Reupholster colors for our set that looks like this?

Ann Danen
10 years ago
We have a midcentury dining set and the chairs and table look just like this one. Would anyone want to offer color/pattern suggestions for the seats? I need to reupholster them as they are worn and I'd like to find something to compliment the era, but also to hopefully warm the starkness of the style. Thanks!!
