I'm always thinking about redesigning my blog, in the same way that I'm always thinking of redecorating or rearranging my home. It's kind of a compulsion for me, and I really wish I had gone to school for interior design rather than art education. Even when I was a kid, my main Barbie play involved setting up their elaborate pad rather than getting gussied up for a date with Ken (but of course I did cut lots of their hair, despite my mom's warnings).
Since I don't have the time to redesign this blog again (and I don't want to confuse my readers by doing it so soon after the July rehab) and I don't have the money to pay someone more creative to do it, I thought I'd just drool over this list of
50 Beautiful Blog Designs from
Smashing Magazine.
These are my favorites:


Suddenly I feel pretty embarrassed about my digs here.
Thanks to my hubby for bringing this to my attention: see you DO care about my blogging skills!

ReplyDeleteI love your Friday reviews--I need to check that one. I would love to redo my blog, but don't have the money.
ReplyDeleteI saw you entered to win a cool coffee maker, I did too :)I also read that you have a new baby and can't have too much caffeine...I suggest splitting your coffee half regular half decaf!

ReplyDeleteThose are some great ones! I need to think about a little makeover...
ReplyDeleteThanks for entering the giveaway :)
ReplyDeleteI received the headband. It's perfect! Thank you 100 times over!!!!
ReplyDeleteYour blog looks gorgeous! No need to be envious of these other designs. I need to dig in and spruce mine up. First I need to figure out how to make my header actually fit. Second I need to jazz it up. I'm going to check out the site you suggested!
ReplyDeleteWe are of such kindred spirit. I wish I had a different blog design for each day of the week.
ReplyDeleteWe dress according to the mood we're in so why not dress our blogs accordingly? I think someone needs to come up with a "mood design" like mood rings that would change according to mood.
Your design is perfect for Katydid and Kid although I understand the desire for change.
Hi,
ReplyDeleteI really like your blog design. Especially the colors! I hope you keep it for awhile, I think it is unique and beautiful.
