Adore & Elsa Soyars

This beach house designed by the talented Elsa Soyars and featured in the latest Adore Home has been floating around the blogosphere, but if it doesn't scream House of Turquoise, I don't know what does! I was so happy to see more of the fabulous home in Elsa's portfolio. I've been a big fan of hers for a while now (see my post here). It's just the way she does beachy chic is so up my alley! I just can't get enough of the neutral colors brought to life with the cheery turquoise. Did you see that kitchen?! I need to wipe the drool off my keyboard here.

Seriously...is there a Hamptons home that I don't like?!

Enjoy your weekend everyone!! I don't know about you, but I need to get some serious shopping done!

Wren's Big Girl Bed

If you've been following along, you know how much I've loved the precious nursery belonging to little Wren, the daughter of Holly of Life in a Fun Lane fame. She has created such a darling space, with the most beautiful furniture and soothing colors. I've thoroughly enjoyed seeing Wren's room transform as she's grown a bit older, and now that she has her very own big girl bed, I just had to share! You can see what it used to look like here and here! And for more pics and to see what Holly has to say about it, go here!

The Cross Decor and Design

When Chrissa the Design Junkie featured this space on her Facebook page a couple weeks ago, it immediately left me breathless. If I could decorate my home entirely in turquoise, hot pink and white, I'd be one happy camper. This suite from the Millennium Water Development featured on Carrie Leber's blog was designed by The Cross Decor and Design out of Vancouver. That bedroom is jaw-dropping...one of my all-time favorites! If you want to replicate the look in your home, most everything you see is available in their online store. I need that tufted bed!

Garry Mertins

Dream bath alert! Little Rock designer Garry Mertins created this soothing spa-like retreat that was featured in At Home in Atlanta and photographed by Nancy Nolan. I love that a custom wall color was created to match the existing tile. (I always get so sad when people want to get rid of turquoise tile!) My favorite feature here, other than the color, is the overflowing soaking tub. What I'd give to fill my bathtub up to the brim and soak away the day! Read more about this tranquil space here!

I cannot thank you guys enough for all the comments and emails yesterday! I was on Cloud 9 all day long, couldn't stop smiling! Your kind words only made me that much happier! THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!! :D

Stacey Haines

Remember that adorable coastal cottage from last week belonging to the talented photographer Stacey Haines? Well I've got more images to share from her! This story from Canadian Home & Country actually won Stacey a National Magazine Gold Award in Canada. She not only shot the story, but pitched the idea and produced the shoot. The cute cabin in Nova Scotia actually belongs to her parents and their family did the makeover together, so winning this award was super special to her! Read more about this cozy getaway here and view more amazing photography from Stacey here!

Cute Colorful Cottage

How cute is this cottage in Greensboro, North Carolina that was featured in Canadian Home and Country?! The 1939 Cape belongs to photographer Stacey Haines (a fellow turquoise lover) and her husband Steve, who renovated the space for less than $2,300. So many of the lovely items you see come from flea markets, yard sales and thrift stores, and they did all the work themselves. I know you all love that bedroom...it's just enough color that they only painted the one wall. Talk about pure heaven paired with all the white! Read more about this charming space here!

Diamond and Baratta

If anyone knows how to make a strong statement with turquoise, hands down it's Diamond and Baratta. I've shown you the vibrant home from the first image before (how could you forget it?), but I just came across the foyer and had to share it too. That chandelier made my heart stop! The other entrance I found on Absolutely Beautiful Things is from another Florida home designed by these two color geniuses. Granted we might not want to live in either home, but how fun to look at or visit. You just have to hand it to these guys for taking such bold risks!

Thanks for all your great suggestions yesterday about my upcoming trip to New York! You guys are so awesome! :)

Michael Robinson

Holy smokes, how spectacular is this kitchen?! So beautifully photographed by Michael Robinson and designed by Andy Villasana for The Lawrence Group out of St. Louis, I spotted it on Desire to Inspire when Kim was featuring the photographer. I'm just dying over the lighting in the 2nd image. Of course the tile is breathtaking, and oh my gosh that arch. You just don't see this stuff in real life! Thank heavens for the internet!
