Thought Should Be Given
Design in Dining Area
When you make your
choice of dinnerware remem
ber that like your silver it
is expected to last for many
years.
Therefore, give time and
thought to the design and col
oring you select so that it will
harmonize with the color
scheme in your dining room
and will be right for formal
as well as informal occasions.
This is the advice of Mar
cia Moore, stylist for the Mel
amine Council, who special
izes in model table settings. .
; Designs in1 pastel colors are
, a safe selection, Miss Moore
continues, as these soft hues

will harmonize with almost
any decor unless it is very
modern. Many of the pret
tiest patterns made by the 32
molders who are members 61
the Melamine Council are in
flower designs and such pat
terns lend themselves to at
tractive table settings. Also,
one is less likely to tire of
these designs.
One out of every four
American homemakers are us
ing melamine today, accord
ing to Miss Moore, its break
resistant qualities proving es
pecially ' popular in homes
where there are small chil
dren. As this dinnerware may be
had in both formal and in
formal patterns and in both
brilliant and soft colors, it is
not difficult to find a design
suitable to almost any dining
room decor,, the stylist says.
Furniture Should
. .
Not Be Scrubbed
The well-scrubbed look may
be right for the small fry in
your family, but don't scrub
your furniture.
Many conscientious home
makers used - to wash their
furniture with their spring
and fall housecleaning. Now
adays it's dry cleaning for
well-kept furniture, with wax
substituting for water.
Water can actually damage
wood furniture according to
Luclle Bush, director of John
son's Consumer Service.
Water can cause the grain
to swell and crack, and may
cause veneer failure by soft
ening the glue. Additional
damage can be caused by the
soap residue that is often dif
ficult to remove and leaves
the surface dull.
Daily dusting of furniture
is desirable, and new push
button waxes will remove
dust and 'develop - a shine all
in one. These may be used
on all types of furniture, and
materials used in furniture in
cluding wood, leather, Formi
ca, porcelain, brass, vinyl, and
marble; for plastic counter
tops and wall tile, too.
DANISH MODERN The fresh, exciting
concept of Danish modern moves its well
established place in the living room to give
traditional elegance and comfort to the bed
room. Here the rich, light walnut finish on
cherry veneers sparks the modern lines of
' furniture and accessories to make up a most
elegant room decor. From Sears, Roebuck
and Co.
New Styling Being Introduced
Into Carpets in 1 961 Season
Hnmpmfikpm shonnin? for

that they will be able to Duy
" lot nf car-net." for their
money! This happy report can
be made from a. preview of
the new carpet styling Deing
introduced for the new season.
Brilliant colorings, heavy
textures and many elegant de
signs constructed into "heal
thv hunks" nf OArnet Dile will
be available at "pocketbook-
flttmg" prices.
The broadened caroet color
spectrum developed during
the past two years gets an
other boost in" the 1961 offer
In hv the use of hew. deep
er pigments, and the clever
use of .' textures to acnieve
unique- tones and shadings. '
Cheesecloth, diapers, flan
nel or wool cloths are recom
mended for dusting. Shun
coarse or open-mesh material,
synthetic fabrics or new cloths
that may be sized or linty,
Mrs. Bush advises. Never use
an oiled or treated cloth on
waxed furniture'; as this will
make it smeary. ;
y Never let a damp cloth rest
on a wood surface as it may
damage the finish.
"Texture for color's sake"
describes the design tech
niques creating these subtle
coloring effects. Handcrafted
textures, swirling light looped
designs, bulky curl - loops,
"wood-carving" ripple tones,
wavy straited multi-level piles
and long shaggy yarns-looped
and uncut-are used to develop
the new hues.
. For example, a yellow-green
dye used in tight, velvety pile
glows a vibrant gold-green.
The same dye applied to heav
ier, shaggy texture takes on
a deeper olive shade.
The "texture artists" have
even been at work on the
familiar plush pile stylings.
Several carpet mills have in
troduced small loops into an
overall plush pile surface.
This has resulted in a two
tone effect caused by the va
rying play of the light on the
"rough-smooth" texture. The
carpet stylists, however, have
not been content to create new
colors solely through texture.
Dramatic colors now brighten
the palette - with true yellow,
true red, true green and even
a true gold being shown.
Boldly Dtapened
Formerly muted tones have
boldly deepened. The purples.
for example, have been given
a strong bluish cast as a de
parture from the lavender or
orchid tones which have be
come very popular carpet col
ors. Another new color is
henna, a vibrant red rust.
With the growing taste for
Early American and 18th Cen
tury furnishings, several mills
have brought back some deli
cate floral-patterned carpets
and rugs. Many of these de
signs reproduce the feeling of
the elegant Georgian and Re
gency periods. Some use wide
ly scattered bouquets on soft
pastel backgrounds. Several of
these patterns feature as many
as 88 different colored yarns,
but they are cleverly styled
to provide restrained, glowing
snaamgs. -.
Man-Mad Fibers
The use of man-made fibers
continues to offer style excit
ment in the 1961 carpets. Con
tinuous filament nylons yarns
are now constructed into new
textures that make the pile
appear softer and less lus
trous.
The revived Interest in rugs
-both room-size and area rugs
-is also apparent in the 1961
