Traditional to Contemporary in today's market.

It's not only the fashion world that use tartan in their creations. You will also see it in the home, in or on the car and certainly on a picnic.

Whilst searching to for all things Tartan I came across this ....

 
Tartan Mini Cooper - http://www.worldcarfans.com/10602037881/mini-wears-bisazza
It's definetly eye catching. When I think of Tartan and a car, I actually thinking more along the lines of a blanket that you would keep in their for picnic etc. My Tartan search continues with looking for a classic Tartan blanket and a Contemporary one too.

On the left I chose a traditonal blanket in terms of colour and for the same reason the image on the right has a more contemporary feel due to the colour combination.

 Wow there is alot of Tartan going on in this one room. Tartan wallpaper, throw and duvet. If only the lampshade was Tartan too, that would really finish off the room. This gives me my next item to search for...

I have fallen in love with this beautiful lampshade, the use of colours in the tartan work wonderfully together. The beige softens the blue and red and the black defines the whole check.

Now other then the car I want to find the wierdest tartan item I can!

  I feel these are certainly up there in the weird stacks.

Whilst walking around my own home I noted down all the Tartan items, I found I had a lot more then I realised, they include a scarf, 1 small luggage bag, my dad's bowls bag, inside of a rain mack and several shirts.
