Old Pieces Beautify New Settings in Homemaking
Rural Home editor of Capper's Farmer urges housewives to hunt in attics and storerooms for overlooked items to brighten interiors.

Ivory painted laths become shelves for a window display. Colorful glass and china beneath sunlight create appealing sight.
