I have been keeping a secret for a few months... and it has been hard not to give it away! Thank goodness I can finally tell you today!!!
After 4 1/2 year of blogging and 1,457 posts I am finally moving to WORDPRESS.... and my blog is being totally redesigned!
I have been working with Julie at BLOGGER BOUTIQUE for months to make StoneGable even better and more user friendly! AND StoneGable will have a new, fresh look without loosing my signature style (lots of big images).
The day has finally come!!!! It is moving day!
So what does that mean for my readers?
It means no new posts for a few days... I have so many posts and pictures to move that the whole process might take up to 3 days!
You can still enjoy all of my past posts and dive into my archives for inspiration... all 1,456 previous posts!
Or you can follow me on FACEBOOK, TWITTER, PINTEREST or INSTAGRAM where I'll be hanging out!

And when I am finally moved to Wordpress, I will begin posting new material right away. It may take a little while before I learn the Wordpress ropes. So please be patient while I learn how to navigate this new system.
The end goal is to give StoneGable a new, fresh and friendly look and to help bring more and better material to my dear readers.
I love the idea of moving forward and improving StoneGable!
Let's do it together!

ReplyDeleteI wish you all the best in your move, see ya soon! :-)
ReplyDeleteSee you on the flip side. Please keep track of lessons learned while making this transition - it'll help those of us who choose to do it later. :)

You've made the BIG leap! Can't wait to see the new look - I'm sure it will be fabulous! I've been thinking of doing the same for a while - hopefully by the end of the year! Please let me know how it goes and if you have any tips for me!
ReplyDeleteHow exciting Yvonne! !
ReplyDeleteSo exciting! Hope you have a smooth transition...can't wait to see your new look!
ReplyDeleteBlessings,

Absolutely the best blog I read; how can you ever make it better?! Looking forward to the changes.
ReplyDeleteCongratulation! This is so exciting for you. I've really enjoyed your blog and thought it was so beautiful -- like the other person said, I don't know how you can make it better but I'll be looking forward to the surprise.
ReplyDeleteHello Yvonne, You'll love it! There are so many wonderful plug-ins you can use in WordPress - I've thoroughly enjoyed it! I hope you have a marvelous weekend,
ReplyDeleteKathy
I hope all goes well with the move. We will look forward to see the new look.
ReplyDeleteHugs Kay
Cheers to a bigger and better blog..is that possible?? You have such a wonderful blog already:) Good luck cannot wait until the big reveal!
ReplyDeleteGood luck! I don't like having to fill in info everytime to leave a comment though. If that is the one Susan bnotp switched to. I have to fill it out everytime to comment from my ipad, so I don't, lol! I don't see any difference on the readers end, but maybe on yours it is better.
ReplyDeleteFancy Shmancy. ;) I see no difference either, on my end as far as the reading goes, but... I have also stopped other blogs who converted just because they make it difficult for us to comment. I will suck it up with yours though since I enjoy it so much. I only read 2 blogs anymore and yours happens to be one. :) Good luck.
ReplyDeleteHow sweet, Nancy. There are many good reasons to switch to Wordpress... they are technical... but the biggest reason is that I will own all my content. With blogger, they own half.
DeleteI switched earlier this year, and made the changes myself, which was part of the problem. It was a rough journey, but overall, I'm glad I did it. I think any work at all involving technology will certainly have occasional glitches.
ReplyDeleteGood luck, and can't wait to see the "new you!"
Good luck with the move. See you at the new site.
ReplyDeleteYvonne,
ReplyDeleteFrom the very beginning. . .StoneGable has always been an inspiration for my own blog!
I love the softness and elegance of your format!
New and improved. . .count me in!!!
Hoping to see StoneGable in wordpress, soon!!!
Fondly,
Pat
Yvonne -- I know it's going to be fabulous because YOU are fabulous! Best of luck on the blog's facelift.
ReplyDeleteI agree, I haven't loved commenting on wordpress, they make it such a pain. Maybe someone can convince them to change that format!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the move!
