Hi All! Well we finally decided to go live with the new look for the blog. Mr. S. deserves most of the credit for this one (Thanks Mr. S!). A lot of the work is actually on the back end. So in addition to a new logo and appearance the blog now has responsive design which is really cool and means that it should work well on phones and tablets too (which is 100% Mr. S.)!
The biggest change is probably the new logo. Which took lots of back and forth and I think is quite beautiful. We have also added a white background, which is departure for me but I think it work well for highlighting the content. We also added a colorful border with different patterns that vary (because I need to have my color and pattern somewhere).
I still have a bunch of stuff to add including a new picture of me (in progress), social media links, a links page and most importantly a full house tour. Since the blog with have its 2 year anniversary at the end of the month, I hope to have all of that up and running by then.
Original Design from 2011
We have come a long way in the two years since we started. I hope you enjoy the new look!
And a special thanks to all of my readers who keep me inspired! xoxo
Congratulations!! The site is beautiful, and totally YOU as well! Mr. S did a fantastic job, and of course he had your exquisite taste to guide him along the way. 🙂
I second Andi, very nicely done, you two! Congratulations!

Thanks Victoria! We spent way too long looking at old Victorian signage for inspiration.
Just catching up here… the site looks AMAZING! Love love love the logo. It’s so you! And the alternating patterns are a nice touch. Well done Mr & Mrs S!
