I have given up on the website route. I am too computer dumb to understand how to layer graphics and all that razz...so I've decided to blog after seeing so many of yours. Way Easy! Like Frannie of Cabin Creek, I hope to have some stuff posted with pics by next week. (Imitation is the best form of flattery!) Enjoy!

Awesome, Dawn! Looks great. I especially like the 'farm charm' bracelets. Very creative!

Not to hijack, but here's a link for 'The Cutest Blog on the Block' website for anyone who's interested in something other then the normal templates avaliable. A lot of friends of mine have used this site and have said it's easy to work with.... http://www.thecutestblogontheblock.com/

Dawn, I spent waaayyyyeee too much time playing around with stuff but have really enjoyed being creative here on my blog. I just added a playlist too and hope that you enjoy the music! I went to lots of blogs and found all the 'doo-dads' and then played around with them.
I have added you to my 'list' and look forward to checking in now and again!
Angie.

Phew! No one told me how hard it would be to keep up with a blog! Sheesh! I've been very busy lately. Getting ready for.....dare I say it. Christmas. I've been doing nothing but making jewelry and other stuff and then photographing it, and then posting it. Everytime I think I'm at a stoppin point, I make or see something else that would be fun to diplay, sell, and/or talk about. Tammy: I forgot to tell you that I looked at your blog. Believe it or not, I've been to Glen Burnie! Lots of fun times there! (and Baltimore too). Well, back to the old blog....

Dawn I know what you mean you almost need a second life to keep up. I found a new thing for blogspot. it is called "followers" and it helps folks keep track of their blogs sites they read and also helps you keep track of who is visiting on a regular bases. I just installed it - can someone give it a try so I know I did it right - PLEASE> I am not the best at these things.

Okay, Grace, I posted a comment and signed up as a follower. I'm not the best at these things either but it looked like it worked. We'll see...................

I signed up. However, I'm no good at doing the "newer" thing for blog, so I have mine on classic, could you give me that html code for that thing. I hope it's not a widget. lol Seems hard for me to get the widgets to work in the classic version. I would change my blog over, BUT, I like my lay out, and don't want to lose it. And it won't let me use it in the new version. Grrr.

I thank you ladies - I too am not the best at these things but I am hoping it will help me help others stay in touch. Heather I am not sure - I am really not computer savy maybe the help center button can answer that question. When I went to my blogspot account you go to your layout page, under gadget you will find the follower, click the + button and then save it should be done. Hope that helps.

I am also trying to figure out how to put you folks on my site - I would love to let my readers know about all the wonderful things you are up too. So far I am not getting it to work but I will soon...

Happy blogging - love reading about you all.

lol That's ok Grace.

See I don't have the same layout as you. You are using the newer version, I'm on the old version, if I change the new version I will lose the way I have mine. I hate that they won't let me just change to the new version and keep my old template. Grrr.

Any how, thankyou! :)
