BlogCrush Week 105 – 15th February 2019
Welcome to BlogCrush Week 105. We have an important announcement…
**BLOG CRUSH IS CLOSING**
Don’t worry – we’re still running this week and next. But then we will be closing the BlogCrush for good. It has been a fabulous 2 years and I’ve felt immensely privileged to be part of such a lovely community of bloggers.
But, difficult as it has been to make this decision, the time has come to retire the linky.
Please can I remind you to subscribe to your favourite linkers so that you don’t lose touch once the linky closes.
About BlogCrush
Blogcrush is a linky and so this post is aimed at bloggers rather than my usual content readers.
A linky is place where bloggers can advertise their work – a list of different bloggers, all in one place. BlogCrush is the best linky around (yes I’m biased!) because we’re a supportive community – we ask our bloggers to add a post of their own AND a post that has been written by somebody else.
If you would like to share one of your posts*, simply click the blue “click here to enter” button. A thumbnail picture will appear on THIS post which is a direct link to the YOUR website.
*Please make sure you read and follow the linky rules (below)
(This beginner’s linky guide is packed full of linky info and tips if you’re still feeling a bit confused!).
The BlogCrush linky is co-hosted by myself, and Kelly from Daydreams of a Mum and here’s a bit of a visual summary to let you know what the BlogCrush linky is all about:
The “I’ve been featured” blog badge
If you’re here because someone CHOSE your post as their BlogCrush…
Congratulations! They must have really appreciated your work. You can collect your (well-earned) blog badge by copying the code from the text box below and pasting it into the HTML / text section of your blog!

The Rules
- Join in with 2 posts:
- 1 post from your blog (personal) – no linkies please
- 1 post from someone else’s blog (your #BlogCrush)
(Please Note: this is a family-friendly website. Whilst we love the range and diversity of the bloggers who link up here, Lucy At Home reserves the right to remove any posts that are deemed inappropriate at her discretion and without warning.)
- When you add your BlogCrush (post written by someone else) to the InLinkz form, put “BC” at the beginning of their title
- Tweet your BlogCrush (& us) to let them know you’ve added them to the linky and share their link (@lucy_at_home and @daydreamer_mum). Please tweet us your own BlogCrush posts too so we can share them for you.
- Comment using the #BlogCrush hashtag on at least these 4 posts:
- 1 post from Host 1 (personal or BC)
- 1 post from Host 2 (personal or BC)
- 2x personal posts from the rest of the link up
So that’s a minimum of 4 posts.

Featured Posts
The BlogCrush hosts showcase the two best bloggers from each week by adding them back into the following week’s linky as “host featured posts”. As per the BlogCrush rules (see above), these two special posts will get lots of extra comments from our linkers.
Here are our choices for BlogCrush Week 105:
Kelly’s BlogCrush is Travelling Solo As A Woman by Kate on Thin Ice
Lucy’s BlogCrush is Sausage Roll With Chutney and Mustard by Glutarama
Lucy’s Own Host Post
My post for BlogCrush Week 105 is Gentle Parenting A Child Who Is Afraid Of The Dark
Being afraid of the dark is really common in kids. You can try the usual tactics (ignore it, throw logic at it, listen, etc) and still not tackle the root issue. So here are 7 tips to help you do just that, and give your kids important skills to take forward.
Thank you for popping by for BlogCrush Week 105. Here are the posts that have been linked up this week:
