Aim at Simplicity.
People are beginning to realise that the secret of a beautifully arranged room lies in the word simplicity. So the day of the gewgaw-laden mantelshelf, tho picture-crow ded wall, the nick-nack-laden whatnot is passing. If you have anything really good in your house, give it a chance. Hun t spoil a good picture by surrounding it with cheap prints. Hotter a hare wall than an over-crowded one. Don't spoil a good piece of glass or china by' hiding it amongst a heap of cheap ornaments. Don’t spoil a good piece < f furniture by tilling the room with “elegant ’ fancy chairs.
