My parents had a similar style with Berber covers and if my memory serves me right it would be about late 60's early 70's they also only had Noblett furniture for their dining and lounge coffee and buffet tables oh boy they were made to last and still were in excellent condition when they passed away so sad to have to let them all go but we didn't need it whoever bought them at auction will be happy, they will outlast a lot of the 'ready access' furniture that's available today. I can't remember if the lounge suite was Parker or Noblett but the style is the same.

Melissa, if you have children forget any sheepskin throws over the bench. wood metal and vinyls are the easiest to clean/maintain. Do you have any colour?- yellow or orange would look great against the blue rug and would look good with you material piecs..

For anyone looking for a linen colour without the continuous washing or ironing, be it a slip cover or re-upholstering a sofa, consider a crypton fabric. I have this on my sofa at home in Warwick's Tritan plains colour 'Pebble' (I sell club and hotel furniture so use crypton a lot). Its water repellent so liquid spills can be wiped off before it penetrates the fabric (less washing) and is washable if it gets dirty. Its a great alternative to linen because you can have the light colour and weave texture but without so many headaches with maintenance. The only drawback is it does not have any stretch like normal fabric so may not be able to be made in slipcovers for all sofa shapes. There are many Australian suppliers of cryptons but the best for price per meter and colour range are Warwick and Wortley Group.

Hi siriuskey. Not sure how to place the furniture yet. Still trying to work it out.. I am selling my dining table and chairs. My new chairs just arrived today. I bought some hooks to put my mirror up.I am going to order those prints shortly. Also trying to find a round dining table I like. Getting there slowly : Thanks for asking. Thank you Julie. Very kind of you. :) Thank you legendaryflame :)
