RIBBON TABLE RUNNERS
When you go bargain-hunting, keep ; a sharp look-out for remnants of wide, heavy, boldly-patterned ribbon?, from six to ten inches wide. You can make the most effective table-runners from these, and they'arc so quick to. do. There arc no long sides to hem-—just think!
Six-inch widths are just right, for small occasional tables; wider ones for dining-tables and sideboards. Striped petersham and brocaded and metallic ribbons are the most suitable: sometimes you can pick these up for very little. Look in the trimmings deportment at the same time, for odd half-yards of fringe: they coat only a few pence a remnant. . " . • When you get your treasures home, you can "runner'"' the whole house in an evening. Fifteen minutes servos' to border each cut end of ribbon with fringe «r to double the ends into points .-weighted with tassels.
