You are hesitating and temporizing over tho choice of Wall Paperfor halls or rooms. You are in doubt what colors go best with Oak furniture, let us say. The selection of Draperies involves endless and intense discussions. Lace Curtains precipitate disconcerting arguments. Upholstering creates profound misunderstandings. Panellings and even Mouldings divide households. Points like these are debated by hours, and HERE WE ARE eager to give advice and suggestions without charging our clients a sou. Don’t be satisfied with pretentiously inferior INTERIOR DECORATIONS. We have solved the problem for thousands. We can solve it for you. We thoroughly understand the capabilities of all decorative fabrics, and never try your patience or fatigue your eye by displaying a mass of materials before producing the special one that will fill your particular need.
