Show FRAME FOR BRIDAL PARTY The design accompanying this description de-scription shows an original idea for preserving the individual photographs of a bridal group The central ovals may frame the faces of the bride and tier maid of honor while the six bridesmaids brides-maids fill the other spaces Another arrangement ar-rangement may consist of the bride and groom as central figures the maid of honor in the upper central small oval and the best man below the four corners cor-ners being occupied by the two bridesmaids brides-maids and two ushers if a smaller wedding party has been more expedient than the one with the greater number of participants The frame is very simply made on apiece a-piece of water color paper of any size preferred the ovals being first carefully care-fully drawn in position and the decoration decora-tion then put in place This latter should be chiefly of gilt on the white ground a touch of color being given by a dainty pink blue or green forming form-ing the main decoration on the top of each oval except the central ones and outlined with gilt as also are the broken lines of the mosaic pattern The Napoleonic wreaths are of course gfeen but the ribbons should match the color used In the other decorations Th 4h e Ings Is also gilt A pretty variation of this design may f consist of a vine of leaves forgetme j note pink rosebuds or any flower desired de-sired enclosing the rim of the oval whi ch latter still remains gilt the flowers being added to the design as it now appears When the painting is finished the portraits should be glued into position and the whole framed in passepartout teh glass being securely held by a linen tape which when bound about the edge lasts longer than paper and maybe may-be either left white or gilded to match the rest of the design On the back which should be of thin bristol board fasten with loops of the linen tape two little brass rings to hang the frame by and ask all the members of the group to place their autographs In this space and in this way may be obtained a pretty durable and exceedingly exceed-ingly Inexpensive souvenir of a happy occasion If a more elaborate frame be desired the same general design may bs reproduced embroidery using gold thread instead of gilding and working upon white satin a bit of the brides gown if possible OLGA STANLEY |
