It’s time for fresh beginnings as the new year has started and the new year’s goals, to do’s, and lists have been made. I love towards the middle of January where I finally get out of my Christmas holiday blues funk and give myself the kicking it needs to get motivated. I am hope this year is a more simplified year than last year. I am even simplfying the house as there seems to be stuff everywhere all the time. My goal is to have every cupboard and corner organized before February that includes the loft and the garage. I know big targets to hit but the goals are written down now I need to aim for them.
I am enjoying the #lifecloseup instagram community so much. It’s amazing how many new instagrammers are joining in and I hope it long continues to grow. For those that haven’t heard the wonderful news I started a little instagram hashtag to join in with all your zoomed in photos of life’s everyday moments. It can be flowers, interiors, food, family, babies, pretty little things, travel etc. Anything is welcomed as long as it is zoomed in and focused on. I created this little community to share my love for amazing instagrammers and encourage more people to stop to enjoy life’s little details.

This week I have shared assortments zoomed in captures from my new styled office shelves to healthy smoothies for a healthier me and of course those kiddo moments I love to capture so much. I always throw in an outfit or two for a little style sharing too. That’s what I love so much about instagram you can share so many various aspects of life and what we get up to everyday. What’s your favorite thing about instagram?

Gorgeous photos. I love a painted pregnant belly 🙂 #sharewithme
Me too it was such a clever idea. Loved it. Great photo too from Bex.
What a great idea. I have got more into Instagram lately and will have to remember to join in.
Oh yes please do I am constantly trying to get more involved with it as to still new. Be great to have you join in too.
Ooooo some lovely photos there both from you and others #sharewithme x
Thanks Louise. It’s such a fun little community and I adore Instagram for that.
What a beautiful Instagram community you have there & your personal feed is stunning. I’m loving Instagram & working on improving my photos & following. It’s such a fun network! #sharewithme x
Oh thank you so much. Sometimes I get discouraged that some are grainy and blurry as most are just from my phone but trying to be better with bringing out my big camera now.
Some beautiful close ups there, from both you and the other instagrammers. I didn’t know you’d started your own hashtag community, I’ll try and get joined in sometime this week.
Oh yes only a few weeks ago babes. I love ig so much just wanted a place for all those zoomed in captures where we can all slow down and focus on details of life together.
Oh how lovely – I love the pregnancy painting #sharewithme
Oh me too. Such a great idea isn’t it?
I love this idea. I’ll be sure to join in! x
Oh yes I love your feed and captures always so trendy and chic.
Love the photos.
Thank you. It’s a fun community to make us all slow down and focus on life’s little details.
Love these photos, I have recently been linking up on Instagram and love seeing all of the amazing pictures that others link too. #sharewithme
It’s a fun community isn’t it? So many great feeds joining in now too. Love it.
lovely pictures. I love the nature shot with the logs – they’re some of my favourites
Oh yes me too. Amazing aren’t they?
There are some beautiful shots there, both from you and others. I need to work on Instagram a bit more I think. I love it but I need to get more choosy about what I share and start developing my own style.
I really worked on it last year trying to find what I like and treat it more like a gallery of the things I am passionate about instead of just snapping and sharing randomly. I adore it now.
Lovely photos from you and others in the group! I need to be better on Instragram in 2016 as I’m terrible about sharing anything.
Oh yes please join in great place to find new feeds and get your feed going too.
All such lovely instagram photos. I love looking through photos like this. I might just have to join in this year! #Sharewithme
Oh yes please do it only takes a second to hashtag #lifecloseup and that’s all you have to do. I do the rest. You can stop by the hashtag any time to see others joining in and some new great feeds.
Such beautiful photos! I especially love the one with the little cat shoes – very cool! 🙂 #sharewithme
Oh thank you. Glad you like it. If you like instagram hope you will join my hashtag community for some fun zoomed in captures. 🙂
Wow – some amazing photos from everyone there! I always notice how lovely yours are! I really need to start working more on Instagram as I am pretty rubbish at it. #Sharewithme
I think it’s easier if you just decide what you want your ig style to be. Pick four things you are passionate about and then follow those that are similar passions and join communities and hashtags that have the same taste. Then it really goes from there. For me I always do outfits, home, food and kids and then use my photo style of light bright and airy as much as possible in those captures so it all ties together. Play around and see what suits you. You can see I have changed mine a few times lol
Beautiful photos, I keep forgetting to join in! #sharewithme
That’s ok lovely we are always here to go back a day or two and join in. Obviously ig hides them if you go too far back. But you can go back and hashtag a day or two I will always find them. Lol
Love those photos, especially Becky’s, always makes me smile 🙂 I keep forgetting to use your hashtag, will get better! I’m trying to really simplify our house as we have stuff everywhere, I have already filled 8 bin bags or various things to throw out or give away, I am determined to have an organised home this year!
Me too. I am sick of closets overflowing and stuff everywhere all the time. I am just getting rid of it all. I have eBay piles everywhere it’s going on once then charity and friends sick of looking at it all. Lol cleaner always feels better doesn’t it.
I am finally getting back into using instagram, although my pics will never be anything too amazing as I only use my phone camera #sharewithme
Oh you can still take great pics all my Instagram is 99% my phone I don’t have a camera with wifi so it’s easier to take with my phone and upload. Then waiting to download to laptop and sending back to phone to upload. Who has time for all that. Hahaha
Such lovely captures Jenny, I must remember to put the hashtag on my pics. Honestly, my memory is terrible at the minute! xx
You can a beautiful excuse will let you off hunny. When we meeting for that coffee darling. Let’s get it in the diary!
Some gorgeous pics! Your kids always seem to be smiling 🙂
#sharewithme
They also are always blurry because they never ever sit still for me so frustrating but yes they are very giggly little kiddos tho I can’t complain.
Lovely pictures! I want to sort out all my cupboards too. But I haven’t written it down so I’m not obligated! (& it won’t happen!) #sharewithme
Hahah that was me last year and the piles and closets got fuller and fuller. I am determined this year it to all be clear.
I’m popping over Instagram now to look! x
Oh yes please do would love you to join in. The more the merrier.
Love this series of yours. The images are fantastic, I get to “meet” new people, and the message is truly endearing. Looking at #lifecloseup is something that we should really take the time to do more often. Thanks for the reminder, Jenny and for hosting us on #sharewithme this week!
Oh thanks Maria so much. Yes as a busy lady I forget to stop and focus on life’s little details so I started it to get others together but also help me focus more.
First time linking up with you and i’m glad I found you! Such gorgeous photos. Looks like a really good series.
Oh thank you Emma so glad you found me and joining in. I look forward to it. Hope you enjoy and to see you again soon.
Lovely photos! I think Instagram is definitely one of my favourites because I can’t help but take pictures of everything…especially now I’m a mum!#ShareWithMe
Oh yes exactly. I am constantly capturing every little thing I see and I only share half of it. My phone is always yelling at me that it has no memory left.
This is a great idea Jenny – I have joined in this week and hope to continue #sharewithme
Oh thank you, yes I saw it’s so lovely everyone joining together to share life’s little details such a fun community.
You’ve picked some lovely photos there. I espceially love the black and white ones.
Oh thank you hunny it’s so hard to pick and make sure everyone gets a spotlight in the roundup too. I truly love instagram and this community is coming along nicely. 🙂
Always looking for lovely new instagrammers to follow and engage with. Some beautiful images you’ve selected. The handprinted scan is just well Wow! and I love your kids in pjs pic. Ill try to remember to use the hashtag whenever Im doing a closeup.
Joining you from #sharewithme link
It’s such a fun and great community to be apart of. Glad you like it and would love you to join in whenever you can. Thank you.
Ah, lovely goals to have for 2016 – I’m all for a simplified life. I, too, have felt overwhelmed at times with so much going on, so much stuff everywhere and an endless to-do-list, so I think trying to take a good look at your life and simplifying and de-cluttering things and thoughts can only be a good thing! I have similar plans for this year, so fingers crossed we both manage to achieve our goals! x #ShareWithMe
Oh yes we will have to keep each other motivated to stay on task with a simplified plan ahead of us both.
I love this new series you created. There is some great talent out there.
Oh yes I am totally obsessed with some ig feeds I am not going to lie. Beautiful, inspiring and motivational life captures all telling a different story. Glad you like it hun.
