Enhance daily living with beautiful linens
Vibrant, warm and fa-
miliar, table linens en-
hance the pleasant mo-
ments of everyday living.
Your table linens are
the background for every
setting . . . setting the
theme with texture, color,
and pattern. The look can
be modern, provincial,
traditional, Victorian, or
a combination.
Dramatic accent
As the background for
all your table treasures,
china, glassware and fa-
vorite decorations. and
centerpieces, choose your
linens as you select ward-
robe accessories, to com-
plement, to accent, to
dramatize.
For that special occa-
sion formal table, the
classic "white" linen 'ta-
blecloth is no longer the
rule. Although white is
classic and always in good
taste, today we have
adapted color throughout
the home.
Now the finest decora-
tive linens come in colors
that range from cool pas-
tels to brilliant jewel
tones. In using color, pas-
tel tends. to lend dignity
and a more quiet look .. .

effect.
For all times
Placemats of Belgian
linen and polyester can
set the mood for every
setting and occasion, as
illustrated. Proper and
elegant for the most for-
mal setting, embroidered
and decoratively edged.

tures trimmed in contrast-
ing colors.
Flexible, they adapt to
many different serving ar-
easy to care for since they
have a permanent press,

The right size table-
cloth is very important to
the look of the table. Bel-
gian linen tablecloths are
made in all sizes to fit
different tables, from the
rangements. They come in
all shapes . .. rectangle,
oval, round, and contour.
Delightfully practical and
popular bridge table, to
the lovely oval. oblong,
and round.
Remember the larger
the table, the longer the
overhang — 5" to 10" over-
hang for a small table —
10" to 15" for a larger
table. For a more gracious
appearance, buffet tables
may even have a longer
overhang.
Mix and match
Select napkins in a va-
riety of solid colors, plain,
embroidered, or appliqued
— all to mix and match.
Napkins are a decorative
touch, and also subtly in-
dicate formality or infor-
mality of the setting.
The larger the napkin
the more formal. Knowing
several napkin folds can
give your table settings a
little added dignity for
special occasions, amusing
touches at other times.
In selecting your table
linens do not forget main-
tenance. Since homemak-
ers must schedule less
and less time for house-
work, 100% linen cloths
have been supplanted by
a 65% Belgian linen '35%
polyester blend cloth with
a permanent press and
soil release finish.
Smooth and fold
Best results are obtain-
ed by tumble drying in an
automatic dryer. Remove
immediately at end of
cycle, smooth by hand
and fold neatly.
