Excerpt from The Party Book: A Book Giving Suggestions for Home Parties and Dances for St. Valentine's Day, St. Patrick's Day, Patriotic Occasions, After Easter Week, April Fool's Day and May Day; Also Ideas for Booths and Parades Hearts and flowers are the symbols of St. Valentine's Day and always make attractive decorations. To reproduce the table illustrated, over the silence cloth spread plain white crepe paper, then use the lower half of decorated crepe paper No. V461 around the table edge. Baste this on, covering the stitches with a strip of red crepe paper 11/2 inches wide. Little heart and cupid cut-outs suspended by narrow strips of paper trim the lower edge. Cupid himself is cut from design No. V461 and holds ribbon streamers as he swings from the chandelier. Ropes of flowers and a seat of matstock form the swing. An appropriate place card is one of wire wrapped with a narrow strip of red crepe paper, then bent into the shape of two hearts with a spiral standard. Serving cups decorated with red crepe paper and Cupid cut-out No. V230 carry out the swing idea. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
