LITTLE TRICKS WITH
WALLPAPER
Leftover wallpaper can do
tricks, especially the new super
washable plastic coated kind. It
can make new dust jackets to
protect the bindings of books and
make the books match the walls
Don't cover all the books on the
shelves with a patterned paper
Cover some of them in plain paper
for variety and to emphasize room
scheme colors. Plain wallpaper in
medium and dark shades can cover
the white shade that now is a
glare spot and make it a more
restful opaque shade. To cut the
wallpaper to fit the shade, spread
the paper upside down on a table.
Place the shade on its side on the
paper and draw top and bottom
edges as you roll the shade from
the seam around to the seam
again. The firmness of some of the
plastic coated papers makes it pos
sible to turn margins over the
shade frame, but with other pa
pers a narrow shade binding or a
tiny edging to cover the edges of
the paper may be necessary.

Italian Import Has Now Style Sewing
Cabinet a Small Chest with Drawers
By Sue Gardner
A handsome new sewing ma
chine just coming on the market
looks like a small chest with three
drawers and
shiny metal
pulls.
The drawers
are Just part
of the design,
however, and
when you pull
away the front
of the cabinet
you see they
are the back of
a seat for use
when sewing.
The top of the "chest" is an extra
leaf which opens for working
space when you use the machine.
In the seat part there Is a roomy
side drawer with sections for
thread and other sewing material
and storage space for material.
The cabinet comes In limed oak,
walnut and mahogany finishes.
The machine is an Italian Im
port which allows for a wide va-
I it
r2
riety of embroidery and trimming
without the use of special attach
ments. You can sew buttons, make
buttonholes, hemstitch, and make
all of a costume, drapes and slip
covers on this machine by just
moving the levers Instead of
changing attachments.
A novel Christmas gift for a
little girl you want to interest in
sewing is a music box machine,
also an Italian import. The music
box plays as the child sews, work
ing the wheel of (he machine man
ually. In addition to the modern chest
cabinet there are a number of
traditional styles for use as occa
sional tables and writing desks.
Maple models go with early
American homes, and there are
English traditional styles for more
formal homes. The desk models
come in modern and traditional
styles with simple or elaborate
drawer pulls. There are also two
styles of portable machines with
carrying cases.
