I have never had a blog, but after seeing all the nice ones you ladies have I was inspired. So I need advice...give the good the bad and the ugly on mine...

I think it is a great start. However, I would go for a little bigger font for the cursive style words. Of course, This is because my eyes are not very good! =)

Every time I click on the words are there for a second, then go away. I can see the picture but that's it. Other than that it looks good to me. But where did the words go?

I noticed that too Kristin. I don't know, I think it must have something to do with the color scheme. I am really not goos at all this computer stuff though!

The layout is very nice and original. The font size is a little small for the cursive font. I might pick a softer color for the font. A little bit off-white or light gray is easy on the eyes with the blueish background. Or leave it like it is. Very cute.

Really cute, love the bright colors. I wear reading glasses but had a little trouble with the white lettering. Have fun with it!

Jack up the font size and go for a light grey color to make it softer on the eyes since the background is so bright. LOVE THE PICTURE!

I am trying to post a comment, but it keeps erasing it. I will try later.
Love the picture of the canning farmgirl. When I get back from the West, I will seriously get down to business and start our henhouse. I will contact you about a trip to Bboopster's market.

I ask not for a larger garden, but for finer seeds.
I get up every morning determined to both change the world and have one hell of a good time. Sometimes this makes planning my day difficult.

I am having trouble leaving a comment at your blog. But what I was trying to say is the blog looks great! I love the homey cursive font and the textured side panels that look like fabric are really pretty!

Really a sweet blog...the font is most excellent and the colors give it a nice vintage feel!
