walled by the house. The ceiling
comple
ment to the terra cotta of the
floor. The furniture—of metal
and reed—streamlined, modern
in design, is white-enr meled ex
cept tor the tops of the tables
which are a deep shade of hunt
er’s green. This same green is re
peated in the upholstery on the
seats of the sofa and one large
chair. Blit the upholstery for the
back cushion is of sail cloth in
vari-colored stripe.;—green, ecru,
yellow, orange and brown. Inci
dentally, this said cloth is not
only waterproof but it is also sun
and mildew proof. Waterproofed
fa.bric. in plain terra cotta, cov
ers the small chairs and plain
yellow sail cloth i.s used for the
second large chair. The floor is
.-pread with a rug of woven rush
squares in natural finish.
Tubs which contain evergreens
and hanging crocks of ivy furnish
splashes of living color against
the white wall. An occasional
bright pottery jar further ca-rries
out the variegated color scheme.
If you are fortunate enough to
have a garden or long slope of
lawn for your porch to overlook,
you need not worry about seclu.:-
ion. But if your porch fronts di
rectly on the street, a little more
privacy is achieved by applying
a coat of a light tint of fine en
amel to the wire screening. For
the people inside looking out, the
view will not he obscured, but
those outside looking in will find
their view somewhat retarded,
particularly when the sun is shin
ing.
Before painting, the furniture
should be scrubbed absolutely
clean with soap and water to
which a little ammonia has been
added. Rinse well to 'remove any
trace of soap. Be sure that no
dampness remains in the wood
at the time of reflnishing. If the
old coating Is badly worn or
cKip-ped, apply paint remover ac
cording to the instructions on the
can. Any slight roughness may be
smoothed down with sandpaper
If all the old finish has been re
moved. three coats of paint will
be needed—two of flat .paint and
one of exterior enamel. The first
coat should be well thinned with
turpentine. As a usual thing, two
coats will suffice. If the old fin
ish merely needs freshening, one
coat will probably b*e all that’s
necessary.
To paint wicker or reed fur
niture the enamel must be brush
ed out thoroughly and not allow
ed to collect thickly in the crevlc-
esi. Spraying paint on is simpler
than brushing it on in some cir
cumstances. For wicker pieces
this method is particularly satis
factory. The sprayer attachment
of your vacuum cleaner may be
used for this operation. The paint
should he thinned with turpen
tine, about one part turpentine
to thfee parts of paint. Go over
each piece evenly two or three
times. If you do this work out of
door.5, pick a location where no
wind or dust will reach you. Of
course, you should always beware
of dust settling upon your pieces
when painting o r varnishing
them. And remember when paint
ing or varnishing them. And re
member when painting furniture
to do it the easiest way. Turn the
chairs and tables upside down
and paint the legs first, then do
the backs and seats. Set the chairs
upon a bench or table so as to
save the wear and tear on your
backbone from bending over.
Wicke pieces on which you i
wish to retain the natural fin-j
ish. should te covered with one
or two coats of Lin-X, wh.ch is
weather resistant to a high de
gree end particularly desirable
for all outdoor pieces of natural
finish whether wicker or plain
wood.
Before repainting metal furni
ture be sure to take off all rust'
,=pots, as rust will continue its
destructive work if not entirely
removed. You can use either
sandpaper or steel wool for this
purpose. Touch up these spots
preferably with red lead or the
paint you are planning to use for
the finishing coat. Allow to dry
thoroughly before applying yo-ur
final coating. Exterior enamel is
best for this purpose. With your
furniture neat and shining under
its new surface coating, you 11
want the background of your
porch to be in keeping. So repaint
the floor with a good quality
porch and deck enamel, waxed
for additional durability. And al
so remember to give the ceiling a
new finish so that it need not be
self-conscious.
