Quick Friday post,
I'm so excited that I have been receiving comments you are all truly wonderful. This blogging lark is truly addictive. Can anyone tell me how to add the followers gadget to my sidebar, it doesnt seem to want to work for me. (not that I'm assuming I'll get any followers but you never know) Busy weekend ahead,I've got some ideas brewing and of course my choir performance on Sunday (fingers crossed no rain). Oh and I'd better fit in some housework somewhere (boo......).

  1. Karen, A happy welcome to you in Blogland! A year ago I posted the same question! My lovely blog is a gift from my two YOUNG friends that you see buttons on my side bar. I call them "My Two Chelseas!" I wish I could help you, but I do know that any of the wonderful ladies listed on my sidebar would be happy to help you. I love that you also have taken up crafting at this point in life. Who knew adult women did such things! Elizabeth

  3. Hi Karen,
    Thank you so much for commenting on my blog :-) I tried to respond, but you have a no-reply, so I cannot email you. Have you tried going into your gadgets to add the Followers link?? I think that is how we did it. Love your sweet little blog.

  6. Hi Karen...to put the "followers" on your side bar, go to layout, then click on gadgets. Scroll down until you see the heading for "followers" then click on it. When you view your blog, it should be there. I am sure you will have a lot of followers.
    Kind Regards

    p.s. the gadgets section has lots of things you can add to your side bar...read each one and click on the ones you want. Then if you want them in a particular order; go to layout again and click on the one you want to move and drag it either up or down. The others will adjust...just play with it but always hold the click so you can move the icon, and remember to "save" all the time when you are leaving the page.

  7. Thanks for your visit. If you go into customize and click on add a gadget you should be able to add a followers button. Anyway I think that is how I did it. If not go into your dashboard and there should be an option.

    Welcome to this very addicting hobby of meeting the nicest people! :-)

  9. I see someone already answered your question. Do you need more help? Welcome to blogland!

    I am so sorry about the loss of your mother recently. May your robins return from time to time.
