Answers to Questions
QuestiOn.-We have a dining
room which we plan to redeco-
rate and use as a den. 1t is quite
"a large room with three win
dows forming a bay. The studio
couch cover is dark green. What
colors would you suggest for the
wallpaper. rug and draperies?
Answer-Since the room is
large you could use a wallpaper
with a dark background. an
Oriental pattern in gold, red
and chartreuse on a black back
ground would be interesting.
Get a red rug, chartreuse dra-
perieS and Far Eastern lamps
and accessories.
QuestiOn-We have just in
stalled birch cabinets along one
long wall of our kitchen and
plan to use wallpaper with a
small Stylized floral pattern in
white, yellow, black and green
on a red background on the
other walls and dropped ceiling.
The table and chairs are chrome
and yellow. What colors would
you advise for the floor covering
and curtains?
Answer-Black would be al
good color for the floor covering
i'm your kitchen. Use green
curtains.
QuestiOn-We are decorating
and furnishing a living room.
] would like to paint the walls
gray, the ceiling white and get
carpeting in a darker shade of
gray than the walls. Am / right,
or should the carpet be lighter
than the walls? We plan to buy
a green sofa, but have no ideas

perieS and lamps and wood
finish for the tables and cabinet

Answer-As a general rule, the
floorcovering in a room should
be the darkest color, the walls
lighter and the ceiling lightest,
so you are right about the dis
tribution of background color
you have chosen for your living
room. Pink would be a good color
for one chair and burgundy for
the other. Get the draperieS in
rose, black-and-white lamps and
mahogany tables and cabinet
pieces.

rooms and an expansive budget.
But the small house is a chal-
lenge.
How to make the best use
Of limited space? How to blend
utility and beauty? How to
choose furniture that will grow
with the family? The answers,
for young moderns. lies in an
overall decorating plan that re-
fleets their tastes and interests
A small bedroom. for instance,
takes on Importance when it is
co-ordinated in color, furnishings
and accessories. Pastel tones
make a room look airy and spa
cious. Using one basic color in
varying shades gives a feeling
Of brightness and serenity.
This does not have to be con-
fined to walls, carpeting and &C
ceSsories. Bedroom furniture also
is available in color and can be
the base around which to build
the scheme of the room.
The French print in gay but
delicate shades on the wall above
the dresser, a pair of antique
vases with hanging crystal
prisms, a blue ice bedspread
and cafe curtains, with flower
and-butterf1y applique, compile
Iment the light-toned furniture,
in a turquoise gray finish on
mahogany and give the extra
dimension of beauty.
Storage Provided
This furniture provides the
answer to other decorating prob
lens, too. Storage space is amply
provided in a triple dresser with
nine drawers. The bottom draw
IerS are extra deep for storing
bulk objects. such as blankets
and extra pillows. The center
section drawers are scaled to
hold small objects.
A bookcase headboard, a boon
to modern bedrooms, is just the
right height to go under high
Iranch-type windows and leaves
room for additional pieces like
Ia matching chest or double
dresser along other walls.
Sliding panels conceal space
for bedroom items, and an open
shelf will take pretty accessories.
A new idea is to group OPEN
bookshelf nightstandS with the
storage headboard. This gives
space for the all-important alarm
clock and nighttime reading ma
terial within easy reach.
Furniture such as this, wisely
chosen for the first home, in
Icreases in value in an expanding
household. What was originally
selected for the master bedroom

be to paint the hamper and
waste basket in your bathroom
black. If you have any Of the
wallpaper left over, cut out some
of the fish designs and paste
them on the painted hamper and
basket. You also can take the
colorS for the other accessories
from the wallpaper-aqua for
the shower curtain, pink for the
window curtains and white for
the rug.
