Design this blog!

I started this blog January 2013 using wordpress.com and a theme called Fresh & Clean. This theme has been retired. It’s time to pick a new look for my blog and you can help!

Here are a few I’m considering. Please let me know your favorites in the comments. I’d also love to hear what’s important to you: size of the text, the font, the photography or something else!

Choice #1 The Writer

Choice #2 Sight

Change is good…right?

Sometimes we have to change, because the world keeps moving. Keep on moving, praying, loving and telling me how you feel–I love hearing from you! Blessings on your week!

  2. #1 or #3 – I like #1 because of the picture layout and focus on all of your awesome pictures; I like #3 because it’s optimized for reading. 🙂 I’m a big minimalist fan for blogs, too!

    1. ⭐ Thank you! Great details on your preference–I appreciate hearing those. Ampersand uses Roboto as its default typeface. It is a definite contender. Have a wonderful week! 😀

  3. I started from the bottom up, so #1 was the last one I saw. And said Yesss. . . Your photos are a wonderful tie-in to your blogs.
