New Upholstered Pieces Feature Unusual Colors
Iowa home furnishings expert June Brown notes a wide range of new color options for furniture this season. Dark shades like ice pink, purple, pumpkin and grape appear on popular fabrics, with greens such as olive and avocado in vivid tones. Lighter, pastel tones including beige, off white, tan and nutmeg join bold textures like foam rubber upholstery and fabric-backed plastics, while wood use increases in both modern and traditional lines.
