Hello there! This is my new look! What do you think??
I'm so excited about this blog design. I'm head over heels in love with it. It's the honeymoon phase...where I'm clicking to my own blog just to marvel over how pretty it is.
Okay, I'll stop now.
For the last few months, I've thought, "I should do a new design. I know nothing about design. Never mind that."
Then, it got to where I wasn't excited about blogging because I didn't like what I was looking at everyday. But I kept going because I so love talking to all of you.
Finally, on Friday night, Scott was out fishing and I was sunburnt on the couch, watching re-runs (or something equally exciting). I thought, "Dang it. This has got to change." In particular, the 3 column design was driving me crazy. I wanted more space. I felt claustrophobic and you all know I really don't like clutter.
So I emailed Angi and asked her if she could re-do my blog design.
Dealing with a blog re-design can be stressful, especially if you have no idea what you're doing. Luckily, I have many blog friends who are awesome at design. I knew Angi, in particular, probably wouldn't mind my millions of questions and specific requests.
That was Friday night.
Today is Monday.
It's done and you are looking at it.
I think you should hire her if you're in the market for a blog design. Not only was it quick and painless, but she truly loves design. Check out her shop. This girl knows what she's doing! Thank you Angi!
*Also, if I could direct you to the header (don't you love it?), there's Twitter, Pinterest, Instagram, and Bloglovin' buttons. Follow me if you'd like!
**Oh, does anyone want to continue the button swap for July or begin a button swap?
Looove it! So cute! And, I think it's much more you. :)
ReplyDeleteAw thanks for the shout out!! I'm super happy you love it, clicking to your own blog to ogle your own design is a good sign. ;)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you went ahead and announced the new design...guess what I'm linking to in my blog post tomorrow?? ;)
I love it!! It's so fresh and cute!
ReplyDeleteWow, this is a huge change!! I know for sure when I get a new design someday, I want Angi to do it. I love words--but anything to do with codes and designing just is not my thing!
ReplyDeleteYay!! I like the new look!
ReplyDeleteIt looks awesome! I am in desperate need of a new look. I will email Angi too, thanks!
ReplyDeleteLove!!! I'm getting the itch for a new one too...
ReplyDeleteLove the color scheme. Very cute
ReplyDeleteIt looks so good! I've been wanting a new look, too...or a whole new blog. I'm definitely bored with mine.
ReplyDeleteI love the design, it's so fresh and clean!
ReplyDeleteThis looks GREAT! I really love it, Kristin.
ReplyDeleteLove it!!
ReplyDeleteLove the new design! I totally want to keep up the button swap! :)
ReplyDeleteSeriously loving this design. I agree with you about a three column design, but this is just so perfect! The colors and fonts are great. Enjoy it!
ReplyDeleteI love it!!! Angi did a very good job! Now all you need to do is transfer it to wordpress ;)
ReplyDeletei love it!
ReplyDeleteAngi did such a good job. She's pretty awesome. I need some of her design skills to rub off on me.
ReplyDeleteIt's soooooooo gorgeous! I love it!
ReplyDeleteI love it!!! It's so bright and happy! New state, new start... This just looks more like YOU (happy out-of-Alaska-and-basking-in-the-sun you!)
ReplyDeleteI like the new design!! I'll button swap with you.
