Were it not for forest fires, the timber growth would exceed the timber drain. A friend of mine just bought an old farm-house just outside of town, and I've been having a simply won derful time helping her to remodel and redecorate. We’ve just about finished, and I wish you could see personally the actual “miracles" we've wrought with paint and structural glass. We are especially pleased with the transformation of the old coun try kitchen. When my friend pur chased the house, the kitchen was badly in need of plaster, and totally lacking in the equipment that we’ve become accustomed to. (Small won der— the home was over 100 years old, and had been unoccupied for several years!) Today, that same kitchen is sparkling with color , . . completely modern, and practical. We used Carrara structural glass for all the walls and it's simply beautiful! Reflects every bit of light — and, because it cleans with a whisk of a cloth, my friend finds it especially convenient with her fam ily of boys! We are so pleased with the kitchen that right now we’re in the midst of having the same glass put on the bathroom walls. The room was formerly an old closet and is small, so the glass is really a help in seeming to enlarge the room. It's made just like fine plate glass, you know, and is polished so that it really reflects, giving any room a feeling of spaciousness. The colors are simply gorgeous — we chose a tranquil green for the kitchen, and a beautiful blue for the bathroom. Peter, my friend's husband, likes the effect so well that he's putting a soft beige glass over the mantel — it's really stunning. He says it’s very easy to apply, too — goes right over the original surface. My husband and I ars going out to the farm tonight. I want him to see Peter’s work—for I've just loads of plans for our house!
