Easiest When
The Carpet Is
Bought First
EDENTON - “What should I
choose first — carpet, draperies,
furniture or paint or wallpaper?”
That question confuses many
homemakers as they make plans
to decorate a room.
According to Mrs. Mary G,
Cowper, home economics exten
sion agent, Chowan County, many
women prefer to select the car
pet first. It is usually the most
expensive item and often has the
most limited range of styles and
colors.
It is also easier to mix a paint
color that will match upholstery
and drapery fabrics than it is to
find a fabric that will match the
paint, Mrs. Cowper observes,!
It isnH always possible to se
lect furnishings in this order —
carpet, fabrics and wall color —
or to redecorate a room com
pletely, Mrs. Cowper concedes.
Often a homemaker has to choose
furnishings or fabrics that match
what she already owns. This hap
pened to Mrs. W. C. Bunch of
Edenton. Althou^ she had the
draperies, furniture and wall col
or she wanted, it took her two
years to find the “right” carpet.
