Fix Up Your Home
For the Holidays

out the best in a complexion.
And while not recommended
for reading, they can put
your guests In q warm holi-
day glow for a party. While
shopping for them. 1t might
be a good idea to invest in a
new fuse or two-in case
someone blows one while
lighting the Christmas tree.
6. Dye faded or grey table
linens bright red. Holiday
linens, stored from one year
to the next, sometimes lose
their luster. If this happens,
a trip to the automatic
washer with a package Of gay
dye can convert your white
table cloth to a red one you'll
want to use again next
Christmas. Don't forget the
napkins-you can dye them
to match the tablecloth-or
green, to match your center
piece Of holly.
7. Make sure your guests
know how to reach you. Give
your house number a coat of
luminous paint to help out
the after-dark visitor unfa-
miliar with your neighbour
hood. For an apartm e mt
house door, a welcome mat
with your name on 1t is a
helpful device for people in
strange corridors. Also check
driveway and steps for OBJ
stacles and ice.
And while you're at 1t,
make sure that the outside
of the premises proclaims q
CHEEKY Seasons Greetings"
by putting a wreath or some
other decoration on the door.
This is a project in which
the whole family will enjoy
participating.
8. Stock up on holiday fare
to minimize last-minute
shopping trips. You may wish
to load your freezer or re-
frigerator with such delica-
cies as pre-cooked frozen
meat balls, lasagna. frozen
layer cake. Designate an
emergency shelf in your cup
board for things that can be
served quickly on crackers:
Liver pate, olives, sardines,
anchovies and the like. Now
is the time to open recipe
books and plan.
And If you have planned
wisely, not only you but your
home will welcome guests in
the open-hearted spirit of the
holidays.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1962-12-09

Your home is on display
during the ultra sociable
holidays when the list of in
vited or lust dropped in"
guests may in clude people
you haven't seen all year.
To groom your premises for
this peak visiting season.
and to help it bear up under
the wear and tear of the fes-
tivities here are eight tips
from J. c. Penney Company.
/. Tackle the rug and give
1t q shampoo. Rugs need a
shampoo every few weeks to
stay new and fresh-looking
and a bright, cleaning ex-
panse underfoot during the
beginning Of the Christmas
season gets 1t off to a good
start.
With a foam shampoo in a
long handled applicator, you
can clean a slightly soiled
9 x IL rug In 80 minutes
but be sure and vacuum
thoroughly first.
For larger rugs, why not
use teamwork? Rug sham
pooling is a job your chill
dren may enjoy-and at this
point they may be eager to
earn a little Christmas money.
2. Check for needed repairs.
Is your wallpaper still clean
and unfaded, your kitchen
linoleum free Of cracks and
discolorations? Before the
Christmas rush begins, find
time to repair where neces-
sary. New vinyl floor tiles
and self sticking washable
wallpapers can be installed
with ease and speed by the
amateur.
To Danish those white
rings caused by wet glasses
on your wood furniture use
camphorated oil. A bath of
vinegar, lemon and iodine
will then restore the sparkle
of the entire table or chest.
8. Check for needed re-
placements. The difference
between a new looking house
and a tired looking one can
sometimes be measured in
pennies. Invest in brand-new
wash cloths for the whole
family - and Danish the
frayed ones from sight. Buy
a dish-towel with Merry
Christmas" printed across it.
Give the whole kitchen a fes-
tive air all year by treating
