ADDS BEAUTY TO A COTTAGE
ly Used In Decorating Interior of
the Summer Residence.

A stunning cretonne for a summer
cottage is in black, gray and white
foliage effects, the whole effect be.
ing rather dark, with little hints, in
between the trees, of white sky and
a bit of landscape. The cretonne
could be used in bedroom, with pale
gray walls, gray enameled furniture,
black and gray rug, and with a deep
rose color developed in accessories
such as lamp-shades, pillows, hangings
and seats. 1t would also look well in
a dining room or in q living room Of
q seaShore house.
There is still another cretonne that
Is beautiful, although it is of a dis
tinctly opposite character, but which
could be used for the same rooms as
those just indicated. 1t is an all-over
rose design printed in yellow, creams
and browns, on Sand-colored back
ground. The roses are small, being
only about an inch and a half in
diameter. The whole effect of this
cretonne was pale and shadowy, and
there would be a wonderful chance for
beautiful room developed with this
material.
