Autumn joy! 🍃🍂🍁 I love Autumn for all the gorgeous colours and cosy days but also for the time I spend planning for the year ahead. Goal setting and planning in all areas of my life. 🍁🍂🍃 A great time to get planning before the festive season planning and creating starts! 🍃🍂🍁 Have a beautiful day. xo

Leaf printing is one of my favourite Autumn crafts. I love how Rudi decided to turn her prints into trees! 🍁🍃🍂 We printed on brown parcel paper to use for some gift wrapping! xo

The tree outside my house makes me so happy every morning. Have the best day. xo 🍂🍃🍁

Good Morning! Today I was invited by my lovely friend @alternativeageing to share a morning image for #worldhomelessday, which is today. 🍁🍃🍂 Homelessness has increased by 169% in England alone since 2010 and it is very clear that so many people are suffering here in London. Something that breaks my heart. Everyone, everywhere deserves a roof over their head and safe space to live. 🍃🍁🍂 Please join me in sharing a morning selfie (or morning table!) and #wakeuptohomelessness for the brilliant homeless charity @stmungos. 🍃🍁🍂 You can also text WUTH18 £5 to 70070 to donate to @stmungos and help rebuild lives. 🍁🍃🍂

We are loving using our Color Collector’s Handbook this Autumn. 💛 I could talk about colours all day long, so I love to share this love with my children. The book is by @leahmartharosenberg and was shared with us by the ever inspiring @posyandpetal. xxx

Happy new week! Fill it with happy little moments like this. 🍂🍁🍃

Happy Weekend! How adorable is my new terrarium from my sweet friends @wanderforawhile, @onepurlrow and @hellopartyinsta? It is living with my tiny one that @earlyhoursltd gave me. 🌿🌿🌿

My beautiful birthday flowers from my lovely husband. Thank you @thefreshflowercompany for knowing what I love! 💕

Hello there 42! Love that on the morning of my birthday we walked past this balloon arch. 🎈 🎈 🎈

Cosy days definitely call for lots of making. I need my hand to heal fast! This gorgeous basket of yarn in the most wonderful colours belongs to @abbymonroe. Abby is a super talented maker and she is now running workshops. Pop over and take a look at her gallery and website. xo 🍁🍃🍂

Instagram is a great way to promote what you offer and build a community around you and your work, whether that's a personal interest or for business.

Over the past couple of years I've grown my following by tens of thousands.

Not with any tricks – just by finding time in the daily routine to consistently create and share relevant, beautiful images.

Now I'm sharing what I've learnt so you can apply the same approach!

In this workshop I will help you improve your photography and gain skills that will help you grow your following.

AN INSPIRING workshop

If you're not a natural with a camera it can be hard to get going on Instagram, Pinterest and other places that rely on beautiful images.

It can be so demoralising seeing those around you getting thousands of likes on their images and you're left thinking:

"Why don't I get the same reaction to my Instagram posts as those around me?"

On this course you'll learn practical ways to shoot, plan and share your work while developing your own personal style.

Learn how to create beautiful images that your followers will love, not just like

Learning with others is a joy. The Makelight community is welcoming and supportive. No matter your ability, you'll feel safe and encouraged to share those slightly imperfect photos in private.

We've learnt that feedback really helps, so Emily will reply to questions and provide feedback on the images you post in our private Facebook group. You'll also get support from our small Makelight team if you're having any trouble.
