Welcome!

Thank you so much for stopping! It took me a while to get the confidence I needed to get started on this blog. What really gave me a boost was winning a blog makeover from a holiday giveaway from Simply Stacie.

I was lucky enough to get hooked up with Jessica of So Stylilized!. It took me a few weeks to even contact her - that's how apprehensive I was, but I am so happy that I did! Sometime on Monday, this blog will have a professional look! I really wanted a clean, simple design that would allow readers to focus on the content rather than becoming distracted. Since I am so very new at blogging and not too tech-savvy, it was great to be able to have her give me step-by-step tips. If you don't want to install the templates yourself, she'll do that, too. Here's a peek at the (perfect!) button she designed for me:
If you would like to get a new button or completely redesign your blog, go HERE right now. Currently, you can get any of these for FREE! According to the site, "We are currently offering our design services for FREE with a tip (of any amount) by the client upon the design being finalized!" You can also view many of the designs that have been already done - there is a huge variety of styles - to fit any preference. Just remember that this is a lot of work to be doing for free, so be sure to tip the designer once your design is finished and write up a nice post telling others about So Stylilized, too!
