Merry Christmas and CoffeeShop Blog Backgrounds Set 1!!!

>> Thursday, December 24, 2009


...
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to you all! Regardless of what you celebrate this month, I hope you are spending time with loved ones, eating delicious foods, and perhaps even thrilling little ones with some amazing creative gifts. Christmas is big in our family. Like Thanksgiving,we love all holidays that include home-cooked meals, family and friends, and great conversation.

However, if you are taking it easy this year and have a few free minutes and stopped in here, I wanted to give you a little freebie. I put together this set of blog backgrounds that are 2000px by 1250px. I used the new pattern set from Pixels & Icecream. If you don't know how to add backgrounds to your blog, just read this post. And if you want to make your blog wider (1000px anyone???), check out this post.

Download the free CoffeeShop Blog Background Set 1 HERE or HERE!

And Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!!! I have tons of stuff coming out. More CoffeeShop Editing 101 tutorials, blog backgrounds, tutorial for adding a menubar to a Blogger blog, and several gorgeous actions. And thanks for your incredibly generous donations and enthusiastic and sweet comments!

I love them all. When I followed your directions on how to use them for a blog the left side of the template is white. What am I doing wrong. I've tried resizing it. I made the blog bigger and everything like that.

Thanks
