Policies

Content and Images

Unless otherwise noted, all content and images are mine. Full posts may not be shared without express written consent. But I love when you share! Feel free to share, without altering, one image with proper credit and a link to the original post.

All free printables are for personal use only. What does that mean? Print it for yourself, print it up and gift it to a friend (or heck, everyone in your family!) but don’t sell it, don’t modify it and give it away, and don’t upload it to your own site to offer as a download.

Everyone loves proper credit- if you ever notice something improperly credited, please please shoot me an email and I’ll fix it lightning fast.

Disclosure

I’m Canadian, so I’m not legally bound by FTC Standards for bloggers to disclose when I’m being compensated in any way. BUT I’m all for honesty. Lemon Thistle will always disclose sponsored or affiliate posts and links.

*this means I will never offer paid do follow links*

Lemon Thistle may receive revenue through ads, sponsored posts, or affiliate links to help subsidize the costs of running a blog. Anything I share on Lemon Thistle (paid or not) I truly use and love. Pinky swear.

Comments

Please play nice. I love your comments and feedback SO much, I could never do this without all your support, encouragement, and suggestions. Please know that I reserve the right to remove any comments I find to be hurtful to myself or others.
