Tumblr Art


Aloha Sprinklerinos,

As a Tumblr addict, I am constantly loosing myself in the abyss of scrolling, gifs, links and info. Ooooh I love it so!

Something I always love to do is check my tags. This means if people have used #SprinkleOfGlitter then it comes up in my search and I can see whatever it is they want to put in front of my eyes. Sometimes it's videos they have made, sometimes funny gifs but sometimes lovely little things they have made me. 

I wanted to showcase some of those masterpieces today. THIS is a link to my Tumblr page and THIS is a link to my Tumblr archive, should you want to track down the talented people who made them.








I absolutely love how creative so many of you are and also rather love how you all make me look so much better than I actually haha, you little minxes!

Not much other than that today, just wanted you to see how much loveliness I get to see on a regular basis. If you have a favourite, let me know in the comments. 

Also, if you are as much of a Tumblr addict as I am, here is a vlog from New York a couple of months back when I was invited to tour Tumblr HQ- It was AMAZING!

THANK YOU SO MUCH TO ALL OF YOU WHO TAKE THE TIME SO MAKE ME SUCH SWEET THINGS. YOU ARE CONSTANTLY APPRECIATED. 

Toodlepip!

Rocket & Zula | Kittens


Aloha Sprinklerinos,

Kittens are the greatest. 

Rocket and Zula are 10 weeks old, brother and sister and frankly, the cutest little things ever to grace the feline world. 

First days are scawee. 

Zzzzzz. 

'What's that!'

Awwweeeee. 

We decided that after a year and four months with no kitty (RIP Mindy), it was time to add to the household and when a cousin's cat had babies, it seemed like the right time.

We've had them six days and so far they are doing great. Zula (the black girl) likes to scamp about, play with toys and sleep on or by your lap. Rocket (the tabby boy) is a little more shy and prefers to fine hidey-holes to sleep or curl up with Zula. They both have crazy moments where they pounce on each other and race around- they're having one as I type!

We plan on making them indoor/outdoor cats but for now, whilst they're getting used to this house, they are living in my office and I'm doing approximately zero hours work and 24 hours kitty watching, it's bliss. 

I'll of course be updating you on them and letting you in on all their adventures, but for now, here are a few snaps of them I took earlier. I tell you, photographing kittens is a lot more challenging than I thought it would be! Sheesh!

If you have any tips for helping kittens settle in or anything you think I should be aware of, let me know. I had kittens as a child, worked in a cattery as a student and have done a fair bit of reading but you can never know too much, yanno?

More snaps coming soon.

Toodlepip!

Amazing Advertisers | June 2014

Aloha Sprinklerinos! 

Once again I would like to express my horror at how quickly another month has passed, someone really needs to have a sit down with Mr. Time and ask him not to be so speedy, it's getting out of hand! Whilst we may recoil in shock at the loss of June, the end of the month does mean we can introduce another lot of Amazing Advertisers which I'm sure shall provide much happiness for us all, I'm giddy with blog love already! 

Source
I’m thrilled to have a gentleman blogger advertising with Sprinkle of Glitter this month, I do love a good man blog! MikkelWeiss.com is a fashion and lifestyle blog written by charmingly handsome Mikkel from Denmark. As well as being a talented, passionate blogger which is consistently shown throughout his posts, Mikkel is also a whizz with the camera, his photography is divine and the quality it provides is superb, I’m as impressed as can be! Let’s all show MikkelWeiss.com some appreciation, it’s well deserved! Ladies, you won’t regret it!

 Beauty Is A Wonderland is a beauty blog written by queen of the floral crowns, Elle. If you’re in need of a review, by golly I’m sure Elle will have it. From perfume to bath bombs, hair extensions to skincare, Elle is reviewing it all! Elle is also a bilingual little blogger, writing her posts in both England and Dutch, which I think is a pretty nifty, thoughtful touch. Elle’s enjoyment of blogging shines through in her posts and I look forward to watching her blog progress in future. If you’re a lover of all things beauty I’d recommend popping over to Beauty Is A Wonderland and saying a little hello.

Ladies, we have another ‘little bit of everything’ blog and it’s definitely a good’un. Amanda is a very talented blogger indeed, not to mention a gorgeous girly too. Amanda Loves is filled with a variety of posts which I have thoroughly enjoyed having a gander through. I’m particularly interested in Amanda’s journey of transforming her brunette locks to brown, something of which I did a while back and I’m intrigued and excited for her final do. If you’re a lover of hauls, outfit posts and make up reviews then Amanda is the gal for you! 

Fabulous Poufs is a funky, artsy blog written by Gaby, a whizz with a pencil and a makeup lover. Gaby’s blog is something a little different from the usual beauty, as well as photographing makeup Gaby designs and draws lookbooks of her favourite makeup bits and bobs and I’m definitely a fan of the creativity. If you’re a mummy-to-be Gaby has also incorporated her 7 month baby bump into her beauty posts, a personal touch which pleases me muchly. I think we should all hop, skip and jump on over to Fabulous Poufs and ‘oooooh’ at Gaby’s creations, they really are fabulous!

Georgia Vanilla is beauty and lifestyle blog written by Georgia, a fellow lover of the pink hair and therefore deserving of blogger brownie points for being fabulous. Georgia’s posts are informative, well written and a pleasure to read. I also love that her personality and honesty is incorporated into each post, I trust what Georgia says and that makes her all the more likeable. If you’re in need of an honest review then Georgia is your gal, from skin care to perfume, she’ll pro and con them all! It’s not easy to describe a perfume, but Georgia seems to have the knack and that’s impressive in itself. Go on, have a gander!

Ooh we have another Wonderland blog, and it’s another good’un! Anna in Wonderland is a lifestyle blog written by American beauty, Anna. Anna writes about anything and everything and I’m a fan of the variety, including her love of history, travel adventures and beauty buys. Anna in Wonderland is a bloomin’ lovely blog for a cosy evening of gallivanting on the adventures of others, learning about history and discovering a handy life trick or two. I’d thoroughly recommend following Anna down the rabbit hole, you won’t regret it! 

Charlotte is both a beauty blogger and Youtuber, not to mention a huge lover of Disney, make up and all things girly, what’s not to love? Charlotte’s blog is the perfect combination of beauty and lifestyle, her posts are always well written, the snaps are super and her love of blogging makes her a very likable gal indeed! This month Charlotte has been a busy bee, she’s shared her recent blogging ventures with us as well as beauty favourites and her weight loss journey. She does it all that Charlotte and there is something for everyone, you’ll be pleased as punch with her dedication to Lil Miss Chickas I can tell ya.

EBVC was a blog that had advertised with Sprinkle of Glitter earlier this year and I was thoroughly impressed with its individuality and quirks, and this month has been no different! Emmy, the writer of EBVC offers her thoughts on university, travel and general life trials and tribulations, it’s a ‘real life’ blog if you like written in a humorous, truthful manner which is an absolute joy to read. If you’re a 20 something year old plodding along in life or just a lover of all things lifey in your blog feed, then EBVC will be the one for you.

The Human Mannequin is written by Sally, a girl after my own heart. A lover of plus size fashion, all things girly and a gallivant in the sunshine. The Human Mannequin is primarily a plus size fashion blog designed to offer outfit inspiration for women of a curvier, larger nature as well as a few lifestyle and beauty posts included also, she can do it all that Sally! Whether plus size or not, we can all appreciate Sally and her many florals, not to mention her beautifully designed blog.

We’ve had our fair share of glorious fashion and beauty blogs this month and Fat Beauty is no exception I’m pleased to report. Written by Lucie, Fat Beauty is all about a love of makeup and skincare with product reviews galore, ranging from high end fancy brands to our trusty bath time love, Lush. If you’re a lover of a good skincare product or two then Lucie is your gal. And if that wasn’t enough Lucie also writes about fashion (we share a mutual love of ASOS which pleases me) and makes Youtube videos as well. I’m certain Lucie, her knowledge of skincare and her personality will tickle your pickle.

Catherine, the beautiful writer of Vintage Frills advertised with Sprinkle of Glitter last month and I fell in love with the elegance of her blog, it’s vintage galore. Catherine is a lifestyle and fashion blogger sharing her love of floaty dresses, home interior and DIY, her posts never fail to impress! As well as offering more vintage charm Catherine also shared a post on being a young mother this month which I thoroughly enjoyed reading, especially as I too became a mummy in my early twenties. Catherine, you have pleased me once more this month and I look forward to future posts. 

Stacie is a long term advertiser with Sprinkle of Glitter and I've always had a soft spot for her blog. Stacie suffers long term health problems and requires both a heart and lung transplant, however this has not hindered her ability to be a  truly inspirational gal and a credit to the blogging community. Her positivity and outlook of life despite her illness is incredible and I'm so pleased she has continued to blog for the last few years. Stacie is a beautiful gal on the inside and out and I hope she continues to blog and inspire us all, if you decide to hop on over to Life Is Worth The Fight I can guarantee you'll be inspired. 

I think we'll all be in agreement that all of the advertisers this month have been jolly well brilliant! I always enjoy having a variety of blogs to share with you each month and I'm happy as Larry with this bunch! Are you a keen bean of all my June lovelies too? 

Toodlepip!
