I thought this old place needed a new look but I had no idea how to implement it technically. Thankfully Bryn with the help of her father had the know how. I sent off the basic design to them and they did the techno magic to get it working. Hooray!
I know lighter color schemes are more popular but I think photos look so much more bright against a darker backdrop. And how could I abandon the lovely shade of gray? You know I had to throw in a little damask or it just wouldn't be me :)
I know I need to clean up the sidebars and work on organizing my flickr photos but what do you think of the new look?
NICE NEW LOOK. AND DAMASK...MY FAV.

Oh the new look is lovely!
ReplyDeleteI like the new look!
ReplyDeleteI love your blog! A friend sent me to your site because she loves your baths. I cannot believe what an amazing job you've done with the house!!! I read about it for hours last night! Addicted to your site. We have a blog also but it's nothing as cool as what you have done (ours is a modern house from scratch and I have no idea how to get my blog to look better?). www.daveandchristina.com
ReplyDeleteLooks great!
ReplyDeleteI definitely like the gray, and the damask on the header looks great. I DO miss the vertical pictures you had on the previous header. That said, I think this new look is very classy.
ReplyDeleteIt's exciting seeing it in action! Thanks for letting us work on your awesome blog!!
ReplyDeleteNice job..looks great..but either way it was nice to me.
ReplyDeleteI think it needs some darker framing...like black sidebars or something.
ReplyDeleteI love it! It looks fantastic!
ReplyDeleteI like it! Funny, I just made my blog darker grey too.
ReplyDeleteGreat minds...
:)
love the header!
ReplyDeleteI love the gray background! I was just experimenting with a darker background for my blog this morning :)
ReplyDeleteLOVE the new look. and i think it's very 'you' with the damask.

I don't know if it is just on my computer but the blog list frame is breaking up...love the new look girl!
ReplyDeleteIt's lovely!
ReplyDeleteTo be honest, I find the grey a little dreary, but I like the damask and the graphics a lot.
ReplyDeleteLove it. I love working with Bryn. I know I've been driving the poor girl crazy as she helps me with my work website, but she has been totally sweet about it.
ReplyDeleteGreat job.
looks great!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! Just perfect for you...
ReplyDeleteNow I want a make-over!

ReplyDeletelovin it!! but then anything u did would be gorgeous. seriously.
ReplyDeleteLove the colours and contrast...
ReplyDeleteHave to break the mold and say I miss the old formatting :(
ReplyDeleteI commented on your most recent post about how I love the redesign. But I do have to say (here) that the white on grey is SO much easier to read than the white on black.
ReplyDeleteLOVE it! The header looks great....Bryn did an amazing job. You take such great photos and they look so crisp against the dark background...I totally agree with you on that. Well done! :-)
ReplyDeleteLOVE THE LOOK. Been away for a bit in programmingland and I'm back to a yummy new Brooklyn Limestone treat!
ReplyDeleteMissed it!
