CRACKED W ALLS ARE OUT, and t he ha ndsome Med i t e r ­ r anean l ook i s i n . En t e r p r i s e I j i t ex Tex tu r e P a in t l e t s you pa in t c r a c ks and s eams away . . . and deco ra t e a t t h e s ame t ime . There's hope for cracked, unsightly walls -- paint If the house creaks and groans, and the growing pains have gone to its walls, don't fret. Today, there's no reason why decor should suffer the agony of cracked walls and ceilings Local paint departments have prod­ ucts that actually paint the cracks and seams away . . and decorate at the same time. New Enterprise Latex Texture Paint is just such a product. Yet, it 's much more than a decorator's pet. One coat hides cracks, nailholes, and seams. All you do is fill small holes with the paint. Let dry. Then texture paint the entire wall. (It 's as easy PAGE -SI" PPL MEAT TO Nlc HENRY PLA1NDEALER- 'Americana' spirits High The biggest birthday party of the 20th century looms ahead, and the Americana" look will reign supreme. The bright, clear flag colors of red. white, and blue -- all three together, alone, in pairs ior with darker, deeper versions) -- will fly high everywhere. Documentaries, quilts, ginghams, patchworks, homespuns, bandannas and denims are tradition­ ally American Oak, maple and pine furniture with pewter ac­ cessories--all will rekindle those good olde predict­ able days gone by when country was king and to­ day's super urban world did not exist. The American Bicenten­ nial Celebration brings on many idea.s for home decorating, too Various accessories, genuine an­ tiques or fine reproduc­ tions, will probably in­ crease in popularity as we approach 1976 ( HECK T HI S OI T When wearing tattersall checks, you're showing horse sense as well as fashion sense! The popu­ lar checked pattern was named after the horse market started by Richard Tattersall in 1766 in Lon­ don. Sportsmen of the time began to wear waist­ coats of this pattern, a trend which continues. WED..JULY 31. 1974 Paradise for a painter as painting.i If you do nothing more than brush it on, walls will be given handsome, durable, adobe character. But you can do so much more. Before it dries, etch in additional designs -- swirls, peaks, patterns with ordinary household tools A spatula, trowel, brush bristles, even a piece of carpeting, work fine. And it 's in latex, with quick water clean-up. Enterprise Latex Tex­ ture Paint comes in white and stunning pastels in Sand Texture, with showy sand granules, and in Smooth Texture that has the same Spanish flair but without the sandy look.
