Happy Anniversary

Photobucket

Regular readers of PinkBow will see that it is looking a little different now. 

I can't believe I have been writing the blog for (almost, next month) a year now. It has grown slowly but I have learned a lot from my time in the 'blogosphere'. Mostly I have enjoyed the interaction with people from around the world - are there any other mediums in which you can find similar characters to yourself with shared interests, in such a wide and diverse way. 

As much as I love my friends, not all of them share my passions and I do feel that I have made some good friends and contacts through the blog. Your comments keep me motivated to continue with it, I enjoy reading them so much and through them find new blogs to discover for myself. 

And so, for my blog's 1st birthday, I decided to buy it a makeover. I worked with Shannon at EightCrazyDesign, who interpreted my ideas and made them possible, coming up with this great design. The finished product is better than I had imagined and will definitely encourage me to post more often!
