Tones were mixed in the same piece of furni- ture which helps a home- maker by miasking, soiled spots--or even allowing ber to change ber colour seheme with greater facility. Mixing and matching' becomes a pleasure, and you can add variety without having- to search for one specific colour.

Large tables can bc used to serve snacks, as a games surface, or a place to exhibit a small collection. Smaller tables can be easily grouped or moved to accom- modate a guest or a conver- sation area when they are needed. Clean designs The simple dlean designs and subdued pure colours that predominate today offer more versatility than in the past. One piece of furniture can serve many moles. A table or sofa bed can be u!îed in a bcd room. Iliving-roomn or fam- ily room. A smiall dresser wouldn't be out of place in a hall, or a long and low triple dresser could even be placed in a dining-room!

You can add to a moorn or subtract from a grouping 'as need or budget dictates. And your concept of what a home should be is a comibinaition of what is avail- able from your furniture deal- er and your personal taste and style of living.
