Liebster Award & Nominations




Hello everyone! I'm very humbled to say that I've been nominated for a Liebster award by the lovely Dancing in the rain and in this post I'll be explaining what it is, answering the questions and giving a run down of my nominations.

The rules:

Thank and link the person who nominated you

Answer the questions they asked you

Nominate and link 11 bloggers (with under 200 subscribers) of your choice and ask them 11 new questions to answer on their blogs

Let the bloggers know that you've nominated them

The questions:

What is your favourite thing about bloggingKnowing that whatever I'm choosing to write about is reaching people all over the world and they're taking time out of their day to read it and enjoy my blog. It makes me feel really proud.

Do you live by a particular quote? If so which one? Well this is a hard question for me to answer because I have so may quotes that I adore and I could list them off all day but my favourite would have to be "When you seek beauty in all people and all things, you will not only find it; you will become it"

What's the last photo you took on your phone? A shameless selfie from the other day when I went to a Christian Youth meeting.

What do you do that wastes the most time? Well I personally don't see it as a waste of time but others do and that is sitting watching Youtube videos for hours on end. I just really enjoy Vlogs and would love to do it myself one day!

What is your sleeping schedule like? I usually plan to go to sleep around 11pm and end up staying up until about 3am on Tumblr (no shame) and I wake up relatively early, about 8am most days.

Glass half full or half empty? Half full. If you ever think the glass is getting full, you just need a bigger glass.

Who would you most like to be stuck with in a lift and why? If the person could be dead or alive I'd choose my grandma because she passed away in 2008 and I was so close to her, I'd love to spend time with her again.

What has been the best moment of your life so far? Without a doubt, becoming a born again Christian. My life has never been the same and I thank God for that every day.

Is there a post that you've always wanted to write but have been to scared to? Yes, but I just mentioned it in the previous question because I don't want to hide my religion any more and I'm proud of who I am.

If you could change one thing in the world what would it be? The ridiculous judgements cast upon people and the impossible standards imposed upon men and women. Be who you want to be.

Are you proud of yourself? Definitely.

My nominations: 

I haven't got 11 as I don't know many small blogs but let me know in the comments some good ones and I'll check them out!


Go check out all these lovely blogs, they deserve it! 

 11 questions for my nominees:

If you could only listen to one song for the rest of your life, what would it be?
Have you stuck to your new years resolution?
What's the post your most proud of writing?
Are you a cat or a dog person?
If you had a time machine would you go back in time or into the future?
What is the 23rd photo on your phone?
What is your greatest strength or weakness?
What's the best film you've ever seen?
What's your favourite season and why?
What's the weirdest thing you've ever given as a gift or received?
What are five places you'd love to visit?

So there it is. Thankyou to Dancing in the rain for nominating me and I hope you all enjoyed reading this tag.
Lots of love

Polagram Polaroid Photo Review

Hello everyone! Recently I have been re-decorating my bedroom and I wanted to add a personal touch to my theme. I found an app called Polagram, which takes photos from your phone and turns them into polaroid pictures for you. I thought it would be a really cute idea to hang some up in my room and I ordered 16 of my favourite photos form my iPhone. 


The app itself was so easy to use and explained the process easily. Once you choose the photos you want you can add short messages to the photos and adjust the image so it fits the way you want it to.


At a low cost of only £0.29 a photo and only £1.69 postage, they were a complete bargain! I had no issue with receiving my order and they came quickly. When they arrived I was pleasantly surprised as they were in-cased in a pretty pink envelope and once I opened it I saw the photos looked amazing!


I hung them on my wall and I've had loads of compliments on how nice they look.
I have a referral code to give you a free £2.00 to spend on Polagram : PGKQSYFN 


I'll definitely be ordering more print form them soon and not only do they print polaroids, you can also get phone cases, photo books, posters, calendars and normal prints.


Download the app and let me know what you think! If you have ordered any polaroids or other things from Polagram tag me in them on Instagram and Twitter too, I'd love to check them out.
Lots of love
