DIY Notebooks

-
Hey guys! Happy Sunday :) So, as promised on my insta, here is a post about DIY notebooks! I made these ones since I was getting tired of the old ones, so I gave my current ones a revamp :D And you can too! So without further ado, let's get into it!





1. Find notebooks you can do this with. I used a standard moleskine blue planner, and some colourful duct tape for the first one.

2. Take the tape and scissors, and measure out strips as long as the notebook, and then stick them on.

3. Do this till it's completely covered (or at least as covered as you want it), and boom, your finished product is ready :)

******AN OPTIONAL ADD ON: On my second notebook that I did, I included a quote. To do this:

1. Find a quote you really like.

2. Save it.

3. Drag and drop into a word document.

4. Readjust the size to fit your notebook.

5. Print it.

6. Tape it on.

7. BOOM BA DA BOOM, you're done! :))))

Here are some pics of my final products:





That's it for now :) Hope you guys enjoyed this post, let me know in the comments what you thought! Are you going to/have you tried this? What did you think? And how is your summer? Comment below, and don't forget to check out my insta if you haven't, I've been trying to post pretty regularly on there :)

Have a wonderful rest of day!

Till next time!

    I loved the penguin notebook. Being a fan of animals,I am bound to get round to making my own notebook. Where do you buy the patterned duct tape from?

    PS: FYI, I have uploaded photos of my cookies onto BakingBoutique, in case you were interested to see the ending result.😊😊

Hey hey hey! How are you all? So, it's Sunday! Meaning, I'M BACK :)))) Okay, so I thought I'd do a combination post, since I only got one question haha :D So first for the question from  +Paige Petrovsky  : What made you want to start a blog ? THANKS FOR YOUR QUESTION :))))))  I had always kind of wanted to do something like this, before I started. I loved (and still love) writing, and photography. I had just read Zoella's book, Girl Online, and so decided that it would be super cool to start a blog myself!! And here we are, two years later, still lovin' it :)) Alright. Now, I'm super excited to be doing a tag today!!!! The lovely  Sweet Treats  nominated me for the Mystery Bloggers Award!! A massive thank you to them, I'm honoured!! You should definitely go check out their blog cause it is pretty freaking awesome!! :) Also, the creator of this award is  Okoto Enigma , who is also pretty cool!!

my quarantine thus far as told through tv shows.

  Hello! Long time no see, haha oops. It's been a minute. So today, I wanted to do a mini recap on my fave shows so far since quarantine! I'm sure I'm not alone in watching significantly more netflix since quarantine began lol. However, I wanted to give it a bit of a twist. So without further ado, I give you my quarantine thus far, as told through TV shows. Friends/The Goodwife - March/April/May Okay this is back when quarantine first began. My life consisted of watching Friends, doing schoolwork, procrastinating, doing more schoolwork, watching the Goodwife, and studying for exams. I can't actually remember which one I watched first - I think I watched them together. Luckily by this time there wasn't too much schoolwork left haha. But I watched all of both these shows those 3 months...I was a bit obsessed if you can't tell. But the episodes for friends were only 20ish minutes long! I would 100% recommend both of these shows though, amazing pieces of work.  10/1

Heeey y'all. Sorry I'm late again :/ I always think I'll have time to post on the weekends but I always have too much homework D: I have a little time now though, so I thought I'd try and post :) It's that time of year. It's dreary, dark, wet/snowy (depending on where you live I guess haha), and it seems to be a common theme, to lose inspiration during winter. BUT NO MORE!!! For I have come to you with 7 tips on staying inspired throughout winter!!! SO LEGGO!!! :) 1. Set goals. If you have something to work towards, I think it's much easier to get through these months. But even better, set goals that make you excited to get up in the morning. And write them down!! I'm going to do that right now in fact - and you should too. Scroll down to the comments and put 'em in, we can support each other in our endeavours to reach our full potential :) Okay so for the winter (so from now - January - until, like, March) my
