The site looks amazing you should be very proud
The new blog is really beautiful, but I’d really like to see the links without running my mouse over them…
Yes, love it!
We’ve loved every moment of guest blogging on design*sponge. Thank you so much for asking us. The new layout is a triumph Grace and we were so glad to be a part of the relaunch. Thanks again!
That thing on the stove – is it what i think, which is a steamer for making milk froth? If yes, where did you get it? It is so brilliant and I desperately want one! I live in Denmark, so the brand/make would be very helpful.
Congrats on the gorgeous new site! No doubt you’ve earned a glass of wine or 4 this weekend after the launch!
The site is BEAUTIFUL and I look forward to getting even more d* fixes daily!
Congratulations on your new site and fabulous look! I always love visiting because there is nothing cookie-cutter about your site!
Here’s to a successful future!

Gorgeous site! You must be so proud :)
wow, congrats, the site is so fresh and new, well done!
The new site is GORGEOUS!
I really like the new look. The design for the post headings is really fantastic. Props to whoever thought of the translucent ribbon. I’ve got to show this to my graphic designer friend.
well done lady!
well done lady! I bet u’ll get more and more visitors. Keep posting.
I just Lover your site!. can you tell me what CMS you are using. I created several Blogger blong/sites but’s quite difficult to add pages without adding new blogs, and if add a new blog, I cannot tie it to the “main” blog. I want o be able to have a “main page” with the latest blog posts, but also to have separate pages with selected blog entries only or just static data… am I asking too much? :(… you can see one of my “blog/sites” at 7fl6.com
