New Blog Design!

Posted on by Ashleigh

Even though I’ve only had this blog for a matter of months, I’ve not been happy with my blog design at all. For about a month now I’ve been finding backgrounds and testing layouts, taking screenshots but never actually saving the design because I wasn’t completely happy with it.

But oh how that’s changed!

I wanted my blog to take on a certain look, but I don’t know how well I’ll be able to explain this…

Basically, it’s inspired by the word “frolic” in my blog name. That word reminds me of those whimsical photos you see on places like pinterest and tumblr, of a girl dancing around all dreamer-like. And this new design is exactly the sort of thing I’ve been looking for!

New design!

I still wasn’t sure whether to change the design or not, but I just kept coming back to it over and over. Plus the people I’ve asked prefer this one to my old design.

If you view blogs on a computer screen, it will look the same as above but with blue strips down the side, depending on how big your screen is.

My title images will be changing to suit the theme, so at the moment they may look a bit out of place.

I really love my new design!

So let me know what you think!

I hope you all like the new design! Hopefully the “dreamer” type look comes across well.

        1. Oh trust me, I have no skills either haha! What happened was I set a theme on my laptop for Google and wanted to use it for my background, so I found a blank version (without the google search bar through the middle), downloaded it, and had to spend a while editing it to get it the right size. Took a while but was worth it!

          2. Literally the most difficult thing was getting it to fit right. You should give it a go if you get tired of your design (although I think your blog design is great already, just saying haha!)

      1. Yeah no problem! Yeah it always feels really good once you redesign. I love redesigning mine. Once I’m done I just want to stare at it forever, lol 😀

  9. Your blog name is really unique so I understand why it could’ve been challenging to make a design that fits. For me, frolic sounds intergalactic and aha, your background looks like stars or some galaxy light years away from Earth. I definitely adore the colors. ❤
    I have been wanting to change my blog design too for almost a couple of months now. But at the moment, I'm still working on it though. 🙂
