Change Is Good

So do you notice anything different around here!?;)

I have been doing a little sprucing up. I decided that it was time for a blog makeover and I am so glad I did! Karen from Valentine Designs did a fabulous job creating my new header, sidebar tags, adding social media tags, and making my new blog button!! You may already know Karen from her blog My Desert Cottage. I highly recommend her!Other than wanting the blog to have some pizazz I also wanted to make it more functional for my visitors. As mentioned you can now find my Social Media Tabs in the upper right hand corner of the blog. All you have to do is click on them and they take you to my other pages like FaceBook and HomeTalk.

 I also had Karen add a hovering Pin It button to all the pictures on my blog because I know we are all addicted to Pinterest! So if you see a pic you want to Pin just put your mouse over that pic and click on the P. It is that simple now!:)

I hope that you like all the new changes as much as I do. I will be working on adding a Home Tour tab up at the top so stay tuned and Karen will be updating a few other buttons for me like "How I Found My Style Sundays".

 Before I go I wanted to let you know to hop on over to this gals blog!

This is Kris from Junk Chic Cottage and she asked me to be a part of her Saturday series "Life Behind The Blogger". Thank you Kris for having me over today!

I hope everybody has a wonderful weekend and see ya back here tomorrow for "How I Found My Style Sundays"!

Sprucing Up!

This week I decided to do some sprucing up around From My Front Porch To Yours! It really started when I noticed that my music was no longer working like it should and thus I had to find a new music player. I know there are those who like music and those who do not so now you can find my music player on the side bar and turn it off if you choose. No more having to go all the way to the very bottom of my blog to find it! 

I also found a new blog background that I was not so sure about at first but now am loving which then led to my new header! I need to give a shout out to Marty over at A Stroll Thru Life for helping me find her post on just how to make an awesome new header! Thanx so much Marty!! I really appreciate it!

Next I spent some time making some new pages. Pages elude me in a way and I have yet to figure out how to make my Before & After page work. I was able though to move all of  the weekly blog party buttons to one page and then Fabulous Spots To Visit to another page cleaning up my sidebar and just making it look more tidy. I think it looks a lot less confusing!

I then went and looked at the new gadgets available to us and I found one that list your blogs most popular posts! I thought this was super cool so I added it! I am guessing it changes from day to day but I am not sure.

 I hope you like the changes I made and just want to say thank you again for taking the time to stop by and visit my lil' old blog! I appreciate every one of you and all my bloggy pals! Y'all are the best!
