Plans For Making Yule Accessories

Christmas At Home" came lit
tie early for several Madison Coun-

who attended the leader training
for this project on November IL.
Many interesting make it your
SELF" decorations, gifts, crafts, and
foods on display, were explained
to the group who will be giving a
similar lesson back in their own
local groups during the coming
pre-ChriStmas season.
According to County Home Eco
nomics Agent, Shirley Lynn Nall,
the Christmas decorations and
gifts were on such a high standard
that any homemaker would be well
pleased to use the decorations in
her home as well as receive any of
the handmade gifts. The home
agent praised the committee for
its outstanding work in making up
these items. The training meeting
was sponsored by the Home Dem
onstration Council, Mrs. Eugene
Wilson, president, which appointed
a committee of Mrs. Edwin VAL
lery, chairman, Mrs. John Brown,
Mrs. Walter Renner, and Mrs.
John Stegall to take charge.
Through meetings such as
Christmas At Home" homemak-
ers can receive many new ideas and
directions for carrying out these
ideas. Even more important, how
ever, is the fact that much money
can be saved by doing these things
yourself. Also to be taken into con-
sideration, is the enjoyment home
makers receive from making their
own decorations and gifts as we'll

decorations were many as well as
beautiful Among these decorations
which would surely make for a
more delightful Christmas at Home
were mantle arrangements, table
centerpieces, TV. arrangements,
outside door decorations, and dec
orations for the home in general.
Various items such as greenery,
candles, Christmas balls, ribbon,
oil cloth, tinsil, hangers, styrofoam
and spray snow were used in the
decorations. By tying a few of
these things together with a little
twine and putting dab of glue
here and there, the group witnessed
amazing results.
