I know I can't be alone here...those kitchen shelves?? Love at first sight! The colorful pottery collection looks stunning against the blue background (Benjamin Moore's "Harbor Haze")! Love the rest of the kitchen too, and that gorgeous chandelier (a find from Paris!) in the dining room!

Pretty sure <a href="http://elitedestinationhomes.com/luxury-vacation-rental/caribbean/turks-caicos/villa-pima/" target="_blank">Villa Pima</a> would be the perfect place to take in all of the breathtaking turquoise water! My days would undoubtedly be spent by the pool (staring at the ocean, of course!), but evenings on the porch or curled up on the cute sofa would be total heaven! Oh, and there's a private swimming pad down on the water too...you couldn't tear me away from that! See that and lots more (including rental info–we could all chip in!), head <a href="http://elitedestinationhomes.com/luxury-vacation-rental/caribbean/turks-caicos/villa-pima/" target="_blank">here</a>!<br /><br />A happy weekend to you all! :)<br /><br /><br /><span style="font-size: 85%;"><span style="font-style: italic;">Love turquoise?

Susan Fisher Plotner of <a href="http://www.fisherhart.com/" target="_blank">Fisher Hart Architectural & Interiors Photography</a> beautifully captured this home designed by <a href="http://www.carolflanagandesign.com/index.php" target="_blank">Carol Flanagan Interior Design</a> out of Greenwich, Connecticut. The harmonious balance of texture, color and pattern, paired with a comfortable, inviting vibe makes me want to move right in! I'm especially loving the kitchen....yet another turquoise island (painted Benjamin Moore's "Woodlawn Blue") leaves me drooling!
