Through the
hooking Glass
with Gabbi
Though April showers may
come y0u.... way. Say, this is
the month of showers isn't it?
I don't mean the kind you beat
with umbrellas (although Eth
el has these too, but I digress).
The ones I mean are the April
showers that precede June
weddings. Let's see what Ethel
has in the gift department for
blushing brides-to-be.
in the knife department
that is to say cutlery, not cut
department, Ethel has every
conceivable type of steak
knife and carving set. One
carving set in particular is
quit a interesting. It has a
wooden, flame proof case with
a self-sharpening device built
into it. There is also special
cutlery such as a birthday
cake knife and a bride's
knife. I couldn't quite figure
out what the bride needs a
knife for.
In the glassware
and the woodenware depart
ment are many lovely gift
ideas. Delicate glasses and
sturdy wooden salad bowls
and canape dishes make an
interesting display. Don't ov
erlook the fascinating vases
which are both practical and
decorative. In brilliant tur
quoise and deep yellow, these
would add a final touch to an
array of gifts. For a new look
in dishware, be sure to see
Carbone's glazed pottery in
two-toned shades.
We can't overlook
our other (and dare I say
bitter) half s, now can v 4
girls? While browsing around
Ethel's the other day, I came
upon a very unusual set of
bookends. They are blocks of
simulated stone with a design
in relief on the front. Handy
They are, too. When not sup
porting books, they can be
used to wake up sleepy room
mates, to put roommates to
sleep, etc:, etc.
So long for now.
