Deep Love for Chevron

by Nina on December 8, 2010

The chevron print is not a new find. It’s been around for oh probably forever but every time I come across a new picture or idea using this bold pattern I swoon. The most adored use of the chevron print is when it’s incorporated in a traditional setting as a statement piece (see below left picture).

I’m extremely in-to the white & black mixed cabinets. I also love the oversized outdoor light along with the rustic looking table in the kitchen that doubles as a workspace island. And of course the chevron floor too!

I couldn’t pass up including this bedroom picture first spotted in the beloved & very missed Domino magazine. What an eclectic room!

*the above kitchen has absolutely nothing to do with the lovely pattern of chevron. But it is far too incredibly awesome not to share with all of you.

I found another new blog that I’m enjoying greatly. You might say The Fabulous Design File is the inspiration behind this post today because she posted a DIY project on her blog where she hand painted a chevron print rug. Check out her post. It’s fantastic! I sent the link to Kiks and asked her if she was up for making this our first 2011 project. I have not received a response yet. ha! I’ll keep you posted.

Happy Tuesday!!!

I have been loving chevron lately too. I’ve been using it in a lot of my blog designs. I can’t get enough of it and the quatrefoil pattern.

Nina, these pictures are GORGEOUS! I can’t say I’ve ever really liked the Chevron print, but seeing it done as well as in these pictures, it’s just fabulous!

Every time I see a chevron, I think about my military service. Chevrons and rockers!
