Buffalo Check

Have you been noticing this fabulous check is making a comeback again? I think this once “country” decor pattern is looking so much fresher & modern. Yet, it just has a cozy, "homey" (is this technically a word???)  feel to it? I love the large pattern of it and am considering adding it in the nursery as maybe a crib skirt and leading edge on the curtains???

Check out the these inspirations I have been pinning away…

BTW, these are the colors I am going with for the nursery-gray, beige/tan with a bit of orange.

This is from Ikea at $8.99 a yard, can you believe it? We’ve been planning on going for a few things so I need to go sooner rather than later if I want to get this nursery completed in August!

or a more gray check?

Pretty cute! I think an accent wall might be just enough for my taste. This would be charming in a laundry room, too. This is from the 2012 Southern Living Idea House. This year it’s here in Georgia about an hour south of Atlanta. I rounded up a new friend down here to go with me and check it out.  Looking forward to it!

What do you think? Liking the large scale check these days, too? 

Have a great weekend!
