Now that was a crazy-difficult decision, wasn’t it!!!
So let’s get to the Results. These Results are in no particular order. So how does this work? Everyone had the chance to vote for their favourites on my blog and on my IG. The votes on my blog were counted by Crowdsignal, then I added them to the likes on my IG for each entry. The entries with the highest votes/likes won one of 17 prizes. Oh yes, the 17 prizes were randomly drawn too!
