The ad features a Broyhill Premier Gift Coupon for Petty Pepes' interior decorating book and tells you to choose the Concept collection "for timeless styling, fashion-right fabric." It's hard to tell, but it looks like there's a Broyhill Brasilia coffee table in the Concept section of the ad.
Another Vintage Broyhill Premiere Furniture Ad
Some more vintage magazine flipping and another Broyhill Premier ad, again featuring Miss Betty Pepes, noted interior decorator and house fashion editor.

A Well Defined Area (Rug)
We're in need of a new living room rug.
Our living room is mainly espresso-colored wood furniture, with a brown couch and pops of orange, brick red and some deep yellows. And I think we found our rug.
It's got a funky mid-century feel, and a bit of a shag. I think it'll meld nicely with our warm, chocolate living room.
Here's what it looks like in a living room that isn't ours.

Mid-Century Monster
I've said for a long time that woot! has some of the best copywriting on the web. As a new parent, I'm addicted to kids.woot! now too. As a mid-century enthusiast, I got a giggle out of the first paragraph of their latest blog post.
Being a parent is fraught with emotion - pride, joy, irritation, disgust - but for me, anyway, there's one that can be more overwhelming than the rest: terror. The thrill of "Oh, wow, she took her first steps" becomes the agony of "Oh, my god, I never realized how deadly the corner of that table is!" Then comes terror's quieter but just as brutal cousin, guilt: "How could I subject my kids to the dangers of mid-century modern furniture? WHAT KIND OF MONSTER AM I?" Don't even get me started on the nerve-jangling, gut-wrenching ordeal that is a trip to the playground.

Mid-Century Austin Find: Mid-Century Coffee Table and Bar
A great piece on craigslist.
From the description:
From the description:
Manufactured in 1963 it's an absolutely stunning original mid-century piece. This gorgeous table holds a secret: the top smoothly slides to reveal a bar compartment. The boomerang shaped tray/bottle caddy is on gliders and is pulled up and locks perfectly in place.
