Hints From Spring Hostesses

along the line. And the bouquets

were held at arms length there was
formed the most wonderful floral
deeked ribbon way for the bride 10

Wild Flowers for Decorations
Now this was the wedding Of rich
girl and the cost was not counted,
but there is a suggestion here that
seems we'll worth the consideration
OF the bride-clect Of this spring or
summer, whose means are very mod
crate. Suppose, for instance, she Is
planning for a simple out-of-door
wedding, with wild Hover deeora-
tons, what could be prettier than a
daisy chain border to the path over
which she is to passl Another
feature OF this same wedding was the
substitution OF joyous caroling by a
boy choir, and this is quite possible
for many a bride whose spoon is just
silver and not pure gold. Yet an
other idea was the boxes for the
wedding cake, made by an impecuni-
GUS but deft-fingered relative for the
occasion, shaped like slices OF cake,
or like small fancy cakes, and their
satin covers decorated TO make the
resemblance more complete An
other hint for the decorative worker
on the lookout for novel ideas.
Mystic candles" to be placed
before each guests plate and lighted
by him or her just after sitting down,
are among the popular party novel
ties. A bit OF verse accompanies
each candle, which promises the
lighter a fate different according to
whether the flame burns red, or blue,
or green and so on. The originator
OF the idea must believe in optimistic
oracles only, however, for though the
promised results vary, they are all
OF the cheerful sort.
Not far away from these mystic
candles" are displayed fortune card
