Home owners planning odd jobs of
painting around the house may avoid
waste of time, labor and materials
by observing a few simple rules.
The first thing to be done after de
ciding to paint a room or some inte
rior or exterior woodwork is to ap
proximate the surface to be covered
and the color desired. Then, aftei
getting the paint in the quantity re-
coinmeniieti Dy the dealer, the surface
should be prepared.
If it is an interior job ami the
woodwork is r.ew, the surface should
oe cut smooth with sandpaper and
dusted clean. Then the priming coat
should be applied. If it is old wood
work and shows bad cracking, check
ing, or scaling, the surface should be
stripped with a good paint and var
nish remover and cleaned with ben
zine or turpentine. If the wood is
greasy or coated with wax, this
should be scrubbed off with benzine or
turpentine.
The next step is to putty up all nail
holes, cracks, and other defects. This
is done after the priming coat has
dried. Then a semi-finishing or sec
ond coat of paint is applied and al
lowed to dry thoroughly before the
third or finishing coat is applied. If
a gloss finish is wanted, the finishing
jcoat is enamel. If the color is
I to be other that white, both tii:ishin,r
coats are tinted.
Breakfast Nook For
Dining Koom Helpful
In houses that .have full-sized din
ing rooms it is 'frequently .desirable
to dedicate a corner for a breakfast
nook, especially when there are junior
members in the family.
The nook should have a built-in
cabinet lor the breakfast dishes and
(he ehiltlrens silverware and dishes
Here also can be kept the electric
cooking equipment such as grill, per
colator, and waffle iron.
A folding table hinged to the wall
may be built-in. By having a break
fast nook, housework can be lessen
ed and wear and tear on the dining
room furniture lessened.
