New Design!
The re-design of Noodles & Doodles is finally here! As my blog is just over a year old now, what better way to celebrate than with a lovely new outfit. I can manage the design side of things but when it comes to the reality of building the site I am afraid my technical knowledge lets me down a bit. So a really big THANK YOU to my lovely and especially clever hubby for staying up till 3.30 last night to get it done for me. He is such a busy boy with work that I am extremely grateful that he managed to fit me in, especially as its hardly crucial work and it certainly doesn't pay the bills!
There are still a couple of tweaks to do but it is 99% there and I am so pleased with the new look - it certainly makes up for my lack of photos lately. I will attempt to get my blogroll finished and maybe sometime get my 'currently' section done too. Also the 'All ABout Me' section will have background information, my portfolio and hopefully a place to buy stuff. But for now I am eternally grateful for it getting this far. If I had attempted it myself it may never have reached this stage!
As for it being a year since I started this blog, I have to say it has definitely changed my life. I know this seems a little dramatic but for me the whole point was to have a creative outlet that disciplined me enough to actually get some creating done. I have certainly achieved this and now, when I haven't created or blogged for a while I feel really guilty and it spurs me on to get my act together. I have also met lots of interesting people, with great blogs, who have inspired me over this past year. Some of these I will list in my blogroll, but I have subscribed to so many newsfeeds the list would be endless!
So hopefully the next year of Noodles & Doodles will help me to be more creative and more inspired.
