Warming trends Cozy decorating ideas warm up a room, says Jean Riddell, home and family management specialist, Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food, rural organizations and services branch. Use textured throws or quilts on sofas or chairs; add lots of pillows; hang up a 'favorite quilt on the walla If you have bare floors, add areas rigs. Use scatter rugs on top of area rugs or wall- to-wall broadloom to add extra coziness. Cover tables with cloths that reach the floor. This is another place to show off a favorite quilt. Protect the top with glass, QUOTE Of THE WEEK Be generous 7n your days of plenty, and be patient In the hour of Toss. Adversity Is followed by success and rejoicings follow woe. Guard against idleness and sloth, and cling unto that which profiteth mankind, whether young or old, whether high or low. Beware lest ye sow tares of dissension among men or plant thorns of doubt In pure and radiant hearts.

Dark colors, even in a small room, can make the i room appear cozier. Printed wallcoverings look warmer than the same colors in paint.: For cushions or slipcovers, choose prints like florals, rather than plains or geometries, to create a warm cozy look.
