I hope you weekend was great – I have lots of news to report today!  

Firstly June has come to an end – can you believe we are half way into the year already.  That means I have successfully taken a photo everyday for 6 months for the photo a day challenge!  I really started out thinking I would just do January and that would be it, but this photo a day challenge has become such an important part of each and every day.  I really does make me stop and look around for what I can photograph for the days topic – take notice of things I would normally not put such importance on – see if I can make something ever so simple like a door look exciting.  So what did I get up to this month – here are my photos for June which I share via instagram …

In June I also took part in Holly Beckers Blogging Your Way 2.0 course – another fabulous month were I have picked up lots of wonderful tips that I am hoping will help me to prioritise my creative self and also give me new tools for when creating blog layouts.  

The other amazing thing about both the photo a day challenge and the BYW course are the connections I continue to make through this amazing online community – the support from fellow bloggers, photographers and instagramers is just amazing.  Feeling very blessed to be part of it all.

And finally we have a winner of the ruffle tablecloth!  Thank you to Sura from Red Plum Linen for offering to giveaway one of these gorgeous items – I do hope you have all been to visit her website and also said hi on her Facebook page.
