Newlyweds Should Plan Home By VMM Brawm Nmtotares Writer Youof couples furnishing a first have different re- qtlirementi from those of an established family, ioeff time designer decorator, Gulden, who teaches a college course credit at Queens College in New York. They should know how much money they have at the start to spend, what type of furnish- iajji they want modern, traditional or whatever, what col-; on' they like and whether they i will live in a house or apart-' meat," he says. CoBfoeion Gulden would like to see every couple start with decor- stor, "not only for the ease of decorating, but the saving in BMoejr and confusion." They should at least start out i knowledge, he Mjrt. He has devised a formula for decorating, Dtal a Style, to be published soon that he hopes will be helpful. By spinning wheels directed to styles, one finds out historical backgrounds, what fabrics, accessories and colors accompany the style dialed.

Suggests Floor Plan "Another important idea Is floor plan. A large piece of furn- turo such as a triple dresser may not fit properly into a room nd may prove loo bfg to move around staircase landings or even to get into the house or apartment," he advises. Gulden suggests a floor plan be worked out on the scale of Phone TA 7-2906 Bonds Insurance No. Santa Fe RALPH WEIGEL one half inch to a foot on pa- er. And that lists of rooms be made with details such as sizes and placement of windows, doors, fireplaces, closets.

Cut outs of furniture may put over the floor as a test for fit and for i general idea of (he space required, he says. "Young people never realize how much storage space is needed, so some furniture should be chosen with that idea mind. Cabinets with doors or drawers are better in that respect than those with legs," he says. Cheerful Accessories Gulden suggests taking color scheme from fabrics. He doesn't believe in, startling col ors, preferring to put cheerful ness in the accents of accessor ies which can be changed when you are tired of them.

"I always try to talk youni people into good bedding. Star' with mattress and spring on legs. Later have the mattress and spring built into regular beds." When deciding on formal or informal room, schemes think in terms of suitability, whether you are the outdoor type or the sit at-home type, he says. He advises his students: A family room is useful for a ig household, but costly icwlyweds who'll be tempted to ise it for storage. Decide on the essential pieces ou can buy now and which aieces can wait six or onger.

C. M. Dear Mrs. C.M.: Fit the. bodice first, sew the underarm seams about 3 inches, leaving BOTH side seams open the rest of the way.

Slip your bodice on and tie a string tightly around the waistline. pull up a little ease, so that you can comfortably move your arms. When this has been adjusted, place pins just under the string as a guide for the waistline seams. Next, baste the skirt to ttie bodice, joining the bodice front to the skirt front, and the bodice back to the skirt back (leaving BOTH side seams completely open.) Place dress on, right side out, and see if the waistline is in the correct position. If so, you can easily pin the side seams while the dress is on you.

Don't worry if the pins aren't in exactly straight, just so you have a guide to use for the seamline. After the fitting is completed, separate the seams, rub colored chalk on the pins, and just like magic, the marks will show up on the wrong side where you will need them in or der. to machine stitch. Naturally, it takes a little more time to fit yourself than it does to have someone else do this for you, but it does work. I fit all of my own clothes!

G. Dear Mrs. V. Possibly the lining pulled little too tight in the hem. May I suggest that before you lave the hem marked, you push up a little of the lining above the hem, and baste in place.

Now, when the hem js complete, there will be a little extra "give" in the lining and should keep the hem nice and flat. Stops Slithering Crepe Mrs. Markeloff, Rome, New York, is the winner of this week's Tailor Trix pressing board for this helpful suggesion: "I found when making a white crepe blouse (never again), that not only did it slither around when cutting, but was impossible to sew an sven. seam. "I finally found the answer, your crepe (or any similar fabric) on large sheets of Jssue paper.

Pin your pattern, fabric and paper together. Keep the paper pinned to the fabric white making seams, darts, etc. It will sew like a dream. When finished, simply pull off the paper." Dear Eunice: Being an experienced seamstress, I'm quits confused and it is disturbing. Blouse patterns show the buttonholes made on the right back, and ready made blouses of this type have the buttonholes on the left back.

Who Is right? Mrs. P. W. Dear Mrs. P.W.: have looked through many i patterns after reading your letter, and have also checked on many ready made blouses from the cheapest to the most expensive.

I find that both patterns and ready made blouses have used ttw buttons on BOTH sides. doesn't seem to be any right cr wrong on this subject. Guess It's op to you, tn other words "dealer's choice."
