Acquire a knowledge of principles and
materials necessary to make the home more attractive, convenient and
comfortable within the family's resources.
Make things for your own room such as rugs,
wastepaper baskets, bulletin boards, etc. Make a list of things that would

each year. We encourage the 4-H'ers to work with other family members in
making their home improvements. Just keep a records of what member does
