My other blog, The Property Files, is wearing a completely new look today thanks to a new theme by Style Hatch and a minimal logo designed by my very talented friend David Gray. Expect bigger photos, a more dynamic layout, and the theme works brilliantly for the longer text posts.
And you can also follow on Instagram. I'll be posting photos from the blog - and some extras that didn't make it on, as some of the houses featured are so good I could do with posting more than ten images - and regramming interiors and styling and architectural photos from people I follow.
I love this layout. I found a background that I loved and made a new logo. I think this theme will be a keeper. It can be changed around so much that it will be like getting a new layout often! :)
Just want to give a shout out to the folks @stylehatch - who made my blog's lovely theme. Noticed a wee glitch where quotes I was re-blogging were appearing in a random colour, so I emailed Style Hatch support earlier today and received a reply (and some handy CSS code to solve the problem) in super-quick time.
I mention this in case any of you are theme shopping, or thinking of changing your blog's look. Support is huge if you don't know the ins and outs of themes yourself (I certainly don't), as things can sometimes need tweaked, and these guys are on it.
Introducing Jetty, a thoughtfully designed premium theme to channel for your ideas, inspiration and musings on Tumblr all hand-crafted by your friends at Style Hatch. Our team poured countless hours into polishing all the details of Jetty, and we can't wait to see what you do with it!
