My New New Blog Button

I'm was doing a little house cleaning on my blog and decided to revamp my blog button with something more personal looking. I wanted something to show the beach and the family. So I came across a post from Suger Coat It about Blog Design Makeovers ; Making a Button and she's also posted these really good tutorials on how to give your blog a whole new look. If you have no idea what to do and want some expert advise she also offers her services to give your blog a new look, design, twitter account and button. Just click here to find out more.

So I was going through my photos on Picasa and came across a day at the beach with the kids running around. Ashley was at a friend's birthday party and Jacob and I followed along. While Ash was playing with the games, Jacob keeping himself busy building in the sand and chasing the little crabs along the beach.
So here it is, my new button. 

My new Blog Button!

I went back and had a look again at my original image for my blog and I was devastated to find out that it was only free for download as a wallpaper and screen saver but in very small print not allowed for websites or blogs. I'm crushed because I really liked that pic so I'll have to settle viewing it as my wallpaper. The site said I could write to the artist for permission to use it but I really don't think that's likely. 


Anyway, I managed to find a replacement artwork and it's all free for all types of occasions so I'm happy to show you my new blog button. 


Here it is...

.... I still miss the koalas!

Here it is...... the Blog Button!

Here's my blog button. 

After late nights and endless research I've finally found the perfect image for my blog button. Two little koalas on the beach...... this side of the island!

I'm not a techy kind of person so it took me a while to figure out how to make a blog button. I googled it it course and found lots of sites giving tons of advice on how to make it. 

I've always wanted one and whenever I see a blog with a really nice button I've always thought ...one day I'll have one of those! So finally here it is and I hope you like it.
