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!

So hard to choose which is my favourite. Just scouring the web looking for some inspiration for my office makeover and I've certainly found some here. Turquoise is a colour I've only considered for bathrooms before but I see I've been missing out!
