Welcome to "The Spin Cycle of Life".

This blog is my little creation as a way for ME to share with YOU all the fun and amazing things I am learning now that I have become a full time stay at home mom! Besides my children, my new little hobbies are Photography, Photo Editing, Digital Scrapbooking, and BLOGGING! I have been lucky enought to have a wonderful group of "lady" friends who have taught me sooo much in each of these areas...and I hope I can pass it all on to you! Enjoy!


And the name you ask......????Well, don't we all have days where we feel like we are on the spin cycle! ;)

CREATING A NEW BLOG

This week we will be learning how to start out a new blog..or do a beautiful makeover on your current blog. Blogs don't have to be journal writing, they can simply be a way to store and post your favorite pictures, or even a place to share with others the things you have learned while being a mommy. You can make a family blog, a business blog, a picture editing blog, or even just a rambling on of your mommy life blog! Make it yours! Personalize it, and share it with friends and family! We would LOVE to see the blogs you have created from this challenge...link us there so we can check it out and share ideas! This will be a two week challenge, so be prepared for more fun next week!

Here are the few example of Julie and Erins Blogs that we have done to help show you the final project. Each one has a different example in it (premade background, self made background, premade header, simple header, slide show header, etc. )

~ Go to http://www.blogger.com/, click Create blog, and fill in your information.



- You can choose any template that you would like. BUT...if you want to change your background on it, then it MUST be a "minima" template. Choose your template, then you are set to start Blogging!


A few good things to know about your new blog is where to post and edit your blog.


On the top right side you will find either your Dashboard or Customize. Click on those, and you will be able to edit your layout, edit old posts or create new posts. You can also change the color of your fonts and all your other blog settings!
