What I'd give to spend a weekend in this adorable Key West vacation home designed by
Todd Richesin! Melissa of
The Inspired Room posted several photos from the very cool home featured in
Traditional Home, but it was the guesthouse and pool that stopped me in my tracks. It's picture-perfect in every way!

Thank you all for your super-supportive comments again regarding my time at
Hallmark! The presentation went SO WELL. I couldn't have been more pleased with my first-ever speaking engagement! I think the success can be fully attributed to the fact that I was talking about my two favorite things: turquoise and blogging! You guys should have seen the reception afterward. They had turquoise cupcakes that were painstakingly made by Hallmarker Laura of the blog
Oh For Heaven Cakes (I can't get over that name...too cute!) They tasted just as fantastic as they looked! Loved the yummy turquoise punch too, talk about perfect color! A giant thank you to Scott, Susan and Marita for their kindness and hospitality. I thoroughly enjoyed every second with them! I had the fortune of meeting so many cool, creative people! I really dug the energy and creativity flowing through the halls of Hallmark, the inspiration everywhere was incredible. What a great experience!
For a recap of my presentation, including some more photos from the day, head over to the
Dirty Laundry Blog! Jeanee is yet another cool Hallmarker with amazing talent! (You have to see the present she gave me, I promise you'll love it too!)

Congrats on your first speaking engagement, sounds like a fun and colorful event! I'm obsessing over that miniature guest house in the first pic, gorgeous!
Congrats, Erin! Those cupcakes look fantastic! I bet they tasted delicious!!! xoxo
Congratulations on your speaking engagement AND those great cupcakes. I used to work for a Hallmark store, and I have to say that they've done some great things with color over the past couple of years. Maybe a turquoise line is next?
Erin, congrats to you! I adore key West, so lush!
I think you will like the Designer Giveaway on my site!

Welcome back!!
I also love the guest house. Now THAT would be a great vacation spot.
I don't know which I like more -- the blue and dark pink fabric or the blue and yellow. Both are dreamy.
Happy Friday and again, congrats Erin!!

I think I may be inspired to make some cupcakes later this weekend. My hips thank you for putting THAT idea in my head!
