I have a dilemma! I want a new design for my blog and I'm willing to pay about $30 to get it. There are so many blog designers out there, but I don't know who to choose. Here are five that I found today:
SWEET CHEEKY DESIGNS
SCRAPBLOG DESIGNS BY HILARY
DESIGNER BLOGS
MEMORIES BY DESIGN
FOR GOODNESSS SAKES BLOG DESIGNS
I have seen so many blogs that I love, but I don't know which way to go. Here are some ideas of what I'd like:
* I'd really like 3 columns
* I like my sidebar, but is it too much? Should I tone it down?
* I love earthtones: sage green, golden yellow, deep orange, deep blue, and deep purple
* I love gerber daisies, paisleys, vines, scroll work
* Not really into the cartoon look
* A header with a place to show pictures (but a way to change the pictures as Sam grows)
* A signature at the bottom of each post
* An e-mail button and/or a blog button
* Maybe something so it looks like I'm writing in a notebook
* Something interesting to catch the eye
Come on all you blog stalkers...you come to read, but don't comment...I get about 30-50 visitors a day, but only 2-5 comments...now it's your turn to say something...
WHAT SHOULD I DO? HOW DO I DECIDE? HOW DO I GET STARTED!

I like the site I use because I can change it whenever I want and they even have seasonal themes. And you can add the picture header to the top if you want. And if I played around with the 3 column template I could help you set that up. I do miss my 3 columns.
If you go to my blog the top left corner has the link to where I get my backgrounds. I like to tinker so I won't pay anyone for something that I won't be able to change later, but that's just me.
I like your blog the way it is. Sometimes it's slow to load the white background though.
Hi Tracey,
You say that you are not into the cartoon look so I guess that www.thecutestblogontheblock.com is out of the question. I don't know if you will find any of these interesting http://www.ehsany.com/. Let me know what you think and I will help you search

This is where I got my signature from. Sorry to comment so much. I just love reading your blog and I am trying my best to help
I don't have any good advice because I make my own headers and use blogger's templates, but I do like what you have now. I understand the need to change, though, and I think having a designer do it for you is a great idea. Oh, and $30 doesn't seem too unreasonable! Good luck!
I also like what you have now, but I'm with Debbie, sometimes the white part is a little slow to load.
I have no ideas on your options...but I won't pay someone to change mine (that's me...) and I have no time to mess with it myself. If you have time and want to mess with it, you should! Then you can change it whenever you want!!!
