Day Five: Love Your Theme
Today’s assignment: try out at least three other themes — even if you’re happy with the one you first chose. Try one you’re drawn to, and one you would never use.
Today’s assignment was intriguing and yes terrifying! I tend to be one of those people that I stop looking when I’m happy. There were things about my blog that I wasn’t perfectly happy about but all in all I was quite satisfied. I must admit I thought I might skip this assignment. But then I realized I need to get out of my comfort zone. We all do.
I guess that’s pretty much the same in life as well. At least in mine. If it ain’t broke don’t fix it. However, isn’t there always an ‘however’? However, there is always room for improvement. It couldn’t hurt to look. So I looked.
I experienced information overload! There are some beautiful sites, there are some that are too simple and some that are too elaborate. I am a simple girl with simple tastes. I decided that I would change to one that I liked and live with it for a couple of days. Change is hard. But it can be the impetus necessary to open your eyes to something new.
What do you think of the new look? And yes you can be politely brutal. Ha ha ha ha! But I do want honesty. Thanks for looking, thanks for reading, thanks for being you!
I’m on my phone it’s just the same 😄😳😁

I think I’m three days ahead. I know what you’ve written before you do but have to wait to get it.

I like it. It’s clean, and doesn’t have the cluttered, over done look.

I agree. Change is hard but I may actually make this one.

What theme do you have now?
Like you, I prefer a simple clean look, that makes it easy to read posts. I’ll have to go back further to see what your blog has changed from, but it seems similar? – tho I see calligraphy for the headings?
I like it tho – probably because it is similar to mine! haha

It is Penscratch Theme. There were things about my old theme that annoyed me but I was too chicken to change.

Yeah, I understand. From time to time I try a new theme (in draft) but so far have stuck with my current one (Twenty Twelve).
