Well this is one brave (or stupid - lol!) move for me! I'm entering a blog hop. This type of thing is so far out of my comfort zone, it's not even funny! Not out of the comfort zone as far as blog hopping goes - but ASKING for criticism out of the comfort zone. The reality is, so few people can give constructive criticism that I am absolutely terrified of doing this. However, I do love my blogging and I do love someone who can tell you like it is without hurting your feelings - so I shall do my best not to take it personally!! I already know a few things I'll hear like "uh dude - your posts are like 12 pages long - can 'ya shorten 'em up a bit??" lol. I KNOW that one's coming. I'm a woman of far too many words! Anywho - here's the description of what this is all about from the creators of the blog hop:
"I am so excited to be part of a very unique blog hop. Gail @My Repurposed Life and MeganDVD @ Beauty in the Attempt are hosting “The Bold and the Beautiful-your blog reviewed”.
Please take a look around my blog, check out the layout, pages, buttons, sidebar and gadgets. I would love for you to gently critique my blog. I’m hoping you will leave me some positive feedback about my blog. It would be great if you could give me constructive criticism but be sure to tell me what you like about my blog too! Do you like my pictures? Does my blog load quickly for you? How about the font? All tips and tidbits welcome!
You are welcome to join the party, it starts Thursday night and is open for a week."
Finally - please be gentle? Please??

Hi Tami :)
I found your blog via the BlogHop and I am so happy I did!
I am loving the colors you have -- sooo much fun!
All your sections are easy to navigate and neat.
I honestly can not find one single thing I would change here!
I am your newest follower and look forward to reading more of your posts :)

Hi Tami,
I love the colors of your blog. It looks so fun. I love all the fonts and separators.
I did find that the sidebars seem a little too close to the body. Maybe it's just me.
Thanks for coming by my blog.
Oh one last thing, I wanted to e-mail you back but had the non-reply thingy. For more information on that, this tutorial is pretty helpful.
It looks great! I love the design and colors. My only suggestion would be to add a photo to your 'About Me' section. Other than that, I think it looks amazing! :)
What a CUTE blog! The layout is great and the colors are so fun. It seems really well organized. The only problem, and someone already addressed it, is the no-reply thing.
Cute, cute, cute blog!!
Okay - here goes the responses thus far - hope you all see them :)
Regina - Thanks!! I'm so glad you stopped by. I like fun colors - what can I say??
Yanet - Thank you!! I appreciate the suggestion and I tend to agree!! Also thanks for the tutorial - that's great!
Megan - Thanks! Again - picture is something I've considered and have lazily not put in!! Thanks so much!!
Keep 'em coming people!! You guys are doing a TERRIFIC job of being constructive and not crushing me - lol!! Good work!

Thanks for your input in my site! I appreciate it very much!
Other than you are missing a Disclaimer, everything else in your blog is great - great colors, everything properly labeled and separated. Sometimes, others don't see that it's so helpful for the visitors if everything is properly separated.
Tami-great blog, I like the colors and your header.
Seems to me like you have a great layout going.
I would recommend you moving your followers up a little higher on your left sidebar.
Thanks for linking up, I hope you've enjoyed it and made some new friends!

Hello! I'm a fan of your blog, and I'm looking forward to following you. I like your "Why is Everything Beautiful?" page. I hope you don't mind if I borrow this idea. :) One thing, though. I almost missed this page because The link font is so light.
The pictures next to each sidebar heading is really cute. You have a cute blog! Glad I got to meet you through the hop! :)
Hello my dear and thank you for linking up to our little party. I love the whimsy and cute nature of your blog. It definitely tickles me and I think is a great hint at your vivid and lovely personality. :) My only gentle suggestion is to move up your followers to right under you. Many bloggers choose within 1 minute if they plan to follow a new lovely blog they fall upon. I think you can entice and tease them even more to follow you by placement of your followers. Once again this is just a suggestion and I know your blog is still defined by how it will best suit you. :) Thank you for taking the risk and hopefully you have had a delightful time and gained a few new friends along the way. I hope to see more of you in my little corner. Have a great Sunday.
Cheers~
