BlogCrush Week 52

This is the BlogCrush linky – a truely unique community where bloggers from across the globe come together to share their posts, and the posts they’ve enjoyed by other bloggers. This is BlogCrush Week 52.

– If you’re a blogger, we’d love you to join in and share your work with some other fab creatives.

– If you’re a blog-reader, you can expect to find some of the best blog posts around in the list below. Just keep scrolling to the bottom of this post.

Here, we ask our bloggers to add a post of their own AND a post that they loved by someone else. It means that our link up is packed full of quality posts from lots of different genres, and it’s a great way to gift some extra exposure to the posts that have really grabbed your attention.

If you’re a blogger but you haven’t joined a linky before, check out my beginner’s linky guide which will tell you everything you need to know!

Advance Notice:

NEXT WEEK (16th Feb) is our 1 year anniversary! We’re hosting a special giveaway EXCLUSIVELY for our linkers so don’t forget to pop by, even if you can’t link up that particular week. It’s gonna be GREAT!

This week’s hosts are:

Lucy (Lucy At Home) – @lucy_at_home
Alice (Letter To My Daughter) – @L2MyDaughter

This our “I’ve been featured” blog badge – if one of your posts has been added to the BlogCrush linky by someone else, CONGATULATIONS! They loved it so much, they wanted to share it for you here. That is something to shout about so let everyone know by copying the code from the text box below and pasting it into the HTML / text section of your blog.

We now have a BlogCrush Pinterest Board. Wendy, Alice and myself thought it would be nice to have a board where we can showcase all the fabulous posts that are linked up here each week. We have also created a “best of blogcrush” board where the host’s featured blogcrush posts will get a second pin. Please pop over and give us a Pinterest follow (and obvs we’ll follow you back) –

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)

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 ( @lucy_at_home and @L2MyDaughter )

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

Remember you can always comment on more, though. This is just the minimum. The more effort we put into a linky, the more we all get out of it 🙂

- Add the #BlogCrush badge to the post that you’re linking up from your own blog. You can do this by copying the ~~gobblydygook~~ code in the box below and pasting it into the HTML view of your post.

<a href="https://lucyathome.co.uk" title="Lucy At Home"><img decoding="async" src="https://lucyathome.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/badge.png" alt="Lucy At Home" style="border: none;" /></a>

Featured Posts

As co-hosts we get the lovely job of choosing a post each from the previous linky to be our BlogCrushes. Please note: we only choose your personal posts for this special honour (i.e. not your BC nominations) and they must contain the linky badge.

These two favourites are then added back into the linky the following week as featured posts. Wendy and I were hosting last week so we’ve chosen the featured posts for BlogCrush Week 52:

Wendy’s Blogcrush post is TBC

Lucy’s Blogcrush post is How To Love Yourself And Be Happier by Pam’s Bake and Baby Blog

With Valentines Day just around the corner, let’s show ourselves a bit of love and kindness. This practical post will get you well on your way and is truly inspirational! #LoveYourself

Congratulations, guys! Please collect your “I’ve been featured” badges from the top of the page

Host Post

My post for BlogCrush Week 52 is called Hospital Care Package – Overnight Hospital Stay Gift

I have a close friend who is very poorly at the moment. He’s had lots of invasive tests, tonnes of appointments, and now needs surgery. We can feel so helpless when our loved ones are facing tough times and we wonder what we can do. I decided to put together the ultimate hospital survival pack (and it cost less than £15!) to make those overnight stays a little bit more bearable.

Thank you so much for popping by and joining in with BlogCrush Week 52, either as a linker or as a reader, and I hope to see you again next week.

Love, Lucy x

P.S. Please add the linky badge to your posts as it encourages more people to join in 🙂
