Write a short comment on Joanna’s post. Once you locate a good post, write a short message. Don't overwhelm her - keep your post to 2 or 3 lines at most. At the end of your message, you can ask her to respond if she has time. Don't list your personal contact information on your Facebook post. Instead, ask her to contact you through direct message on Facebook. For example, you can write something like, "Hi Joanna! This beautiful kitchen renovation reminds me of all the inspiration we took from you for our own kitchen projects! We appreciate your point of view!"
