Welcome to the first Finished for Friday for 2009! Today my show and tell consists of the new blog layout. Seemed like a simple idea at the time but I've learned that it can take a while to switch over. An entire day to be exact, and at least one thing still doesn't work right. Thank you to Cheri for kindly emailing me and letting me know when the comments section wasn't working.
I've also made a button for Finished for Friday. You can grab the code from the sidebar and paste it into your post or your blog to show you're playing along. Many thanks to zakka life for the tutorial on creating a button! I never could have figured this stuff out on my own.
So join in if you've kept up with a resolution, cleaned up your decorations, or gotten something done this week. Thanks for playing along! I'm working on a giveaway that I'm going to offer to future Finished for Friday participants, so stay tuned!
Lovely layout! It's nice to change things up from time to time, isn't it?
ReplyDeleteLove it! Every year I tell myself it's time for a new blog layout and every year, it doesn't happen!
ReplyDeleteoooo.. Pretty. I'll have to get used to it. Like when they change the aisles around in the grocery store.. you have to hunt for things and then discover all sorts of new stuff.. exciting!
ReplyDeleteLooks great.
ReplyDeleteand you know how to make those buttons now???? HOW??? I have to know! It is like a secret hidden knowledge I have yearned for!
(love the button too) and if I actually ever finish anything I am gonna use it!
Great new blog layout!
ReplyDeleteGreat new layout for the New Year! Love the nifty button...now i actually need to make something for Friday!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the invite! This is good. Gives me a goal to work for. One project per week! I can do that, right? :)
ReplyDeleteLove the layout! Very "spring"-y! The tulips are so beautiful as I watch the grapple fall out of the dark, grey sky outside my window!
ReplyDeleteLove this idea.. Found it in on Casa Llamedos...Not sure I'll always have something on Fridays as Saturdays are my normal get it done days... but I will be motivated this way for sure!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the added kick! And your site is very nice by the way! :-)
Your new layout looks great! Thank you for linking to the site and mentioning about how to make a button. I was surprised to see that when I was reading the post.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year

Love the new bright & cheery layout! Very nice!
ReplyDeleteYou are so right... it's very time consuming creating a new look for a blog!
Great job!
I finished up some projects back before Christmas but couldn't post them until now.
ReplyDeleteI love the tulips, but I miss the gorgeous quilt you had up there before.
Love the new look!!!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year to you and your family! See you lots in 2009!

ReplyDeletelove the new layout, very fresh!
ReplyDeleteIt's so bright and cheery! Love it. Thank you for continuing the Finished for Friday series! I may not always participate, but I do love it, plus it keeps me motivated to push forward with the knitting!
ReplyDeleteChange is ALWAYS good. It keeps us on our toes!!
ReplyDeleteI like the layout. I am so behind after being out of town so I can't play along this week. I hope to next though!
ReplyDeleteI made potato salad for New Years and finished it today -- does that count? :) And, thanks for making a button for FFF!
ReplyDeleteI posted a rocket ship amigurumi pattern I created. I was going to wait and post on Friday, but wanted to get it up on Ravelry.com tonight.
ReplyDeleteYour layout looks great......and how exciting to have your own friday meme. I'll definitely have to join in occasionally!
ReplyDeleteI love the new layout, especially on this deary rainy day. I finally took the time to organize my RSS feed and have added you in so I can keep up a bit better.
ReplyDeleteHappy Feast Day.
