Buffalo Check Christmas Ornaments

"Whether you call it Buffalo Check or Buffalo Plaid, there’s no denying how wonderful this larger gingham pattern looks on Christmas decorations. While most people seem to prefer to use the black and white version, I think during the holidays the black and red version goes beautifully with rustic or country décor. These Easy Buffalo Check Christmas Ornaments were a cinch to make, too, since I used ribbon with the perfect scale for the ornament sizes. Lots of possibilities with these cute wood shapes!"
