OMG WE'RE GOING TO DISNEYLAND!

Ok...so I might be 23 years of age but I cannot contain my excitement right now because in April we are going to Disneyland Paris!!


Disneyland's target market might be children and not young couples but I'm going on this holiday for more reasons than just to hang out with Mickey and his friends. 

My anxiety has held me back from so much so far through my life, especially with new experiences and travelling abroad. I have been out of the UK twice (to Spain) but I was young and I don't really remember the experience. My negative thinking and anxieties made the thought of travelling on a plane to a country where English might not be the language and where I would have no idea where anything was TERRIFIED me (especially now I'm a "grown-up" lol!). I became far too settled within my home comforts and was content only visiting Cornwall for our annual holiday. All I could think of was the negatives - typical me. 

I'm not entirely sure what has happened but something has changed towards the end of 2015 and I feel like I'm really starting to show my anxiety who's boss. I'm feeling the most positive I've ever felt and I don't want to be held back anymore. I want to experience new experiences and push myself out of my comfort zone.

Booking a holiday abroad might not be a big deal for some but I'm proud of myself for finally stepping out of my comfort zone and I cannot wait to visit a new country to make new memories. 

I have no idea what to expect from Disneyland Paris (other than what I've seen on the website and from friends pictures) so I would love it if you could leave your experiences and links to blog posts in the comments! 

Let the countdown commence!!! :D :D :D

D.I.Y Phone Case

When shopping in Paperchase a while ago I saw a phone case but I was begrudged to pay £12 for it. When at the till, I saw some stickers which were the same design as the pattern on the case... It was then that I had this simple but bright idea! 

For £1.50 I bought the stickers and later went on eBay and purchased a clear iPhone case for a couple of quid. 

From there it was simple, stick the stickers onto the case in any order, put case onto phone and VOILA!


My very own, one of a kind, phone case made for less than a fiver! 

Paperchase sell so many different stickers, the possibilities are endless! I'm amazed at how well they last too! So far, none have come unstuck and I'm the sort of person who will drop her phone at any given moment! 

I also made a Christmas case and I LOVE IT!! 


What do you guys think? Let me know in the comments below!
