that the trend today is to de-
corate the way the individual
likes.
The most popular furniture
styles today, she said, are
French and Italian Provincial
and Colonial Country Ameri-
can and that the use of a iot
of strong color in both paint
and fabric is important. She
said that texture is favored
today in upholstery material,
drapery fabrics and carpets.

for good decorating, that is,
the use of quality and a com-
mon sense way of living.
