The following article by Mrs. Jane
S. McKimmon, State Home Demon

Making Old Bedroom Furniture At- i
t retire.
"Some of our club girls have been
much interested in making their bed
rooms attractive and have asked that
Vtirections for doing over old furni
ture be Riven.
In these directions I am assuming
that the furniture to be treated is ei
ther an unsightly varnished bedroom
set or is made up of odds and ends
of painted pieces. Mahogany and
walnut furniture, will be spoken of in
another lesson. For the varnished
pieces get some good varnish remov
er. apply 'as directed and scrape off
with a piece of glass, and afterward
with sandpaper. The glass and sand
paper alone will do the work, but it
is tedious business.
? Decide on the celor you would pre
fer for your room. Here are a few
ir.uchused colors that have proven
very satisfactory: Ivory, gpay and"
peacock blue.' Nothing is prettier
than a soft pale gray or an ivory fin
cretonnes are used for draperies and
cushion covers. Purchase flat paint
last two. Have at least two good
paint brushes (one and one-half inch)
and be sure to provide a pint or more
of turpentine. After removing the
vamisl; m ? paiiu fmin fuiiiliuif wipe
free from and apply twenty-four
' hours apa^t enough thin coats of
? piiiiT, m riive thn desired major. ?aiiim.
ih Lhp last coat, with jCIO sand paper
and finish with two coats of enamel
of the name color. ? A smnll qnnnti
ty of color squeezed from a tube of
artist paint will tint white enamel
any color desired. A bit of yellow
tube paint win make your white en
amel ivory, or a bit of black will tint
it" gray .
In the enamel furniture there is a
sreat opportunity for artistic decora^
tjon. The use of a fine line of har
monizing or contrasting color to out
line panels is very good indeed. For
instance, blue or buff lines could be
used on the gray. buff, old blue or
pink on the ivory finish.
Inserts cut from flowered cretonne
are very effective when glued on pain
ted furniture. A half wreath under
the key-holes on the dresser drawers
and the head and foot-board of the
toed is good, or conventional designs
on the drop-leaf of a table or on the
backs of chairs are attractive. To
apply these cretonne or wall-paper in
r Berts, cut them out carefully, lay face
up on a large sheet of wrapping pa
per and give the surface a coat of
white shellac. (Several coats must
be used on cretonne to make it stick).
'Apply thla llgfcTJy *ntt ^H<kU that
colors may not run. When dry turn
over and coat ti e back In the same
| manner. After backs are dry coat
with glue or quick-drying furniture
| varnish and let stand until JuM sticky
! enough to adhere well to the furniture
I place where desired and smooth with
i pad or rag. If any glue or varnish
I Some things to do to make your
.work successful:
| 1. Scrape furniture absolutely
clean .
2. "" Do your paintiug in a place free
dust.
| 3. PVipe furniture carefully before
applying first coat of paint.
4. Apply only one coat in twenty
| fnnr hnnra unii hav?? that
th and not too thick.
5. Keep your brush clean. Tur
L peoijne is a good cleanser .
F Select good paint."
} Jane S. McKimmon.'
Mrs. T. H. Dickens, of the White
Level Club sends the article given be
low: ^
My Bedroom.
"My bedroom has a south and east
exposure and a low-pitched ceiling.
When I get it finished I want it to be
attractive and homey. The floor and
wood work are to be dark oak, the
side walls cream with the ceiling a
is dark oak with only the big roll and
g^ell frunts for decoration . There
are two comfortable lock era and two
straight chairs of the same finish as
other furniture. The rugs, when se
lected, will be an autumn shade of
brown with a deep dark brown bor
der. The shades for my windows
are cream. The curtains, bedspread,
and bolster roll are to be made of un
bleached domestic with appliqued
morning glories of pink and blue, wh
ile the covers for dresser r-nd wash
stand will be of the same material
with figures to match the curtains.
As for pictures, I would like about
two good subjects done in sepia with
neat frames of oak moulding."
