You can save on lamps "by buying several of the “knocked down” variety. Try painting them with black lacquer and choosing plain lamp shades.’You can also save end tables, bookshelves and dra ries.
Cut the legs off of inexpensive card tables to sofa height. Cover with marbelized paper and paint the legs to match. Book shelves can be planned chest height to hold the lamp, books and flowers. Use one shelf as a table.. Put a chair near by.
Save on draperies and shades. Don’t use them. Instead, use a natural cotton that will not fade, heavy enough to screen the light and provide privacy when drawn. Use deep double hems so they can be let down when they shrink.
Skimp on chairs. Those modified captains’ chairs found in some mail order catalogues are smart. You can stain and finish them natural, or paint them a gay color. A set of six will be enough for the dining area and the living room for the first few years.
Don’t forget that if you have a keen eye and lots of elbow grease, you can benefit from bargains in some second-hand furniture shops. Streamlining and refinishing will make old furniture look like new.
