YELLOW TO LIGHTEN

ROOMS

Tis only lately that people have begun to realise the great value of yellow In their furnishing rehemes, and yet in the case of dark, badly-t rooms, or rooms that face north and so get very little sun, no other colour gives such satisfactory results.

Even now, many women do not make enough use of yellow in their homes. It is such joyous colour, the colour of sun-light, of gay sum- mer flowers, of radiant broom and gorse, and of gleaming gold itself.

The woodwork could be painted a very pale yellow, so pale ins to be almost ivory, resembling as nearly as possible the exquisite golden tint which sunshine throws over white paint.

Then, if yellow is introduced as the predominating colour in the carpets and curtains, and the lamp shades are of daffodil yellow, the room, would be brightened out of ali knowledge.

A bedroom furnished in this way would be most effective, especially with the addition of deffodil yellow 83k cushions, and an elderdown of brown and gold. A yellow bath- room with yellow walls, yellow porcelain, and yellow and white check curtains is far more cheerful than with the conventional white, pink or green.

The great charm of yellow is that It is the one colour that can never become monotonous. The shades are so varied, ranging, as they do, from a deep cream and pale parch- ment yellow through the varying Ents of lemon yellow and then orange yellow to rich old gold that is nearly fan. A room could be fur-, nished entirely in yellow colourings that tone delightfully together, and yet with no two of them alike.

Yellow can also be introduced suc- cessfully into practically any other calour scheme, and will always add. a welcome note of warmth and brightness. It will it in anywhere and everywhere, just us a ray of sunshine never looks out of place.
