This is a series of ads that ran in print magazines during 1972 (and some also appeared in 1971), showcasing Sears’ latest home styles — bedlinens, curtains, carpet and more.

The Mixables sheet sets

Beautiful every way you mix them: Afraid to put a striped pillowcase on top of a sheet flowing with flowers? Most people are. So Sears is about to stop all the confusion. The Mixables are here!

Rajah bedspread

“Rajah.” Sears fresh translation of the Far East. It started as a museum show of India art. This rare lotus-and-arch design shone out, and captured our eye.

Showers of Flowers needlepunch bedspread

How on earth do you capture such glorius colors? It’s not easy. It takes a nearly forgotten craft called needulepunch. With tufting actually hand-guided to give colors deep dimension. It takes special yarns, too — yarns that are super-bright and beautiful.

Aquarius draperies

The textured weave in sun-drenched colors

Symbols II draperies

Turn the family room into your family’s favorite room

Matchmate shag carpeting

Sears presents Matchmate Shag. The first carpet in 50 colors.

Shades of the Tiffany look

The cane collection: When Mr Tiffany first saw pagoda umbrellas shading Oriental royalty, he went home and designed a lampshade. You loved it. We did, too.
