Blog Makeover

It seems I’m craving a lot of makeovers lately. Not only do I want one for myself but it was time to give my blog one too. I like to do it at least once a year, and while last year it was a little extreme (goodbye old blog), this year it’s was just a matter of aesthetics.

As with most things, it’s a work in progress and there are a few kinks I need to work out. The new design was supposed to part of a more expanded web presence but there’s still a lot of work to be done before it’s complete. However, knowing I had a new design just waiting made me look at my old blog design with a little distaste. So, I’m just launching the blog component for now and will slowly add the additions over time.

I do hope you like it and if you experience any funky stuff, please let me know in the comments. I am aware of most of the kinks but haven’t had a chance to preview this on a PC and on the dreaded Internet Explorer! ;)

To celebrate the new look around here, I’m offering my blog readers a shop discount. If you fancy yourself some modernemotive goods, simply enter “newblog2011” in the coupon code field when you check out on Etsy for 20% off. Offer is valid until Tuesday, February 15th, noon EST.

Happy Friday folks!

Header Facelift

Thank you for all your feedback yesterday on my icon. It is truly appreciated and I was thrilled to see the comments left fell inline with what emotions/feelings I hoped it would evoke.

The incorporation of the icon has already begun. Check out the new blog header.

New Blog Header

I wanted to stay true to the simplicity of my blog layout so the new update is nothing major, but I think it works.

Do you?
