Developing practical homemaking
skills has been the hig goal for the
Milano Homemaking classes during
the first month of school. The Home-
making Cottage has provided a good
setting for the teaching of these
skills and techniques of color combin-
ations of room decoration, planning
and making glass curtains and drap-
eries, dying materials, working with
used materials, painting, varnishing,
etc.
Included in the work which has
been completed are; an unfinished
desk chair, the arms of the studio
couch, one occasional chair, and old
curtains from the laboratory which
was made into curtains for the dres-
sing table and stool.
The laboratory is on the north and
is used for nearly all of the class
work. The white organdy curtains
finished two years ago and the white
ducking machine covers made many
years ago gave the room a cold, icy
uninviting appearance. Sunshine and
cheerfulness were brought into the
room by dying the curtains maize
yellow and the machine covers golden
brown. These colors blend well with
the natural finished work table tops
in the room which were re-finished
by the girls this month.
The girls in Homemaking II have
planned the budget that the depart-
I ment will operate by this year. They
are obtaining more budgeting exper-
vwre played j jence by planning home food budgets
before beginning their food studies
proper.
As a result of study and experience
in their homemaking class work, the
students have been able to make im-
provements at home. Several girls
have completed their home work and
others have plans made for further
improvements.
