**Collaborative Post**

As the summer holidays draw to a close, the excitement (and sometimes anxiety) of the new school year begins to build. Whether your child is heading back to primary school, starting secondary school, or even preparing for university, having the right essentials can make all the difference. That is why this year I have teamed up with My-Picture.co.uk to help you pick out some essentials beyond the usual pens, pencils and backpacks that might make the return to school a little more enjoyable and easy going.

Personalised Gift Ideas from MY-PICTURE.co.uk

 **Collaborative Feature**

With Christmas fast approaching I have already started thinking about my Christmas shopping, hoping if I start now I can spread the cost a little with many of us feeling the pinch this year. Christmas is most definitely my favourite time of the year and I love putting lots of thought into getting those I love something I know will make them smile (and that doesn't have to cost the earth either!) and one way I love doing that is buying them personalised gifts. I don't know about you but whenever I receive a gift that has been personalised just for me it feels extra special because I know the person has really thought of me when buying it. 

If you are like me and love giving (and receiving) personalised gifts you should definitely check out My Picture. They have a huge range of personalised gifts from pictures and prints to personalised blankets, and cushions, you can even create your own photobooks or calendars. The range is huge so to help you decide, here are some of our favourite personalised gift ideas from MyPicture.co.uk including two I have recently purchased myself! 

Personalised Blanket

With the colder weather already on its way, this gift is both thoughtful and practical as a gift. The blankets are available in 3 sizes 100cm X 70cm, 150cm X 100cm, or 200cm X 150cm. The blankets are made from polar fleece with an additional layer of super soft plush to make the blankets super soft and snuggly. They are made to strict eco-friendly standards and the colours on the printing are vibrant and bright. The edges of the blanket are finished off with a neat simple stitch which really finishes off the blanket nicely.
