BlogCrush Week 61 – 13th April 2018
Hello and welcome to BlogCrush Week 61. I am sat typing this on Sunday Night because I will be away on holiday for the next few days so I’m trying to be organised (for once in my life! Haha).
About BlogCrush
BlogCrush is a linky party which means it’s a place for bloggers to advertise their work and reach new readers. At the bottom of this post, you will find a collection of thumbnail photos and each photo will take you to a different blogger’s post.
– If you’re a blogger, add 2 posts (yours AND someone else’s) by clicking on the blue “Add your link” button near the bottom of this post
– If you’re just here to read some fab blogs then keep scrolling and you’ll find the thumbnail links below
For any bloggers who haven’t joined a linky before, check out my beginner’s linky guide which will tell you everything you need to know!
This week’s hosts are:
- Lucy (Lucy At Home) – @lucy_at_home
- Alice (Letters To My Daughter) – @L2MyDaughter
BlogCrush is a very unique linky, though, because we don’t just share our own posts – we also ask each blogger to link up a post that they’ve enjoyed by someone else.
So you might be here because a fellow blogger has added your post.
That means they really liked it and they wanted to give it some extra exposure. You are under no obligation to do anything, but you have earned the coveted “I was featured on blogcrush” badge. If you’d like to display this on your blog, simply copy the code from the text box below and paste it into the HTML / text section of your blog!
All posts with a pinnable image will be added to the Blogcrush Pinterest Board, and the host’s blogcrushes will be added to the Best of Blogcrush board! We’d love you to follow those boards and the hosts too 🙂

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
So that’s a minimum of 4 posts.

Blogcrush Week 61
Featured Posts
Like most linkies, both hosts get to choose a favourite post from the previous link-up – a featured blogger. Here at BlogCrush, we believe these featured posts should get some extra attention so we add them back into the linky for you as our Host BlogCrush posts. This means you get lots of extra views, shares & comments from our lovely linkers.
Wendy and I were hosting last week so we’ve chosen the featured posts for BlogCrush Week 61:
Wendy’s Blogcrush post is TBC
Lucy’s Blogcrush post is Practical Gifts for Mothers Day by Magical Mama Blog
Here in the UK, Mothers Day has been and gone, but this list of practical Mothers Day gifts was just too good not to share. I love being able to give thoughtful gifts to people, and the items listed here are useful as well as lovely.
Congratulations to you both! Please collect your “I’ve been featured” badges from the top of the page because you are featured bloggers on BlogCrush Week 61!
Host Post
This week I am linking up my latest Instagram Round-Up – a collection of my most popular photos and personal favourites from the last 4 months.
I have found a real love of photography through doing my blog and Instagram is easily my favourite social media platform now. But I don’t have a posh camera – just my smart phone – so I’ve used this post to share my top tips for camera phone photography too!
Thanks for linking up with us again at BlogCrush and I hope you all have a lovely weekend.
Thanks for hosting, this week I’ve added Gluten Free Alchemist as my blog crush, she’s had a horrific year so far but she’s so lovely and keeps writing and baking despite everything life throws at her x
Awwww…. Thank you lovely! I’m truly touched x
Lucy, thank you for hosting. I’m looking forward to checking out lots more links on my next break. Hope lots of people are interested in my something-different-this-week post about Intermittent Fasting. AND in my BC about a place in Yorkshire.
What a lovely idea for a linky and thank you to the amazing Kate on Thin Ice for thinking of me x
