Secret Santa Ideas

Secret Santa Ideas


Hello everyone!!

Last year I unintentionally done “Blogmas” where I blogged everyday until Christmas day. They were all Christmas related posts and I really enjoyed doing it even though it was a little harder than expected. It would make sense to do it again this year because I have a lot more people viewing my posts than I did last year but that is not the case. Since going to college and getting a job, I hardly have any time to sit down and put time into my blog, which is why in the last few months I have not been that active. I really thought I would do it again this year but I am not able to make that kind of commitment.  To make up for it I am planning to do as many blog posts as I can in December, most will be related to Christmas. I am hoping (fingers crossed) to do some Christmas baking posts because I have so many recipes that I am dying to share with you all.

This being the first Christmas post I have decided to kick it off with a Secret Santa gift guide. We are doing secret Santa in college this year and it can be hard to find gifts that are suitable to not only to your person but also to your budget. Our budget is £5, something I did not stick to and have gone over. Each item I am sharing with you today is under £10 to fit with most people’s budget. My guide is mainly aimed at females but if you do happen to get a male you could easily turn my ideas into male friendly. 

Socks - New Look , nail polish/ lip bullet tree decoration - Topshop, Soap & Glory Bauble - Boots, Bath bombs - Lush, Vanilla Bath Set - The Body Shop, Wine Gift Set - Tesco, the Snowman & the Dog white chocolate - Thorntons

Sunday Post #6

Hello everyone!! I hope you had a lovely week. I finally picked a song for my audition and have went with Out Here on my Own from Fame, a song I normally wouldn't have went for but I changed up the pace of the song to fit my voice and love how it sounds. The original is down below if you would like a little listen.


Today we had another little adventure only this time it was to the Kelvingrove Art Galleries & Museum and this place is filled with great art work. We mainly focused on just the bottom floor as my little cousins were getting a little bored looking at the art and much preferred the animals downstairs. The place was rather busy today which made it difficult for you to see anything. Although it was nice to have a little explore as I haven't been for a while and some things I had bypassed on my previous visits.


I can't believe it's now February, its just insane how fast January went past. It just doesn't feel right, I feel like I need to have Bernard's watch (if you remember that leave a comment below) and stop it so I can slow down time a little bit. It means that this month my prelims start and then its not too long till my real exams and this is the stage where I begin to freak out a little bit because I'm just not ready for all this.

I hope you enjoyed this post and have a lovely week!!!

Gift Guide for Book Lovers

Books :)

Hello everyone!! As I have already done a book gift guide for children, I thought I would share some book ideas for those people in your life that love books but are not children. Hope you get some inspiration and find the perfect book for someone special.

Post Secret - Frank Warren once had an idea for an art project which involved him handing out postcards and asking people to write down a secret but anonymously. Most of the secrets are pretty weird and some are really emotional.

Listography - This book is perfect for list makers, at the top of each page there is a title and below is to create the list based on the theme.

 Q&A  - I own this book and its a great little book to start your day but also a way of remembering and then in the future seeing how things have changed. Each day you are asked a question and over the course of 5 years you answer and see if things have changed or stayed the same.

 My Wonderful World of Fashion - This book is like a colouring book for those that are passionate about fashion and drawing.

Teen Vogue Hand BookThis book is the mix of beautiful pictures, career advice and profiles of everyone and every aspect of the fashion industry. Perfect for anyone interested in a career in the fashion industry. 

 642 Things to Write About - This book is great for those that love to write, the book gives a prompt and inspiration to write stories. Its a perfect way to help your creativeness pour out of you.

 The Travel Book - I own this book and I love it. The Travel Book captures the essence of every country on the planet through stunning photographs and atmospheric text

 Music Listography & Film Listography - These books are very much like the original Listography book only they are more suited to music & film lovers.

Wreck This Journal - Wreck This Journal is a fantastic book for those creative people out there, its a book full of ideas on how to destroy it in many unique ways. 

Hope you enjoyed reading & found some useful gift ideas.
