This design is awesome! I really, really like it. I would definitely add a picture of you and a few sentences that link to an About Me page to engage your readers! I always like to know who I'm getting advice from as soon as I land on a page! Otherwise looks great!

Hi there! I'm not sure if I am supposed to start a new thread or not, so I'll just start here I would love help with figuring out how to get rid of bubbles/dots at the top of my blog and put something more personal, but when I try to upload a header it doesn't end up right...it's either tiled all over the blog or just one huge picture. What do you think? Any advice is welcome www.adventuresofgoldilox.com

goldilox Usually we start a new thread so it is easier for you to find responses to your question. You could put a family picture or an icon that represents your family. My blog has a paper airplane as its icon. (www.jdaniel4smom.com) You can create a header in picmonkey and then upload it. When you do that you can control where the picture show sup.

kate0creativehouse - Very minimalistic and clean. I do like it. I also like the header... it's very unique and carefully put together... kinda like a puzzle. The only issue is that I see no reason why you've got the continuous scrolling for posts when you've got an actual footer in place. What happens when I scroll to the footer, all of a sudden, more posts appear and I can't get to your tags... so it makes no point to either have the continuous scrolling or your footer widgets. Also, be careful with font sizes. You've got some small ones in your sidebar and the date of your post.

www.creativehouseblog.comWelcome! And nice job on your blog! I agree with the other ladies who gave suggestions--I would love to see a picture and more about you in a sidebar widget! The only other thing I'd suggest--and this is just a nit-picky symmetrical thing--is that your menu isn't symmetrical. It may just be me, but I notice the "About Creative House" on the left and then there are 2 things on the right--"Arts & Crafts" and "Deals." And then on the bottom you have text on the left and icons on the right. Is there a way to make this symmetrical? Like move the "Creative House Shop" up to the top and split your social icons so they're on both the left and ride side of your logo? I hope that make sense...and really it's probably just me being ridiculous. Also, I'd love to see more color throughout the blog since it's a crafty blog. Oh my gosh, I just realized after looking at it several times that your header is confetti, right? I kept thinking it was pennies or coins. Is there a way to make your confetti more colorful? And then use one of those colors as header and title text or hover color throughout? That would really make things pop. I do see you have a few different colors for links and menu buttons and hover text--I'd suggest sticking to 1 or 2 of your favorite and making them more prominent. All that said, if you don't change a thing, it still looks great! :-)
