spring clean

Well once again, 6 months on I'm re-designing The Lovely Drawer again. It's turning out to be a bi-annual occasion, although not intentionally. This time I can conveniently blame it on the season and call it a 'Spring clean'. The good and bad thing about being a designer is your style is constantly evolving as you work and so things that please your eyes one month, may not the next. I guess that's what keeps designing exciting and stops us from becoming stagnant. Any way it's not ground breakingly different but I hope you enjoy the clean up and new colour palette.

out with the old

So I thought it was time for a spring clean, despite the obvious fact that spring is long gone. I felt it was time to re-design my blog with my main intention being to de-clutter! I have a natural tendency to add layer after layer to my designs, which probably comes from years spent avidly collaging. I was hoping for a fresher look and a simpler backdrop for each post to sit in. I say all this as if I did anything more than design it. My husband took care of making it all and changing the html coding lark. I have no understanding of any of that stuff. He said that I deal with the looks and he's the brain, which sounds mildly insulting but I guess it's true. It took six months for me to tire of my original design so lets see where things are after another six months.
