Week 1A: Creating my blog

 Choosing a blog theme can be daunting! I have never entertained the idea of doing a blog and for me, there were many choices. I can easily get overwhelmed with a project like this because the perfectionist in me wants it to be perfect. I finally decided to go with a simple option to start with and I could change it later if I didn't like the final product. I wanted something that would represent me, but also be straightforward.

The theme I chose was Awesome Inc. Artsy. I chose the purple background because, well, purple is my favorite color! The random waves are like me. I am a little bit boho, a little woo-hoo, a little methodic, a little traditional, and a little goofy! Okay. A LOT goofy! 

The font I chose is simple, but not traditional. I am not a fan of frilly fonts, because they are difficult to read sometimes. Cherry cream soda has just enough character for my liking. I also like a simple layout for the ease of reading and fewer distractions.

I added a photo of myself so there could be a face to my name. The rest will be a work in progress!

  1. I'm also such a perfectionist, i've already changed my blogs theme! (and probably will many times)
    Purple's my favorite too, I think you should embrace it and make a solid color theme that goes with the background image. It will really give your blog that extra kick it needs. Other than the font being a bit small, I appreciate an easy to read font.
