USES OF PLASTER
Attractive Uses For Decoration. Overseas interior decorators are making use of plaster as a means of moulding fascinating adornments for the home. As far back as the eighteenth century a group of artists in Paris created lamps, vases and draperies from piaster, and to-day they are in vogue again. From plaster can be made attractive mounts for wall mirrors, bases for table lamps and candle sticks.
Used in a room where the walla are off-white and the carpets the popular earth brown they Ipok very charming. Heavy sacking can be treated- with plaster and used for drapes or valances with soft, filmy window curtains. Plaster vases for table decoration have already arrived in Australia, and a Sydnej-y hostess derived delightful decoration for her dinner table by placing gardenias in white plaster shells. Other white blooms could also be arranged with excellent effect. . • .? ’?
