What a year!!! Last month I passed my five-year milestone of writing House of Turquoise. Every single day I get so much joy out of searching for beautiful interiors, but it makes it all the more rewarding sharing the beauty and talent with my readers–people who I know truly appreciate it and get inspiration out of the photos! So once again, thank you all so much for visiting my little turquoise world!

Margaret Donaldson Interiors
















Years ago I shared a photo of this droolworthy bedroom designed by Margaret Donaldson Interiors out of Charleston, South Carolina. I'm sure so many of you have already seen it! When I discovered even more pics, imagine how super excited I was!! Definitely over the top (in a fabulous way!), the turquoise bedroom in the Southern Living Idea House was inspired by the yummy assortment of Designers' Guild fabrics used for the custom duvet cover. Even the ceiling features a faux-finished pattern interpreted from the bedding. Such luxe furnishings here...that mirrored canopy bed is absolutely gorgeous! What a great bathroom too!! Tour more of the Southern Living idea house here (In the City), it has turquoise throughout!

Pulliam Morris Interiors






I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas!! I will tell you this much, our house looks like a tornado went through it right now (a sign of an excellent celebration!), so it's a treat to see this incredible Atlanta home designed by Karen Menge of Pulliam Morris Interiors. How drop dead gorgeous is that dining room?! I don't think I'd ever be able to dine, my eyes would refuse to stop staring at those walls covered in the magnificent Zuber wallpaper! The kitchen is great too, LOVE all the marble and fabulous blue island! Definitely finish your tour of this amazing home here!

Christmas Eve with The Visual Vamp
















Without fail, Valorie Hart of The Visual Vamp wowed me with her Christmas decorations again this year! I wondered if she was going to pull out her oh-so-fabulous collection of Tiffany boxes to put under her tree again, but alas, it turns out they are missing! (SO sad!!) As much as I miss the old boxes, I'm absolutely loving what she did this year, photographed here by Sara Essex Bradley. So shimmery and festive! Definitely go and check out even more of her pics right here! I don't know about you, but I am so READY for Christmas!!!

I wish you all a joy-filled Christmas Eve, safe travels and merriment all around!!

Centsational Girl
















My favorite blog to turn to around the holidays is hands down Centsational Girl. I'm telling you, Kate knows how to deck her halls with blue–and in such an inspiring way! Words cannot even express how much I love this year's decorations. From the sparkling ornament garland to the drop dead gorgeous tree...I adore it all! There's sooo much more over at Kate's blog though, every room is touched by her stylish cheer! Check out her holiday home tour here, with links to everything for even more info!


Have a wonderful weekend!! Christmas will be here before we know it!

Nicole Benveniste Interior Design






Short but oh so sweet today! I am madly in love with this room by San Fransisco interior designer Nicole Benveniste, which was photographed beautifully by Lily Dong. First and foremost, the pale turquoise faux bois painted wall by talented decorative painter Katherine Jacobus....STUNNING. I have such a thing for faux bois right now, and this just leaves me speechless. The fabulous vintage turquoise lamp, adorable window seat (notice the hardware?!), and delightful roman shade are so great too. And the colors. Such pretty, pretty colors!! Check out more designs from Nicole here!

Anna Dickinson + White Goat














My favorite thing about decorating our tree is hanging ornaments from all of our trips...such a fun walk down memory lane! Anna and Thomas Dickinson share the same tradition in their Little Rock, Arkansas home above–in fact the parasol tree topper is from a trip to Hawaii! Such an eclectic approach that I love here, and their white walls are the perfect background for all the color! Aside from the fun holiday decor, I LOVE all of their furniture...especially that turquoise chest in the last image! Turns out Anna co-owns White Goat, a European furniture, accessories and gifts store in Little Rock. The kitchen is pretty darn fabulous too, isn't it?! See even more photos by Nancy Nolan and read the article about the festive home at At Home in Arkansas!
