My Top 5 Tips To Start Scrapbooking

 My Top 5 Tips To Start Scrapbooking


Tip #1

Make a Pinterest board! Use this to collaborate ideas, plan out pages, find little doodles or work out what you want to scrapbook about!

Tip #2 

Get materials (newspaper cuttings, images, stickers) from your house! Spend some time rummaging around in drawers, cupboards and boxes finding old photos and sticker that you haven't used.

Tip #3

Pick a topic or theme! Do you want your scrapbook to be a weekly journal, or a travel diary or just a junk journal? Spend some time deciding what you want your scrapbook to be about!

Tip #4

It doesn't have to be perfect! My first page in my scrapbook journal was far from perfect, if anything it was reallyyy ugly, but now 2 scrapbooks later they look a lot better, filled with colour and memories.

Tip #5

Just start! Don't think about it too much (easier said than done, I know) but just pick up a pen and some glue and begin, let the creative process lead you to a final page, and be proud that you begun!

16 Films To Watch Before You Turn 16

  16 Films To Watch Before You Turn 16 1. The Perks of Being A Wallflower (2012) As someone who is currently a teenager, to me, this film perfectly sums up the teenage experience, with some added depression. This beautiful film was introduced to me by a friend and I both hate them and love them for it, so you're welcome and I'm sorry. 2. Dead Poets Society (1989) Again, teenage experience with some added depression and Robin Williams. If you like a bit of comedy with dark academia vibes alongside desire to follow your dreams, then this is the film for you. 3. La La Land (2016) This film is my all-time favourite. It perfectly encapsulates my love for filmmaking as well as being a beautiful movie-musical filled with colour and infinite deeper meanings. I love how it also shows the truth of love and fate. 4. Breakfast Club (1985) This feel good film set in one day is a joyful yet touching film about connection and the teenage experience. Though, on the surface it may seem pointles...

  How To Romanticise Autumn Not a big fan of autumn, but want to still enjoy it? Well here are my top tips from a certified Autumn lover. With the return of Autumn comes for many the return of school life and the boringness that comes with school. 1. Read a book! The more dark academia or spooky the better! Not sure of what books to read well  here are some of my autumn recs!  Not in the mood for those? Well romanticise some more and take a stroll to your local bookshop and look for your next read! 2. Bake! Nothing better than a rainy night, snuggling up beneath your blanket with a slice of warm fresh homemade apple pie in hand. Struggling to find some good recipes?

  How To Romanticise School Schools back in session and you want to be the best in your school, or simply just get better at school. Well I am a GCSE Yr 11 student who so far every past paper I have done has been high 8s and 9s, and the lowest grade I've ever gotten was 55% (it wasn't a good day). Here are my top tips from a certified academic weapon. Study in a Library My best study sessions have been in a crowded library with my books surrounding me. There's something about the cosy yet busy energy of a library that fills me with academic motivation. I prefer to study alone, but you can always study with friends! Make a playlist Personally I have many school playlists, my main study one is Hard Hitting Classical but I also use wordless movie music and jazz in film . However, my festive one is Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker . They set the best mood while not having any distracting lyrics. Make a Pinterest board I like to recreate my pins it makes me feel aesthetic while get...
