AGNES FOSTER WRIGHT
ws. Ao n k h Fo h t k ii Wimc iiit , a decorator widely known for the color charm of her interiors, tells you in her own words how she created this delightful kitchen:
"There is no room in the house which has a more direct oll'cct upon a woman's happiness and good spirits than the kitchen. And certainly no room which offers more interesting possibilities to the woman who knows what can lx* done with Duco and a little ingenuity to create (harming interiors. . .
"For this kitchen I chose three of the many lovely Duco colors avail able and used them with. I think, a quite unusual and interesting result. For the kitchen cabinet, tin* wainscoting, and the corner cupboard I chose Nile Green and Navy Blue, using the Blue for the trimming and the shelves of the corner cupboard. The table I painted solid Nile Green. In the sunny breakfast nook 1 painted the benches and the table with the same Na vy Blue.
"Then I was ready for my touches of contrasting color. The wall covcr-
ing was a cheerful greenish yellow with tiny green dots, harmonizing
beautifully with my green and blue. So I painted the chairs and stool
with Duco Mandarin Bed. and repealed this gay note in the* cheeked
gingham that made t he window curtains and tic-on pads for I lie; chairs.
I used Duco Mandarin Bed for flic bird cage, the (lower vase, and the
handle of the broom.''
