Alice in Wonderland (Blogmas day 23)



So I went watching Alice in Wonderland with my friend so I thought I would write what I thought about it to you guys.

We watched it at the octagon theatre in Bolton which is a small room with a little stage at the bottom and everyone is sat around which is good because if your tiny like me if someone really tall sits in front of you, you can still see. But the actual show was really good it had loads of energy and everyone seemed to really enjoy being part of it. There was the same seven people that played every part which I liked because you can see them chance and really get into character. The only thing that I didn't really like about it was the lac of props, the props that were use seemed like they were really cheep hand made objects which was good you could see they put a lot of effort in it, but for the price of the ticket a handmade chicken mask which was made from a paper plate and a few pens just seemed slightly un-professional. However apart from that it was really good and I did enjoy it.

polagram gift ideas. (BLOGMAS DAY 21)


I decided this year too get a few things that would be cute and thoughtful so what's a better idea to get these poloroid pictures printed of us. I used An app called polagram which was super easy to use and they were super cheep too. I also got a chance to write a message on the bottom too.

Then I got these giant paper clips which thought could be used as a photo holder type thing hah. And I love this idea I also got one from my self as I couldn't resist ahha. I have also decided that when I get my room done I am going get a few of these and pin them onto a piece of string above my desk, which picturing that in my head right now is making me want to dance around with excitement.

crystal skin clear skin care (BLOGMAS DAY 20)


So recently I have been using this crystal clear skin care soothing cleansing gel with moisture complex soap free, mouth full haha. So like I said I'v been trying this and seeing what I think, I think I have been using this for 3-4 weeks now and I do actually really like this, which is surprising as I prefer a  cleaner that you don't have to splash water at your face as I really don't like doing that. But I have been and I love this, it makes you face feel super clean and gets into all the pores in your skin and cleans them too. It is moisturising and makes your skin feel super soft, but along with the bodyshop vitamin E aqua sorbet cream I have been using (which they work amazing with each other) it has been reducing and slowly getting rid of my scars on my face and blemishes which is a great thing as its something I'v been finding hard to get rid of. So I love this product there is nothing I can really say that I don't like about it, apart from having to splash my face with water but that's personal preference.

chocolate reindeer treats (BLOGMAS DAY 19)

Christmas is getting so close, I am really exited, who else is? 
You have probably all seen these before but I wanted too have a go with my friends to make these super cute chocolate reindeer lolly's, so here's how I did it.

 So first melt some chocolate in a bowl which is on top of pan of boiling water, this make the chocolate melt but not burn.
 Then get some sticks, I used cocktail sticks as they where all I could find. After that using a spoon i just added  a blob of chocolate into a circle.
Then is time to decorate. Most people use pretzels for the antlers but I don't like them so I used marshmallows instead. For the nose I dipped a white marshmallow in red food colouring, and silver balls for the eyes. Then put them into the fridge and left them for about 30 minutes.

Here they are, not the nest but there cute so I liked them, haha.

MERRY CHRISTMAS

DIY cookie in a jar, Christmas idea (BLOGMAS DAY 18)


This is my favourite thing of all the present I have got everyone for many reasons. I did put a lot of effort into these as I wanted them to be perfect but they are real easy to make, I do think loads about what I get people as I really want them to like it, I love mason jars (blogger instinct) and I just think they are amazing, so lets get started.
First I bought some mason jars.

Then I added 85 grams of flour mixed with 1 tea spoon of baking soda, but your amount will depend on the size of your mason jar, then In patted it down as tight as I could to the bottom of the jar.

After that, I layered 175 grams of chocolate on top but of course you can use how ever much chocolate you wanted to and you could use any type too. One thing you need to do with the chocolate is make sure it is as tight to each other as possible if there is gaps the next layer of sugar will fall through and you wont have the layered affect as much.
Then I 95 grams of light brown sugar, this is also important that you pack this tight as this is what is going to keep all the rest of the ingredients in place. But with this being my first I didn't realise that I needed to layer the chocolate so much but as you can see it fell. Then I added 47 grams of granulated sugar, and that's the ingredients done.
Then to decorate I added some red and white rope and tied it into a cute bow, this makes them more christmas-like but you could use ribbon. I got this from Wilkinson's for £1 which is really cheep.

 Then I made some tags.
Then I added a sticky tag to the back saying what you needed to do to make the cookies and also the ingredent if they wanted to make them again.

And that it, I love them! I was so happy how they turned out, cookie in a jar.

DIY glitter mug, Christmas idea (BLOGMAS DAY 17)

I really like these mugs, you can use them on wine glasses, normal glasses but I wanted to use this mug. I thing these are good to put present in it and nicely present them. But here's how I do it:

So I take a normal white mug.

Then using a paint brush I added a layer of glue, not too thick as when the glitter is on and trying it will slide down the glass, but make sure you make it enough for the glue too stick.


Then I added the glitter.

Then when the first layer of glue is fully dry might take around a hour, but be careful when you check as I have poked one before and made a hole so just leave it a while.

Then there is it when the glue has dried. Sometimes depending on the glitter it may look patchy, if so just add another layer of glue and add more glitter then glue over the top again, I did clean up the handle by the way.

DIY your old christmas tree (BLOGMAS DAY 16)

Hi guys, so I've decided to show you what I have done to my Christmas tree as my was black and purple and I really didn't like it but I didn't want to get another yet because I'm completely changing my room next year.so here is what I did:

So I took my plain black Christmas tree and spray painted it pink as that's the colour of my room at the moment, you could do anything, or if you have a white tree do the ends of the tree the colour of your room which would help it too match your room. 



The colour didn't show up very well of the spray paint (poop blogger award goes to...) so I did some close up's instead. I decided to not fully paint the tree as that might make it clash too much with my room, so I just did the middle and tips.

Then I added some gem baubles and tinsel and a few lights, I know it looks really bad on the photo but I can assure you it looks nowhere near as bad ahah.

Thankyou for taking your time to read this
What are you guys doing for Christmas?

Baby sitting (BLOGMAS DAY 15)



Is it weird to say that I actually love baby sitting...(surely I'm not the only one). I only really babysit my two little cousins, who are bot really funny and cute so spending time with them is really good, and they have the nicest house ever, so I just love taking picture there too. But here is a bit of what we do when I babysit and what I wore. 











And a film as well, we watched guardians of the galaxy.
The girl of the two, Eve, has such a cute little girls princess room I love it! So when there's great lighting and a big mirror its a great chance to be vogue and take a mirror selfi ahahha.


I actually really want this, I think it is such a cute idea. These are actually just cards which she got for her birthday, I got her the bottom one because it looks like her when she was younger ahaha.

looking cute in her ears I got her from disney.

jumper: topshop
joggers: f&f

Manchester Christmas markets (BLOGMAS DAY 14)


So this is also one of them things that me and my family do every year again, go to Manchester's Christmas markets. Here's a bit of what we did.








We had booked a meal at a restaurant called Duttons as we have to book now because last year everywhere was full and we ended up not getting any food. I had garlic bread with cheese for starter and stake and mash, the meal I have everywhere I go, because I love it so why not.
