" i*Li* y.viv • i V ' t - ideas for giving a bedroom a face-lift, jhe fastest and least expensive way is with crisp hew curtains and bedspreads. In today's market, there is a wide assortment of very stylish and moderately priced ready- made bedroom ensembles. The harried young woman no longer needs to take time out during her busy day to try to mix and match patterns and styles., According to Kay Lewis, Vice President of Design for Kenneth,Home Fashions, "more attention has been fo­ cused on the design of bedroom ensembles in ifecent yean than ever before." She noted that there are more pattterns to choose from and the quality is better than ever. Many are even washable. The romantic canopy From a very private and feminine room, one of the most exciting ways of escaping from the hustle and bustie of every­ day life is by lying beneath a canopy. Even if the bed doesn't have one, it's easy to make by constructing a framework with dowels bought in a lumberyard. Rows of eyelet embroidered ruffles add a soft look to the room. A great way of creating your own little "heaven" is by hanging a pair of eyelet embroi­ dered deeply ruffled curtains, such as Kenneth's "Valerie," on each corner topped by the canopy valance. For an airy look, use tiebacks and, for a free-flowing effect, leave the curtains open. Moreover, there arg many simple and creative ^RysJgL giving ready-made a custom^/. made look. An idea offered by the designer, is to use tiebacks such as braid wool, wool tassel, a strand of pearls, or even a sash from an okl dress that comple­ ments the curtains. For a more formal look, sim­ ply twist the strands of wool to make a heavy cord tie. Or try making a tie using wide grot- grain or velVet ribbon that picks up the colors of the drapery. For a swaggered back effect, use a heavier fcback such as a silk tie or a leather belt. As times change, ideas change. A bedroom can be per­ sonalized according to a wom­ an's change in lifestyle, mood or even just for fun during a rainy Sunday afternoon. (. * '<« THE GAL WHO OCCUPIES THIS FRILLY BOUDOIR k ear- tainly no tomboy! Rows of eyelet embroidered ruffle* are brought together to create this utterly feminine room. The quitted double ruffle bedspread teams with a canopy ruffle used atop the homemade canopy frame. The effect is com­ pleted, according to Kay Lewis, Vice President of Design for Kenneth Home Fashions, by using four pairs of 63" priseflla curtains tied back with velvet bows that can be let loose when privacy is needed. A set of ruffled tier curtains, teamed with short prisciOas with self valance, pull the room together. This pattern called "Valerie" Is from Kenneth Home Fashions col­ lection of bedroom ensembles and comes in white or beige.
