Beast Of The Year: Bison

By Mandi 02/06/2014

I know that according to the Chinese New Year we are up for a year full of horses. But I would like to submit for your approval, a beast that is a little bit more exciting than the horse. Meet the Bison.

Counting down the animal trends that have owned the internet from the conception of Vintage Revivals, we have the bird:

Could the new King of Cool be the Bison?

Yes my friends, yes he could.

I mean how can you not love this furry face?

(you can find this resin bison from White Faux Taxidermy here)

Or how about this AMAZING watercolor printable from one of my favorite artists in the entire world Ashmae Hoiland. That girl has MAD skills.

And last but not least. This is something I am FREAKING excited about. How about this Geometric Bison that is a Vintage Revivals exclusive for Cricut? My girl Jamie designed a whole Geometric Menagerie that will be rolling out in the next month. (I have a post explaining all things Cricut coming at the beginning of next week so sit tight!)

Go ahead. Tell me you don’t love them. It’s just not possible.

  1. I agree. Plus, I already bought a bison shower curtain from Ikea that I just loved. 😉

  2. I LOVE the bison. Earlier this year I bought Kevin Russ’ photograph “Street Walker” and I’ve been in full buffalo appreciation mode ever since!

  3. Bison have been my favorite animal for years, so if they really do become the new animal trend, I’m am going to be super pumped!

  4. I’m totally with you on the bison! Ironically, my husband is on board, too…kind of. He just discovered bison meat, and he is obsessed. That’s kind of something in common, right?!

  5. There’s an artist that shows up at our ‘family reunion’ powwow (ie not open to the public). He makes these buffalo silhouettes out of some kind of metal that ends up looking sort of rainbowy like an oil slick, and there are all different shapes, about 10 inches high. Anyway, a couple of years ago, I finally saved up for one, and now he lives in the hall and has been christened Frybread.

  6. I have a funny story that includes a girl (me), a missionary, a dear john, and a bison that I’ll have to share with you sometime.

  7. This is too funny! My sister-in-law and I were just reviewing all the ‘it’ animals… we put whales on the list too! And speculating on the next big thing… I’d be down with bison.

  8. Oh my gosh – my husband and I have totally fallen down the rabbit hole that is Ashmae’s shop. So many good options, we can’t choose! Thanks for sharing!

  9. I love Buffaloes. I especially like to eat them. I don’t eat beef. I would really like to have an antique stuffed one. Thanks for this post.

  10. I can’t seem to get the link to work for the downloadable bison print (never mind that I’m two years late to the party!) The colors and design would go perfectly in my daughter’s room that I am currently overhauling. Help please!!
