The last few weeks have been very busy and sadly distracted me from pottering on my blog.
I signed up to do two online courses. One on how to use Photoshop with Nicole's Classes, and the other a blogging course- Decor8-Blog My way- Intention & Style.
This blog was always a guinea pig design….I needed to start somewhere and learn the basics. And now, after six months of playing, Ive decided I enjoy blogging and I want to learn more and recreate my blog to represent me better.
Each week we are given homework/tasks to improve our blog. We pair up with a partner and critique each others blog. From that feedback we need to make some changes or improvements.
I have added LinkWithin which hopefully will help you find other posts that may be of interest. Very excited about finding that….the things we learn!
Please be patient whilst I change over the template design, and iron out any little problems I might discover along the way. It may take me a few days (or more) to get it all sorted and back to normal and hopefully, easy to read and navigate.
And once Im finished I would love some feedback…
Until then…… I best get busy! Kx
Hi Kylie, I'm having my blog redesigned at the moment as well, which seems to be taking forever..not an easy process. Look forward to seeing how your blog evolves with all the exciting changes.
ReplyDeleteHi Catherine…am keen to hear more… Have you someone re-designing it for you or doing it yourself? This Decor8 ecourse has me all inspired but tragically my IT skills are….hmmmm…quite bad! Wld love any recommendations and can't wait to see your 'new look'!!! Kx
DeleteYes Kylie, I have a Graphic Designer redesigning my blog. I've had it for about three years and had no IT skills either in the beginning so designed it as I went along. I reached a point quite a few months ago where I felt it was time to have it designed properly by a professional. I've found a wonderful girl who is based in the UK and reasonably priced. Let me know if you're interested and I can send you her details. I'll definitely have my 'new look' up before Christmas, ready to start 2014 fresh. x
ReplyDeleteI need to refresh mine but Im not great with 'change' plus Im not very tech savvy so will probably need someone to help me!
ReplyDeleteThks Anastasia….Im definitely not IT savvy…..so will needs lots of help! But hoping a fresh face might distract from any IT glitches ;-))) x
DeleteHow exciting! Blog redesign is so much fun. I've done a few blog redesigns for some people and it's not too bad, just takes some practice... my advice is to take lots of notes as you go along so you can remember how to navigate and how to undo something!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see the new look :)
Thks Amber. Fingers crossed it pulls together and looks ok once finished. Love your blog- what gorgeous children….and delicious recipes! x
DeleteJust popping in to wish you a very Merry Christmas Kylie and Happy New Year, enjoy the summer break, catch you next year. Catherine x
ReplyDeleteThanks Catherine….so much! Hope you had a wonderful Christmas with your family. I can imagine a delicious feast was had at your house!!! See you in the new year and may 2014 be filled with many wonderful things for you! Thanks for your blogging support this year xxx
