Bamboo Is Best is the title of one of my most popular Pinterest boards
and my design mantra as well.
I think Dorothy Draper said every room needed a touch of black.
I agree, but I think every room needs a touch of bamboo.
Or in my case - more than a touch.
I like my bamboo in big doses.

And it turns out I'm not wrong about this.
Vintage bamboo, reproduction bamboo, faux bamboo and new styles of bamboo furniture are everywhere these days.

It's really timeless.
Our first flatware many, many years ago was bamboo.
And here we are still using bamboo flatware.
Bamboo is so versatile.
You can use a room full of bamboo furniture or mix in a touch of bamboo into traditional, contemporary and rooms of every style.
Inside and outside.
More formal

or relaxed and casual.

Bamboo works in every room and with every style.
It's the "neutral" of furniture.
So, here's a little bamboo eye candy as we breeze in to the first weekend of August.
It's still Summer in my book
(I do not care what the Metro Atlanta School Calendar says)
and there's plenty of time to enjoy some tropical bamboo accents.
For this "Bamboo Friday" I'm focusing on natural bamboo pieces:
This bed from Anthropologie is perfection.
I wouldn't be mad if this showed up at my house.
Or this entire bedroom set up from One Kings Lane:
If not a whole bamboo bed then a vintage rattan and bamboo bedside table
adds warmth and another texture to this pretty bedroom:

(And I'd like to point out that her toddler created the b/w modern artwork!)
Bar carts are another place I like natural bamboo tones:
This one is styled up in Amanda Louise perfection:
I have a couple of bamboo bar carts and I use them for anything and everything!
More styled to perfection bamboo bar carts here.

This gorgeous dresser came to live in my family room at the beginning of the year.
It was too gorgeous to paint.

(I'm not a fan of big, black TVs from a design standpoint
but they are a reality and the bamboo dresser takes it up a notch in my opinion.)
Bamboo dressers are being used in every room of the house these days.
Gorgeous, repurposed storage.
Everything about this powder room with it's bamboo dresser turned vanity is fabulous!

We think vintage bamboo is so fabulous that we started a business finding and selling what we can bear to part with :)
See what that's about here and here!
I love bamboo so much that maybe "Bamboo Fridays" should be a thing!
