Blog Remodel

I have been messing with the top of my blog this morning and so far I have not found what I want. I love some of the things out there but when you put them on your blog you can't read the words. I see this on other blogs and it's an irritation as I want to be able to see every word they say without it being hidden. So excuse the mess, step around all the stuff on the floor and I'll get the remodeling completed soon!!

This was going to be at the top but once it was up there it didn't look good. When b&W fabric doesn't look good then you know there is a problem. Oh! did I tell you that B&W is one of my favorites? LOL
