I'm not sure I'm in the right thread for this question, or if we even have an appropriate thread...

I have some furniture that I want to get reupholstered, it's a dining table with two benches and two chairs (I guess it's called a banquette). The cushions on the chairs and benches look like they came from an 80s Winnebago.

I've sought out quotes for reupholstering and they range from a few hundred to a couple thousand, for labor and parts (fabric + foam). Is there any resource on the web where I might be able to get this set identified? Realizing that it's a needle in a haystack with all the thousands of designs that have been manufactured over the decades. But it would be nice to upload some photos and maybe someone out there has identifying information - I just might get lucky enough to find direct drop-in replacements for these cushions.

Both new foam and fabric are likely needed. Here's an album with photos of the pieces (sans table):

Here's my bastardized bricks. In my defense, and in my opinion, the bricks were bastardized before. They had some kind of baked-on smear or glaze that gave them an odd, 80s-flavor pink/lavender/grey look:



We wanted a nice, brighter teal door, and it clashed with the roof and the pink brick, so I said gently caress it and limewashed the non-structural, decorative brick strips:







I did 2 coats of limewash. It was 5 parts hydrated lime, 1 part regular table salt, and water to mix until it was the consistency of pancake batter.

This last photo was done almost a year ago, with a Utah winter in there, so that's how it's aged so far.
When it gets wet, it takes on a bit of a translucent look, but it dries straight back to solid white.

It has a slight chalky feel to it but doesn't sluff off at all. It feels like stone to the touch. It is very matte.

You're going to have to rehost from DropBox.

This discussion has given me an idea- what's the oldest piece in everyone's house? Extra points if it's something you inherited rather than an antique you bought.

This wall unit was made in Quebec in the 1900s or 1910s, for a warehouse. Each shelf has a number stenciled on it. Apparently the warehouse had a whole wall of these side by side. I use it for miscellaneous storage, as you can see.

My dad used to drive by the store in Toronto with this unit in the window, back in 1972ish. It was originally $600, then a while later $500, then $400, I can't remember if it got down to $300 but my dad says he offered $100 less and it was an instant sale.

I once did historical re-enactment at a 19th century British Army fort in Canada, and one of the points of knowledge was that the doorways were short because people were shorter then. The period being re-enacted was 1860s and 70s so that tracks.

Highland Park, IL is the location of Cameron's house in Ferris Bueller's Day Off, where Cameron kills the car at the end. The realty websites seem to have taken the pictures down, but articles about its sale a few years ago have pictures. The address is 370 Beech Street, Highland Park IL 60035:
