SLAM! for last week’s topic, Faux Painted Headboards
The majority of you felt real headboards were the way to go, painted ones were not a good alternative.
This week, let’s talk Buffalo Check! I think it is a wonderful pattern. It adds a little color and pattern to a space, but is still neutral. It can be chic or country. Last week, I pulled it for a client as an option to re-upholster her wing chair, unfortunately she was not as nearly excited about it as I am.
Are you a fan?

BAM! Its classic and will be around forever. I personally am not overly drawn to it- but I can still appreciate it and love when its mixed with something more modern.

I big BAM with extra BAM for me! I love it. It’s a classic pattern but I the the buffalo scale can add a touch of whimsy to a room that might otherwise take itself too seriously.

I’m with Amanda here. I think it’s a classic and I use it for clients. It’s here to stay. I like my buffalo check with a bold modern print!

I L.O.V.E. IT!
But I’m surprised at how few people know what I’m talking about~
even in fabric stores when I ask if they carry any and where to find it in their store.
(same with hemp~?)
A Big Buffalo BAM for me!

Bam, bam, bam! It’s a way to add graphic punch and stay classic at the same time. Love it!
Bam on chairs, slam on a wall. I like it in small, preferably purple, doses:)

Yep, it’s a classic! a Bam for me. I had picked up a few yards of a black and white buffalo check when Calico was running a sale and I’m waiting for the perfect opportunity to use it somewhere.

Bam!
It’s a BAM from me! So classic and makes such a great statement.
Bam baby! Its classic yet graphic. Mixes well with other patterns and comes together in a modern way.

BAM! I think in the right space it looks great. I currently have a blue buffalo check couch and chair in my living room, but it doesn’t go with the decor… it’s just what I owned!
BAM! I think a touch of it here and there is great and adds a touch of masculine to a space. Loving that kitchen floor!
