PoP, thanks to the very lovely JeniWren, has had along overdue make-over. I absolutely love it, though I’ve got to spend a little bit of time tidying up the sidebars and deciding what I want to keep and what I want to trim.
Let me know what you think – I’m delighted with it. I think it reflects exactly my mood at the moment, a little bit newly subdued, not quite ready to cast off the past, but needing a slightly different face for the future. And Jeni caught my mood, perfectly 🙂
SallyM says
Looks lovely 🙂
merry says
Thank you – oooh, love threaded comments!
Daddybean says
looks good. Think there should be Kindle propped up against those books though 🙂
merry says
Not sure Kindles have made it into clipartdom yet 😀
Jan says
Lovely 🙂
Tracy M says
Truly fabulous. Banner breaks m’heart, but it’s fab Merry – love the layout. XXXXXXX
merry says
I wanted something that was filled with acknowledgements of what we should be and are. I’m not ready to walk away from that – but tried to make sure it also reflected lots of good and positive things about what we do have too. It’s a bit special, I think.
Jeni Wren says
Really glad you like it. Am off to do mine now!!! 🙂
merry says
Utterly in love!
Nic says

KnottedFingers says
Oh wow!!! It’s BEAUTIFUL!!! It looks so clean and crisp!
merry says
KnottedFingers, I’m not sure why the blog keeps moderating you, it seems to andomly pick on people (Caroine and SallyM being two others) – not personal, I promise!
Leslie says
Looks beautiful!
Leslie says
PS- the pictures at the top are so precious……..
Leslie says

The Mad House says
Oh I love it, I need threaded comments, must go and investigate!
I love the chicks and more than that I love that Freddie is under the rainbow, so poignant.
Zoe says
Lovely 🙂
Rachael says
Beautiful. Your banner made me cry, but it’s beautiful. And so right.
merry says
Rachael, i actually sent Jeni along to your for an idea of what I liked – I was really taken with your boxes.
I’m glad you like the boxes; I really needed to acknowledge Freddie as equal in our family count. I loved the chick we put on initially and have kept it for various things, but given how much this blog is about grief now and his place in who we are, it felt right to give a box right up with the rest of us.
Michelle says
Very nice :-). Really like it. Should get mine looking more appealing to me. I still prefer my old one. Guess I’ve got the time right now.
Michelle says
