Decorating with 'Cottage' Checks!

[Ellene Meece]

I don't know about you, but nothing speaks of vintage cottage more than a check pattern fabric! Either on the window coverings or the furniture or just a touch with a throw pillow or tablecloth.

And....it can be gingham check, or buffalo check or plaid check...all lend the same homey, "cottagy" feel.

It can grace the kitchen, the bedroom, the bathroom or even the front porch.

The lovely fabric can be in any color to do it's magic: red/white, blue/white, green/white, black/white, pink/white and many more blends of color.

Check...Mate offers lots more decor ideas with 'Cottage' checks!

What's your favorite?

What do you think? Does this design capture the cottage feel in the bedroom with red and white gingham? Too much? What would you design?
