shelves, drawers and closets
which are easily accessible. These
should be devoted to items in
frequent use. In-season clothing,
| for example, would be kept in
active Storage areas and would be
shifted when the season changes,
to the third type. or seasonal
storage areas.
Seasonal storage areas should
be accessible, but not necessarily
for daily use. They can consist
of garment bags. unused suit
cases. chests or boxes kept under
beds, at the back of closets or in
storage lockers. Under-the-bed
storage in metal boxes or in
metal drawers which can be
attached to the bed frames is a
good place to keep out-of-season

Setting UP this storage system

little time and thought. but it
will pay off providing less

shelves in areas used every day.
DRESSING UP DRAPERIES-
Spring-which is just around

dress up your draperies. bed

STORAGE ANALYSIS MY
main problems are storage ones.
Can you suggest something's"
| Decision on exactly where to
store items such as a vacuum
cleaner, step stool. or company
dishes must depend on how the
apartment is arranged and on
how often these items are used.
But there are some general prir-
ciples which might help to solve
this general problem Of storage.
The first step is to be realistic
about what you keep and why.
For many years. during the war
and immediately after. many
people were following the slogan,
wear it out, use it up. make it
do"
This idea that a garment may
be remodeled. or household
tool repaired and made useful
once again has led more than one
Of us to return worn out objects
to already overcrowded closets
cupboards and drawers. Apart
ment living really means efficient
living. That. in turn, means that
outworn or unused items should
be discarded, if at all possible.
The second step issto develop
a system for storing useful items.
Classify all thingseso that they
can be placed in one of three
types of storage area - dead
storage. active storage or sea-
sonal storage.
There are a number of us who
keep some things for personal or
sentimental reasons which would
probably be classified by others
as unnecessary. These objects
may range from baby's first
shoes to hand-operated ice cream
freezers.
| Such items have one char
acteristic in common-they are
seldom used and seldom even
looked at. Unless things in this
category can be turned into
decorative items such as book
ends or table lamps. they should
be placed in suitable containers
in dead storage areas; that is, on
a shelf, or in drawer or locker
areas least accessible for daily
use.
! Active storage areas includes

designs these days. ranging from
informal rick-rack or cotton
moss fringe to knotted fringe
with gold threads.
II fringe is not the answer to
your needs, you could make a
border Of contrasting material
one to three inches wide. and
applique it onto your Grapes or
curtains. This is especially eff
fectiye when edges Of curtains
