Spring Lift Can Be Obtained by Arranging Few Flowers

Our world OF eternal change
offers nothing more exciting and
wonderful than the unfolding of
Spring. This change instills in
every woman q desire to achieve
a fresh and new look. not only
for herself, but also for her
home.
Spring flowers and forced
branches are good gloom =
chaSers. Just consider what q
combination Of high arched
branches of forsythia and yellow
tulips will do to a room, espe-
cially when they are so arranged
that they impart a full, sunshiny
effect. But for achieving a maxi
mum Of artistic effect, we must
have a plan for the arrangement
or a mental outline that we want
to translate into an orderly de-
sign with flowers.
Once this step is taken, all the
fun in the world begins. It Is q
creative fun and one thought
may chase the other. For exam

for them Of various till-dormant
fruit blossoms which will grad
ually unfold.
Right now is the time to bring
in your sleeping ounce, for
sythia or magnolia, plum, pear
or cherry, always considering
that those blossoms which come
early in Spring will force quicker.
You also may trim of some
interesting leaves from your
house plants or take clippings
from the rhododendron, maho-
mia or glossy-leaved privet in
your garden. Even the larger
ivy leaves can give good dark
contrast to the lofty and fragile
forced blossoms.
Remind yourself repeatedly to
keep the early spring arrange
ment simple. clean-cut and sleek.
and leave the lush and gorgeous
arrangements for lilac time and
when the iris blooms.
Go ahead, spend a little and
use your ingenuity and get that
new spring lift for your home.

pie, we may discover the elemen-
tary beauty Of the plant mate
rial and its possibilities of adap-
tation to our arrangement. Then
we search for a container that
fits our plan and we may relish
the vital elegance of its form, its
color and texture.
Before we know it, deft fingers
have made a lovely picture which
is miraculouSly q humble part of
yourself, and at the same time a
reflection Of all the beauty and
goodness that is ours on this
earth.
Without a plan, the results of
the most ardent efforts are con-
fusing. With a plan comes
awareness of consecutive needs.
We accept as a natural conse-
quence that the container which
holds our picture Of Spring must
be adequate, in harmony, and OF
such appropriate quality that we
cannot think Of q better harmo-

colors that are fiattering to the
home is a matter of natural in

color in its brilliance or soft
ness, its contrasts or blendings
and its multitude of variation.
Other points to consider are
good balance and stability and q
proportionate fitness for the
favorite spot. A new angle or an
unexpected addition may change
a very pleasing arrangement
into a composition Of distinc-
ton. You will feel proud and
happy and so entranced with
what you have done that your
whole family becomes affected
