Celebrating Violet Daffodils 2nd Birthday!


Hello lovelies! :)
Today is a special day for me as my Blog has turned 2 years old! My Blog is growing up so fast! ;)
I feel very happy in myself for this, as I find as I've got older that finding a hobby and sticking to it is far more difficult than attending Dance classes every Thursday & Saturday, Art class every Saturday or keeping up Piano lessons every Monday like I could do as a kid/teen. How I managed my time back then completely baffles me now. But I have got so passionate about Blogging over the past 2 years that it is always constantly inspiring me, keeping me interested and pushing myself further to try out new ideas for posts, photographs, content, design etc. which I'm hoping to explore in more depth this year. 
Since my Blog name partly comes from my love for my favourite flower, I felt it was only right to take photographs for this post with Daffodils, hopefully a better attempt than last time I did a post like this (here). My Grandad is the one responsible for the blooming of so many gorgeous Daffodils this time of year as he does all the gardening. At the bottom of the garden there is a large section that has tons of them around which ended up being the ideal spot for my photographs for today. And lastly I want to say a big thank you so much for the support I've had on this Blog. I recently hit 180+ followers on here and 100+ on Bloglovin too which is madness and I'm so flattered! I am SO grateful for those of you who take time out of your day to read my posts/comment/follow etc. it really does mean a lot to me, I cannot express that enough. Also I would like to thank you all for your patience too, I know that I haven't posted loads recently but I am hoping to change that in the next few months, spruce up the design of this blog, make some new and exciting changes and include some new material for you all. So keep your eyes peeled!

Have a great day!
<3

Thanks for reading! <3
