Today's Guest Blogger: Danielle of Fresh Quince

It's rare for me to find a kindred spirit in this world, and I have certainly found one in Danielle of Fresh Quince, today's special guest. Danielle proudly earns the title of the Queen of Craigslist because, let me tell you, this lady has an eagle eye for secondhand finds. Let's all say hi to Danielle!

Hi everyone! Danielle here from Fresh Quince. Summer to me is time to get out of the house and soak up the sun. My ten year old son thinks so too and that is why the first thing I think about is swimming in a pool. Every year I day dream about building a natural pool in my backyard and having parties all summer long (with lots of supervision for the kids of course...I'm a tad bit paranoid.) A natural or 'green' pool requires no chemicals to maintain, instead it uses water circulation through organic filters and plants to keep it bacteria free. I don't know about you all, but I hate what chlorine does to my skin. So here are few inspirational summer time natural pool images that I have saved and drool over every year...

This is probably the only pool that would fit in my backyard...

  5. Hahahaha Cassie...I suppose a natural pool isn't for everyone because yes there would be more critters for sure. :)
