Blog Ideas

Post by Heidi in AK » Tue Feb 08, 2011 10:21 pm

Hi! I don't know if this is appropriate to post here...but I am looking for ideas on a blog title and decorations/background, etc. I have one that I let go defunct because, unfortunately, someone who was malicious toward me chose to use a post I wrote against me. I was being authentic and just talking about my lack of deserving the cross of Christ, and, well, she's not a believer and didn't understand, yada yada.

Ok, anyway, with us beginning the homeschool journey, I'd love to post our projects and school days, but I don't have a cute, readable blog right now or a catchy title.

Our Scripture passage for homeschool is Psalm 78:3-7 and I was praying for something cute that reflects me. I am not crafty or home ec-y or anything, but I do like baking, and I am a teacher at heart. We are both in ministry and I've served before as a children's pastor, for which Deuteronomy 6:4-7 were our ministry verses. You can see there's a theme spiritually for us.

Anyone have any cute ideas for a blog name? I can write like nobody's business, but I have not a creative catchy title bone in my body!!! And the same goes for the layout/background!!!

What about from Psalms 78:7 Trust, Remember, Obey? Or a background of a doorframe from Dueteronomy's image of 6:9. Honestly Just go with something and then as you see God's direction in your writings change your visuals to match. I have changed my background a few times because of the hosted images being moved and it's kind of a pain but not huge. Still have not found one I am in Love with. Check mine out if you want, I use blogger and the background came from http://hotbliggityblog.com/?refer=true

Hi Heidi,
I don't actually have an idea yet but I just wanted to say I'm glad to hear you're getting the blog started again! I can't wait to check it out. I'm going to give some more thought to your request. Good luck! :D
