Make over x2



So a couple of weeks ago (it could be less but my memory isn't the best) I decided to give my beloved Small & Blonde another makeover.

Some of you may remember me giving my little blog a make over before - if not you can read about it here - but this time I decided to take it a little further.

After spending the evening looking around at other blogs and their designs - and noting slightly green eyed just how gorgeous they all looked - I decided that I wanted to find a template created by someone to use for myself.

I am by no means any good with designs or anything computer related - trying to edit the simplest of HTML code sends my brain into a fuzz - so using a design created by someone else seemed the best way forward. However, as this would be the first time I've used a pre-made design, I didn't want to spend too much money.

After shopping around for a few hours, I stumbled across some designs on Etsy. Compared to  most layouts that I came across, which were around the £30 mark, this was an absolute bargain at £6!

If you like my design, it's from the Etsy shop Sweet Electric Design, which you can find by clicking here . There's around six designs available, all of which have a simple layout and are lovely. It took me ages to finally settle on the one I have now (the pink swayed it!).

I'd love to hear some feedback on the new layout of my blog, or if anyone has any hints or tips for finding lovely blog designs please let me know!

  2. I really like the simplicity of this design, and so reasonably priced too. :)

    I'm in the very fortunate situation in that I started out on the web coding websites and so I use my knowledge to design my own themes.
