writing paper, to
put the touch of perfume on all the
stationery used by milady. If the
friend is in mourning. violet or
helitorope seem more appropriate.
To the more practical and busy
fingered, the work box is fortunate
gift. These are really wooden cheese
boxes and come in all sizes at the cost
of few cents. | think a nest OF six
costs SO cents. These are covered
with cretonne or silk, according to
taste, and lined with some soft con-
trasting color carried in the outer Gre
tonne. These boxes are most attrac-
tive when finished, and not at all ex-
pensive. Often a remnant from the
summers sale, or left from some other
use, is all sufficient. And these boxes
are not only delightful as work boxes,
but their uses are many. The small
lest Of the nest make excellent rubber
or stamp holders, and when especially
dainty in coloring, they are most use
full for odd pieces of jewelry. If lined
with chamois they make excellent pow
derboxes and are easily slipped in
trunk or suit case.
The larger sizes are convenient to
keep on library tables-they hold so
many useful odds and ends-playing
cards and whist TALES, scissors and
pieces Of work. the dozen small things
that are in daily use and yet seem to
have no place of their own when it
filled with candy or fruit (but be sure
to put in plenty Of waXed paper), they
are doubly gift. one sent to a pros
pective bride was covered with a rose
bud material lined with a delicate
pink, and held a perfumed boudoir
cap trimmed with pink ribbons. 1t
was one of the most appreciated of all
her bridal gifts, and only cost a few
dollars plus little time.
Curtain poles Of slender size, wrap
ped first in batting then covered in
cretonne or silk (even silkoline will
answer), and cut to about feet in
length, make desirable gifts to house
keepers, for these poles are now al
most necessary to Keep tablecloths
in good shape Only one fold is need
ed then, for they can be rolled around
the pole. No creases nor fold to mar
the beauty Of the cloth when used.
These same poles cut shorter are USE
