This month, I used two really great tutorials. I'm sharing this on my blog because I always look at beautiful blogs, and wonder how they do it. (Not to say my blog is one of the "beautiful, well-organized blogs"! ha!) Just thought y'all might like to try this out yourself too.
The first change was to make my 3 column layout into a 2 column layout, with a split column on the right sidebar. Here's the link at Lawny Designs blog to do this if you'd like to give it a try. I really, really like this!! I will not be changing my layout for some time because I think it really cleaned it up.
Then, to further simplify, I also created a tabbed browsing box. I used this tutorial/linked tutorial at Confessions of a Homeschooler (one of my fave homeschooling blogs, by the way!). So now, I'm really loving the cleaner look of my blog!
Hope this helps y'all out! Next time I attempt to simplify, I think I'll be trying to add dropdown menus to my navigational bar. :) Always something more to do.
