⭐ AUGUST GIVEAWAY ⭐

This month's giveaway is with the Amazing Lauren Dilworth she is giving away this gorgeous ring in the second pic

Here's how it works:
✴️Follow both woman_up_ashford and Lauren Dilworth
✴️like this post
✴️Tag your friends (each tag is an entry)
One winner picked, postage covered by the winner.

Here's what Lauren has to say:
If you’ve ever wondered about the hands and heart behind my work, here is a little glimpse into my world!
For the last four years, I’ve been entirely self-taught, following a deep passion inspired by the magic of nature and mythological goddesses. My absolute happy place is creating in my workshop, or wandering through the woods on a foggy, windy day. I am endlessly in love with animals, autumn, Halloween, and all things whimsical!
Away from the workshop, my life is full and fast-paced! I’m 44, a proud mum to two adult kids, and a massive lover of motorbikes. My home is beautifully chaotic with three cats and a dog. When I’m not riding or creating, you can find me baking up a storm to feed my family, dancing, practicing yoga, or diving into something completely new. I live by a simple motto: Tomorrow isn’t promised to anyone, so be kind and live in the moment. 🥰

Giveaway is not sponsored, endorsed, or administered by Instagram or Facebook

A great first book club!!
We talked about the book, we talked about the craziness of social media and what it's really like to be a woman! We just talked and laughed and connected, I certainly had the best time and I'm looking forward to next month.
Book to be announced soon!

Thanks Caroline
