The Right Rooms for Rest
Young housewives, when furnishing their firsl: homes, are apt to make one of two mistakes. Sometimes they will furnish a most complete and far too elaborate living-room, and by the time they get to their bedrooms, either their money, their taste or their time is exhausted.

'OUNG housewives, when furnishing their first homes, are apt to make one of two mistakes. Sometimes they will furnish a most complete and often far too elaborate living-room — and by the time
they get to their bedrooms, either their money, their taste
or their time is exhausted. The bedrooms, then, are bare
and uninviting, made up for the most part of odds and
ends. The other extreme is just
as bad. It consists of neglecting
the living quarters and designing
ornate bedrooms full of frills
and bows and ruffles — too much
furniture and not enough peace.
My favorite bedroom is Colonial, furnished in this spirit have the restfulness that should be the key-note of sleeping quarters
For these reasons — for half a dozen other reasons, the bedrooms are usually the least pleasing of any rooms in the average American home.
There is no reason why a bedroom cant be delightful. There is no reason why it cant have as much charm, as much feeling and as much atmosphere as any other room in the home. Yet these things need not interfere with the true interpretation of a bedroom. In fact, everything that you put into a bedroom should help to make it an ideal room for purposes for which it was intended.
