PAGE 10, THE HERALD, Tuesday, May 2, 1978 Co-ordinating wallcoverings provide an interesting decorating idea in a girl’s bedroom. ‘It Isn't Raining Rain" and “Flower Drops” are from the new Young ‘N Fanciful collection of pre-pasted, scrubbable and dry- strippable wallcoverings by Sunworthy. Wallcoverings a ‘Natural’ in Children’s Rooms Wallcoverings today have a place in every reom in the home, whether one lives in a house or apartment. “But nowhere do they have quite as much impact as in children's rooms where they really are a ‘natural’ in many ways,” says Mary Prud’homme, Interior Design and Color Consultant, Sunworthy Wallcoverings. Take, for instance, as a start; the nursery. It has been found that babies almost from day one respond positively to the stimulation of color and pattern. So what could more readily provide a colorful visual environment than wallcoverings? The ones made for the nursery today, too, are a whole lot more colorful and well- styled than back when everything had to be pastel and wishy-washy. Thea, through the years, wallcoyerings can continue to ‘provide specific backgraunds that keep pace with the special growth development and interests of the child. Preschools can have fun learning their ABC’s, numbers, or even their first words straight off the walls of their bedrooms. Later, they can pick a walleovering that features their own favorite nureery rhyme or cartoon charac- ters. . The young sophisticates can have a totally individual look, if a wallcovering of their cholce ie used in a decorative way, Ohe idea might be to use one pattern on the walls and then take a A wallcovering with a papular space theme, such as “Starships’’ is bound to capture a youngster’ imagination. It comes with a vo-ordinating stripe “On et companion pattern up behind the bed and use it to cover a small valance at ceiling height for a canopy effect. Boys or girls right through to their late teens can have fun decorating ‘their bedrooms around a specific theme taken from a wallcovering. A space- oriented design could be carried through with the appropriate modela, toys, general bric-a-brac, even ‘space’ lighting. Here, the wallcovering is a way to stimulate the imagination. It’s more likely that the child will be. proud to show the room off and might try a little harder to keep it reasonably neat and tidy. There are also some very practical aspects of putting . E The Line’, and both are from Sunworthy’s new Young 'N Fanciful collection of prepasted, scribbable and child’s : -wallcoverings .in children's and-or teens’ rooms today. :For ‘one, the pre-pasted varieties are very easy to put on, even older children coultl helptodo this. Ifyou choose | the scribbable variety which is generally recommended for children's rooms, then you don't have to worry all the time about children crayoning or drawing on the walls, for it will all come oif, The dry-strippables are simple to take down with a minimum of fuss and bother when it’s time for a change or a different look. All these properties can be found in the new Young ‘N Fanciful collection by Sunworthy, which offers a wide selection of patterns for children of all ages and also some more fanciful designs for the young at heart, dry-stippable wallcoverings. A New Home for Laundry Appliances There's no need to rete- [ .gate those laundry ap- pliances to the garage, away: from house activity. How much more praclical to keep your washer and dryer in the house, where you can keep an eye on youngsters or the pol roast. Partition off a section of ‘the family room to make a new home for your ap- pliances ., . or find a corner for them in the kitchen. Wasted space under: the stairway can function more usefully as a new laundry cenler than a catch-all. Af- ter all, you use the washer and dryer more often than thase golf clubs, probably!’ The back, porch is also a handy place to store laundry appliances and may be able to function as a combination laundry and playroom. Conserving Gas In the Home There are many ways ‘we can insure that America won't “tun out of gas” at. home. For instance, you can save a great déal on gas sim- © . ply by lowering the ther- mostat. And, you can keep the heat in and the cold out in. winter ‘with storm win- dows and weatherstripping. In the kitchen, remember to use small amounts of- water when boiling, so that less cooking time is needed. And, keep flame lowered to simmer — food will cook just as- quickly. One small drip can waste more than a thousand gal- lons a year, so do keep faucets working properly. - Make that-shower a short: one, or if you prefer a tub bath, use less water, Teele re eSoscencenbontentorte rere atante oaahensesceoece Park Avenue Realty Ltd. 4079 PARK AVENUE, TERRAGE,B..
