HATPINS ALWAYS AT HAND
Directions for Making Decorative Little Holder in Which Articles May Be Kept. In our sketch may be seen a simple yet decorative little holder for hat-pins for hanging upon the wall by the side of the looking glass For the foundation, a piece of stiff cardboard should be cut out In the shape indicated in our illustration, and about nine inches long; It is covered on both sides with some pretty
remnant of silk. On the lower part, fine narrow pockets are arranged into which the pins may be slipped in the manner shown. The holder Is entirely outlined with a fine silk cord, carried into three loops at the top and bottom and again at either side. The center loop at the top should be made rather larger than the others, as it Is by this loop that the bolder may be suspended from the wall. The colors of materials should be selected to spit the paper of the wall on which they hang, or in some way to go well with the general decoration of the room.
