Today's fashions for bedrooms are just as exciting as Paris fashions. Yet, so often homemakers con centrate all of their budget on the living rooms and use "left overs" to achieve a rather haphazard effect in the bed rooms. The master bedroom in many homes, is often the only "refuge" for adults in the house, and therefore should be furnished for com fort and eye-appeal, say deco rator - designers at Morgan-Jones.

Check the attic, you may find the nucleus of an entirely new look for the room. Scout second-hand shops for furnish ings which could mix-match with pieces you already own. Given a bit of restyling, these pieces might emerge as prized possessions rather than make - dos. Different woods and periods can complement each other and create a far more interesting blend than any matching group can pos sibly do. Color Glows This is a color-splashed era . . , and there's no style that takes better to color than country - type decor. Count strongly on bright and cheer ful colors to give bedrooms a face lifting. Color can be the Imaginative, touch that makes the difference between a hum drum room and one that glows. The most versatile way a canny homemaker can inject color, texture and perhaps even pattern in her room is by the choice of the proper bedspread.
