This is the year that a great
many women will make their
Christmas gifts, not as you
may suspect because it's less
expensive, but because hand
made things have so much
greater value. Now that ma
chimes are so proficient, it's
hard to buy raw materials
and make things for less money
than you can buy them, but
because of this very fact, there
is an added value in anything
made by hand. and especially
inaanything made by your own
hands. And there's still plenty
of time to make most of the
things you may have on your
list.
New Braided Scarf
Just as a suggestion, here
is a scarf that is so new it
has scarcely appeared in the
shops. It's Schiaparelli's twisted
silk scarf, and you make 1t OF
three pieces OF SILK crepe dA
in different .colors, such as
orange, purple and black. or
three shades of blue, or blue,
cerise and white. Just roll and
whip the edges, and sew the
pieces together in the back.
They are braided together when
you put them on. as the sketch
shows. Then give girl a
braided silk girdle in two or
three colors, so she can wear
it on several dresses, and vary
her wardrobe more.
The vogue for handwriting
