Lucky for you these aren't ordinary textile dra
peries! They'd cost a fancy price if they were . . .
without looking one bit lovelier! And "Krene"
draperies are so much easier to keep new-looking
and fresh! Sponge them off at the window or toss
them in the washing machine ... no ironing! Won't
stretch or shrink . . . mildew, crack or peel . . . won't
hold dirt or odors! They're practically fade-proof,
flame-resistant . . . and absolutely waterproof.
"Krene" brand draperies are beautifully made,
too... automatic plastic plcater... heat-welded hems
...self-lined effect. Unlike perishable draperies,
they'll last not just for one season . . . but for years!
