Trying out different looks

Well, I'm playing again. Yes, that's what I like to do. Fiddle, really. I like to fiddle around with things all the time. I change blog appearances every few weeks or so because I can't find one I'm truly satisfied with. I would love to learn html because I have some great ideas for some wonderful country looking blogs, but I don't know if I have the patience to learn html. Oh well.

So, it you stop in from time to time, you may find that you don't recognize the turf any more. Don't worry, you'll still be in the right place. Eventually, I'll find something that suites me just fine. I'm looking for roosters, a country theme, wonderful country thises and thats but can't seem to find one I really love. 

If anyone has any suggestions on places that offer free blogger templates, or low-cost fees for designing one for you, let me know. I should also probably get into contact with my sister. She is getting into this, I think. I may have to give her a jingle. ;-) But she's very busy all the time. You know, that beautiful, warm California life of hers. That's where she lives, you see.  She's an artist and going to a graduate school there and learning all sorts of really amazing artisty things. Her talent ranges from cute and sweet, to dramatic and breath-taking. I'd love to have range like that. But I'm the fiddler in the family. I play with cloth, flowers, and stitch a little bit of this and that. So, designing a blog or website, not really my cup of tea.

If only there were a way to stitch a blog template... hmmmmmm.....

  1. I like this one. I am like you, fickle on the blog design. I wish I knew html too but too lazy to learn.

  2. I've been blogging for 2 years.... Up until about a month ago I changed my header photo weekly just because it was fun and some people visited my blog just to see what my next header would be and not necessarily for my blog content... *giggles*. I now use the blogger Designer and like it for the most part. I set my blog as wide as it would go so I could have larger photos. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help you out with making a header. I'm not an expert but do enjoy playing around with bloggy stuff.

  3. I think that's a really cool idea. I like the idea of changing the header every week... not sure if I'll be able to do so successfully. That's the toughest part for me for some odd reason. I can never get the text right on the background. hmmm...

    The new blogger designer is a bit easier though. I just love finding those free background sites and getting new backgrounds here and there. I'm always on the look out for new ones, if you two know of any, let me know!
    Thanks!
