Eggshell trinkets offer a variety of decorative possibilities. The shell* LdfejM. can ba salvaged from family bait- i WK I ing days by runNF I rung a darning I needle through B the ,hell at boti> ends and blowin * out the C 0 tIF M* tents. If necesrU sary the holes i can be enlarged so that a frightfl 1 —-- 1 colored string with a knot in the end can be < il'"'! run throu K b fbe egg, so that it i may be gtjung ’ gaily on the tree. Before stringing on the tree, shells 1 may be colored all the hues at the rainbow, a* at Easter time. Or designs in pencil on the shell may be made in the form of scrolls, leaves or figures. The designs may be filled in with colors, outlined with black crayons. Christmas seals pasted on J white eggshells will be bright and shiny. Colored confetti dots can likewise be used on the eggs. Peanut dolls to hang on the tree can be made by stringing suitable sizes together and tying the cord tightly to keep them in shape. They can be painted gold or silver or any other ccter that will liven the tree and give the little talks a part in the decorative scheme. A ball-dozen star Santas swinging | from tne tree will add interest Make some five-pointed stars from heavy ' paper. Paste a Santa head onto the I top point and design white mittens ■ on the nest two, draw a belt and ; it's done. Bun a string through San- j la's hat and tie to a branch. Smail green squashes painted with j sheilae or varnish so they will retain their freshness can be either tied to the tree or arranged around the base. Pina cones tied with ribbons and perhaps a bell and painted white ar silver for make-believe frost are perfect for suspending from the tree. v Potted Yule Trees Can Be Used for Several Years The record of using the same Christmas tree for the last five holiday seasons is held by Mrs. H. R. Yount of Brunswick county in North Carolina. Mrs. Yount planted a small cedar by her farm house and the first Christmas it was about IS inches high. Ute placed it in a pot and used it as a table tree with appropriate decoration*. After the first Christmas, she replanted the small tree by the house, then dug it up again and placed it in a bucket oo a table tor Us second holidays. Again it was replanted and the third year it took its place on the floor with the children adding the necessary decorations. It was very carefully treated again reset by the house- For the tert two years it ha* been used as an outside Ciiriatmas tree to carry all the lights and decorations. Mrs Yount and the other mem* Amrs of the ttmftrta’W' made spaual prapare’JWS fer decorating t|» Uadi'ior.s! Christmas ties again thia year.
