I got a much need makeover!

Well it’s that time of year again. Time to make those New Year’s resolutions. Now, I’m not typically a resolution girl. I’ve never made one, nor broken one. But this year I knew my website needed a new look. She was feeling a bit like the plain Jane, girl next door. Lots of potential, but it just needed a bit of tweaking. So I took advantage of my husband during a moment of weakness and got him to implement some changes that I’d been hoping to make but didn’t have the know-how to do myself.

The basic plan was to have a weathered wood background on all the pages, to give the reader a little more eye candy on each page. But after trying a few different backgrounds, and not liking a lot of things about them, our direction changed toward a blackboard background & chalk font look. It took my husband an entire day’s work, but he did it. And it looks fantastic, if I do say so myself.

The second change I made was to my logo. We added the chalk font for the words, and added the really cool vintage-y gold frame, which I’m IN LOVE with!

Hope you like it!
