Blog Watch 25/08/2013

I've decided to make blogwatch a biweekly feature. This way I get to explore more blogs and read up on my fav blogs some more. If you have a fun feature that you'd like to share, don't forget to leave a link in the comments so I can check it out :)

Michelle from Creature Type always wows me with her Artwork, but I'm particularly smitten with these sunbathing vampires. I think they have fabulous hair and swimsuits.

Lauren from Old Red Boots is making me jealous of her wardrobe as usual. I think this pastel cat outfit is too kawaii not to share.

Marielle from Magical Daydream is making me cry with her beautiful crane project. Seriously, go check this out. Marielle shares love and positivity by giving 1000 strangers a crane that she's hand crafted from colourful paper.

Jessa from Caked Vintage is back! And she has some awesome hair and outfits to show us.

Shell from Kitty and Buck shows us a way to both protect our books, and make them look pretty at the same time.

Violet from Blythe Ponytail Parades shares some beautiful pictures of Blythe dolls from the Blythe Indy Meetup. 

Jen from Made in Minch shows us how to spruce up any cake with a DIY mini washi tape bunting.

Advertise on PonyChops in September

I can't believe it's almost September already! Summer seems to be flying by far too quickly for my liking. August has been a fantastic month for PonyChops, and I hope September will be just as successful. I have some tutorial and DIY plans for late September/early October. I'm also going to be documenting my move to London and start of my Shoe Design course at London College of Fashion.


If you'd like to host a giveaway on PonyChops or send me a product to review email me at ponychopsshop@gmail.com

If you need any help with your advert design pop me an email and I'll see what I can do to help.

Here are my stats:

25000+ pageviews this month
15000+ Tumblr followers
10000+ followers on other social media

Nice to meet you. I am a collector of vintage, floral, cameras, and knickknacks. I am a beginner in the world of sewing and crafts. I hope to sell handmade odds and ends in my very own shop one day. Most of the time, I can be found with Dominick, who is my best friend, love dove, and side kick.

I am a vintage shop owner, blogger, photography enthusiast, and self taught graphic designer living in California below the beautiful Yosemite Valley.  I am a bit of a wildflower with a passion for discovery and a love of adventure no matter how big or how small.   I grew up on a thousand acre ranch I have lovingly titled The Thousand Acre Woods.  I still reside there with my family, my husband Christopher Robin, and our two dogs and three cats.  My blog follows me as I navigate through this wonderful journey as a business owner, writer, and designer.

Hi, I'm Sammy and I have a mass of curly hair :)

I am currently starting a new chapter of my life as a fashion and textiles student on the hills of Wiltshire, England. I am living with my soon to be husband, Ben where I am starting to get to grips with student life. I am originally from a sleepy seaside town in Somerset where I was living in my little comfort zone but decided I wanted to get my butt in gear and start my dream of getting in the textile industry. I blog over at The Cookie Button where you will usually find me rambling on about my day to day life and pursuing my hobby - crafting.
