BOYS ROOM DECORATIONS.
From C. H. p. Alexandria,
In answer to Mrs. B. S. H.. Alex
andria: AS a suggestion, my sons
room was maple, bed, chest. desk,
bookcase and standing bed light
with rotary table half way down
the shaft. Your furniture can be
painted to harmonic with any
color-in this case. I would say
warm green. For floor coverings
I bought India druggett rugs, 5
by 7. The background is tan with
"a brown, green and orange de-
sign. For curtains I bought ordi-
nary unbleached cotton and made
them myself. using as a border
cotton bias tape, which can be
purchased at the 10-cent stores; a
row of brown, row of green, a
row Of orange. stitched closely
together. The full width Of un-
bleached cotton may be used for
each side of window or split for
each side with a 9-inch valance
(bordered the same) to meet each
side of the top.
For a bedspread I bought q
candlewick-so easy to wash and
keep clean with no ironing-in
beige and brown. On his desk a
big green blotter in the customary
cornered forms. also 10-cent store
The lamp shade on his table bed
light carries out the green, yel-
low. orange and beige. There is
plenty Of color to be attractive
and yet most serviceable for a
boy who may come In a little bit
dusty.
The color Of your walls must
be up to you. When you get this
far, you will know what you want
for q background.
Hope this may help. I know
your problem.
HOUSE PROBLEM?
fFrom Mrs. H. r., Washington }
We are thinking of buying a
house that has no basement and
would like to have some informa-
ton from the readers as to
whether or not the floor in this
type home Is warm enough. We
have two children and would like
to get opinions. good or bad, be-
fore we sign the contract. The
house has gas air-conditioned
heat. As we are limited as tc
time. we would appreciate any
suggestions.
