New Look!

Ok… I didn’t really mean to post this today, but being the technological guru I am, I can’t figure out how it was republished without my permission… I’m sure I gave it permission somehow! I’ll probably be tweaking it here and there over the next couple days.

Give me feedback. Like the look? Hate it? Not sure I’m 100% happy with the look of the blog, but I do love my new logo. I created it because I wanted something a little funkier than I have. I really like fun funky look in a lot of home decorating, and feel like my photography is like that, kind of crazy and fun, so I was inspired by that. I saw an article about Lotta Jansdotter that got my creativity flowing and I sat down and did this. It’s kind of symbolic for me… the six petals of my weird little flower represent the six (weird) people in my family, all connected in the middle by love, God, home. I know it’s weird and unconventional, and it took me a couple days to get used to it, but now I think it’s perfect. It’s my favorite thing about my redesign.

I also have to thank Erica Hernandez who helped me design some of my new stationary and stuff. She’s the best!

So… this is your sneak peek! My new logo, my new colors. New website coming within the next week. Keep watching the blog… I’ll let you know when it goes live, and I’m trying to think of cool things to make everyone excited. Stay tuned!

    I love it Shannon, it suits you. The logo is spunky and I adore the color scheme. Can’t wait to see the new website!

    You’re going to have to give me more details about the Davina thing so I can bring it up at the next family get-together. ;)
