Plan Dining Room
To Suit Your Needs

How you plan your dining room
will depend much upon your fam
ily's needs as well as its size, but
above everything else, the din
ing room should be a cheerful.
pleasant place in which you can
enjoy meals.
A dining room may be a room
all by itself or il may be a COM
btnation room, that is. combined
with a sewing room, kitchen. IL
brary. music room. den or living
room.
The type OF room II is may well
influence its decoration, but you'n
want 10 plan II so that it's light.
airy and comfortable. No matter
what the furniture type or the
natural light, the dining room can
be made brighter with colors.
Use COIors Boldly
As you see many homes today.
you'll notice that the most pleas
ing ones use color abmdantly
They're not garish, but they do
give you a lift as soon as you
walk into the room.
This should apply to dining
rooms irSt before anything else,
for here is one room which needs
color.
Maybe you should start with
select nice cheerful draperies with
generous quantities Of yellow,
green or red, or some of the warm
earthly tones. Be certain there's
plenty Of beige or white or gray in
the pattern TO balance the color.

al editions, with each edition
carrying 8 TO 10 center pages of
