Change is Imminent!

Blog Intent (for now)
What exactly do I mean when I say Change is Imminent?  Thanks for asking.  I will tell you.  I guess this is my blog intent so to speak.  So I will lay it out for you in case there is confusion on my part.  I have been blogging for under 2 months and I really enjoy it.  I hope to continue to make new friendships and get in more link ups and get exposed to more creative people/things as I go.  I do have to say that if my blog is a reflection of me as a person- there will be some change so I may as well get it out in the open now.  For instance, there is not a week that goes by where I don't move a piece of furniture around in my home (poor husband).  I like to see what things look like in different corners and in different rooms.  I also have been doing lots of research and trying to come up with a blog that will be inviting and not straining on the eyes etc.  I have been drawn to many blogs and have not been able to figure out why.  Is it Jesus in them? Is it that they have a nice smile and cute kids?  Or is it the layout? Hmmmm.  Got me to thinking!

I have been on http://www.snaptheconference.com/blog/ today, as well as other resource pages and I read that people like to look at clean, white, fresh things etc.  I thought of my blog and although I love the look of the watercolor thingy that it's got going on, I wonder if something less color-y may be better.  I am basically in the mood and mind to make changes (hopefully nothing too drastic) but wanted to say something in case you open the blog up and its in Hebrew or  symbols instead of letters!  I don't think I would do that thankfully.

Also, when I started out I thought I would do crafts all the time since I do them everyday anyway.  Only thing is, I still do them everyday but have not really posted them for some silly reason.  I made super cute pillows this weekend that really made my living room look more lived in.  Here they are.  Man, Hobby Lobby has some cute fabric right now!  I digress.  Well, maybe soon I will post tutorials and such but right now I am trying to get the basics down, like easy to read blog and consistency and pictures with watermarks -which I still have yet to be able to pin down.  And oh yeah, keep failing trying to get that Pinterest pin that POPS out and says HELLO when you hover over a picture.  Not to mention, adding my signature on the bottom has been nuts!  That's why it is at the very bottom of my post right now, totally gone rouge! 

I know what good looks like.  I see it on a daily basis.  Problem is, do I want to be good or average.   I think average right now.  NO just kidding.  I think I am still in my learning curve so bear with me and if you have tips, tricks, suggestions, helpful hints, they are all welcome!  

Thanks and here would be my digital signature,(                                              ) if I could figure it out!

Hang in there with me and hopefully it won't be too BUMPY!  Don't forget to look at my out of place signature at the bottom!
