I've got that itch again!!!!

Around this time last year, I kept feeling bored and irritated with my blog - specifically the blog design (so much so that I actually wrote two posts about it here and here). I was using a generic template from Blogger, that kinda reminded me of wallpaper. In my mind when I chose that template, I was welcoming readers into my little living room for a bit of gisting and chatting. But then right around my birthday, I got this overwhelming feeling to change the look and feel of the blog. I played around with things and here we are now.

BUT...

I'm getting sick of the design now. What is it about June and feeling like this? I don't want to be one of those people who keeps changing everything randomly, because I appreciate consistency. However, change is the only constant, right? Blogs that I'm attracted to usually have the clean, minimalist looks - stark white background, with black lettering and maybe a pop or two of color. I'm tempted to go that route, but doesn't it seem like A WHOLE LOT of blogs look the same?!?!?! Or is that just me?

What do you think? Please respond in the poll below.

Do you think I should get a new blog design?

  1. Like you, I prefer clean, minimalist looks, I find it hard to focus and dwell on the content of a post if I'm distracted by vivid colours. White background with black lettering always holds my attention.

    I quite understand the urge to switch things up once in a while, it's almost like painting your bedroom wall with fresh, popping colour, suddenly your sleep feels even sweeter, lol :-)

    1. Exactly! Maybe a black and white palette with a pop of color - now what pop of color?!?!?!

  2. I actually like it just the way it is. Looks solid with a pop of fun. I dunno if I'm making sense. Lol. But it's cool.

  3. Your blog design is nice & simple. Instead of changing the whole design, you could jazz it up a lil bit instead. :)

    1. I got it done at an event. It was done by The Henna Place, and they're located on Fola Osibo Road in Lekki 1. I hear they're a little pricey though.
