Cotton Curtains Are Gay
COTTON comes in via the window to give a summery look to homes this year.
New cotton stripes, plaids, checks and fancily woven monotones make the gayest of new summer curtains. And there is no end to the smartness you can achieve by using these new modern cottons for snappy curtains that are different.
This window has most attractive hangings, made of a new spongy white cotton, with raised stripes of double fine lines of red, blue and white alternating. Little cot- ton tassels and big cord loops add their chic to the window dress.
