Major Makeover!

A month ago, I decided to get a customised design for my blog to meet my multiple wants. While I could have easily designed it myself, the wordpress coding and css would have given me a massive headache… and taken forever. So out I went into cyberspace, searching high and low for a wordpress designer who was affordable, had a design style that I liked and was available to take on my project.

And… I found Designed by Lara! The more I saw her portfolio, the more I got excited! I found her! THE designer who would give me the amazing design I imagined. Only, it wasn’t an amazing design… It was a MOST amazing design. (note, wrong use of grammar here. I apologise.)

She’s really fast! And professional! And she put up with my annoying changes and anal view on alignments. So that puts her pretty high in my “Great people to work with” book. (Ok, I don’t have such a book. But if I did, she’ll be high up there.)

So, here’s my new look! I promise, I won’t keep changing my look like I’ve done previously. I might tweak some colour here and there according to my moods and the time of the year, but the overall design is here to stay!

Oh, and look at my nice siggy!

Wohoo!
