Over the years at various networking events, we've made a ton of friends ( I know - shocking right?). Earlier this year at Blogfest 2012, we met Erin, author of the wildly popular blog House of Turquoise. We'd been a fan for a long time so it was fun to finally connect face to face.

Every hardworking blogger needs a vacation so Erin got smart and decided to come down South to Charleston and Tybee (2 faves for Joann and I) for some R&R. While the cats away, the mice are hard at work keeping her blog rollin'.

If you haven't tuned in to House of Turquoise - you need to. Erin has brilliantly capitalized on the joy and beauty that the color Turquoise brings to home decor and design!

So here's our guest blog for her today!!
