Delightful pictures of pressed leaves and other flat articles can be made by means of Splutter Work, which is nothing more or less than spluttering black ink or water colour on to a piece of paper on which is previously pinned the pressed leaf or other object that it

is desired to make into a picture. An old tooth brush is used for th< spluttering, this is sparsely filled witl the desired colour and held over th< paper. The blade of a knife is thei drawn upwards over the bristles which springing back, splutter the colour ii

tiny dots over the paper, save where it is covered with the dried leaf. Charming Christmas, cards can be made in this way by using pressed holly or mistletoe leaves. RIDDLE-ME-REE.
