HAVE YOU EVER TRIED THIS?
When rugs have seen their best days and are looking shabby take any odd scraps of bright wools and darn in the worn-out lines of the faded patterns in simple running-stitches; the rugs take on a new lease of life. If you have a broken chair, saw off the back, shorten the legs, pad the
seat with an old cushion, cover with tapestry and put some braid round to make it neat. Nail down with giltheaded nails, varnish th? legs to mathc your furniture and you have an attractive stool. .
