TURKISH DELIGHTS

Wow, it's been such a whirlwind finishing up work projects and packing, that I have not had the chance to prep an awesome farewell blogpost. So, the big news is that I'm heading to Turkey, for a two week vacation to celebrate my dad's 70th birthday! I've ordered all the design guides, perused the turkish blogs, even downloaded a turkish book to prep for this last minute excursion. I even started a Pinterest board to get inspired by all the Turkish art.

Last year, I got the chance to travel to Morocco, a life long dream. It was a super inspiring trip when I literally took thousands of photos of incredible pattern inspiration. I even featured a whole month of Morocco here on the blog. This year, an impromptu trip to Turkey was offered and I could not resist celebrating this momentous occasion with my dad, and seeing such an incredible country. I've have several Turkish friends and heard so many wonderful things about Istanbul, that I look forward to seeing this country first hand. I love these painted plates, and am excited to see more Turkish Art in the upcoming weeks.
