To cap off the “Birthday-Palooza” week, I thought it only appropriate to unveil something that I’ve been working on.
And by I, I mean Holly. Since I’ve done absolutely nothing but b*tch and moan and yell requests at her.
That’s what I’ve been working on. It suits me.
See that header up there. Holly designed that one for me about 6 months ago.
Here’s what it looked like before Holly got ahold of my blog. Thank heavens for Holly.
As a present to my blog, I decided to hire Holly to create a NEW header for me. Something more streamlined and less busy. (Kinda how I want my life to look – LESS COMPLICATED…getting there..slowly.)
The Healthy Everythingtarian delivered.
I absolutely LOVE it! (And I’ll be switching the header over tomorrow!)
Aside from her fabulous blog/freelance writing/fancy television appearances, Holly has also created headers for these fabulous people/businesses:
Blend Retreat (AND she’s currently working on a new one for 2013!)
Yeah. Holly gotz talent. And she LISTENS. And edits. And puts up with me.
I highly recommend her!

Beautiful new header! And you are rocking it girl!
Love the new look and I had a friend of a friend help me. I’m in desperate need of a little blog help though. Yikes. Happy bloggy birthday my dear friend!!! Hope you’re enjoying your weekend! HUGS!
I hired someone to make my header but I totally love Holly’s work too and would love to work with her :)
I have a blog and on a whim one day I picked the name and designed it myself – with the help of google blogger.
LOVE LOVE LOVE the new header! I did my own, but would love one done by Holly!
Great new look. Love it!
Love the new header! Looks amazing! :)
I love your new look – she did a fantastic job!! It is so professional and fun too. I made my own header, but would love a professional one because I have been thinking of heading over to WP. Love yours!!
I created my own blog header, but I am considering moving to WP and would love a professional header to go with my move. I LOVE YOUR NEW LOOK! It is so simple and classy. Holly did a fantastic job!
I love the new look! You know I approve of pink. :)
Mailing your loving package today!!! Sorry for the delay, but you are getting a double whammy!!!!
I did my own header but have been wanting a cleaner and more professional one since starting my blog.
I am just starting a new blog & would love a new header..Yours looks great!
Nice header
Love your new header!!! I read your guest post earlier, and I really enjoyed it. Smiling!!!!!
I would love a fancy schmancy header!:)
Love the new header! I created my own, but it could definitely use a professional touch.
Great giveaway! I did my own header but it needs a professional’s touch!
I am a fairly new blogger, and the header I have right now is a beautiful picture I took of our farm/garden. Although, I would definitely be open to a new theme! :)
love the new header! simple and to the point :) great job!! Holly is great!
Need a headover makeover soooo badly! Text on mine isn’t very clear and I have NO IDEA how to fix it! Yours looks great and Holly’s other work is awesome.
I haven’t changed my header ever, I need to do that asap!
Sadly I blog and have a horrible header! I so need this prize.
Your new header looks incredible!!!!!!!
I love the new header and would love to win a new one!!!!
Your new header looks great!!! I would love to win a n update!!!! And I am maili your goodies tomorrow!! Thanks for being patient :)
I created my own header using just a plain jane “pages” (kinda like Microsoft Word for Mac) application, but getting a pro to do it never hurts(;
Love your new header! It looks great (and so does your back) :-). My blog header used to just be a picture I took in China. Now it has some pretty cursive with another China picture and I kind of like it…
I LOVE your new header – it’s perfect!!
This is the best giveaway ever! Mine is pretty boring. I need a new one!
I “designed” my own headed by simply adding a picture of a salad I took. It’s a very blurry and zoomed in picture! Needless to say, I’m in desperate need of a new header!
All of these headers are great. Mine isn’t anything specially made, just a pic of me running in a pretty area (my blog is mostly a running blog). I’d love to get something customized to cover my other topical areas as well!
you are the best! so blessed to call you a friend. i am ecstatic you love the header and will get that button to you this weekend! mucho love to you.
p.s. already have 3 emails from people wanting headers! :)
ahhhh best giveaway ever! I designed my own header with the help of a college buddy like… 4 years ago? hehe – I am dying for an update!
I desperately need a new header. Also love your new header!
Absolutely love the new header!!! So profesh!!! And I will never get tired of hearing PALOOZA!!!! And there are too many exclamation points in this comment!!!!!
Yes! I designed my own header but I’m what some might call artistically challenged. So- I could sure use a new one!!!
Your new header rocks!
I just had my blog redesigned, but kept a tweaked version of my old header (didn’t have a clear vision and the re-design ate up all my spare change at the time).
I’d love to see what Holly could do for my blog!
Oh my goodness! Your new header is fantastic! I need Holly’s help in a bad way.
That’s soooo great! I love your new header and I desperately need one! Mine is totally generic.
That’s such a creative header. I really like how she incorporated a corkboard of notes and tailored it to the general topics of the blog.
As for me, I utilized a free WordPress template but searched around for a long time to find one that fit my niche. I experimented a lot with different layouts in the beginning and settled on my current theme which is great. I’ll definitely look into a custom theme once I build a decent following.
I created my own header, but I’d love a professionally designed one!
WOW! Such an incredible gift! She has incredible talent too. I’ll probably take advantage of her skillz if I don’t win, because I badly need a bloggy makeover. I just lack the knowledge and creativity (and motivation) to figure it out!
What a gift! I’d love to win this one as My header is simply a photo – no name, no nothing! I kind of “hired” a friend once who did other work for our young adult cancer websites, but mine was a freebie and got pushed to the way side, so I haven’t gone back for more or spent the money as of yet. Holly is so talented…and I love the new look, Linds!
Love it!!! I created my own header, but I’m in desperate need of a new one!
Love the header! I am doing a total blog makevoer in the fall so this would be a great start!
i had jenny from PB&Jenny create mine. i’m so computer illiterate!
Can you train me, Lindsay? That picture of you..Whoa, Baby!! As a new blogger, I can use all the help I can get when it comes to sprucing up my blog. Holly sure is talented!
I love the new header! And Holly! But not exclamation points and I keep using them! Anyway, my blog header is lame. I need one in the worst way, but a) I have no graphic talent and b) I’m not self-hosted. Does that matter? I don’t care. I’m entering anyway. And Happy Birthday!
I love the header! I created my own header using basic cropping of a picture I liked. Pretty standard and uninspirational! My blog could absolutely use some talent in the design department! Great giveaway!
Awesome giveaway, your new header is great! My (very simple) header was designed by a neighbor/blogger of mine, but I’d like to update it!
I love the new header! I’d love to win a new header. My blog could use a little sprucing up. She does nice work.
I created my own header (through Paint…. Yeah I know) but would love the chance for a new one!! :)
I love the new header!! It looks awesome! :)
i LOVE your new header and i LOVE holly! perfect combo, right?!? i hired someone to make my blog header, but i’m thinking a new one is necessary soon! i’d love to winnnnn.
I have a pretty standard wordpress template for my blog (which i am soooo late in updating it’s almost funny. almost.) but it does have a picture header that i picked out. Probably outdated by now!
I’m too shy to blog! But I love reading them :)
I created my own blog header, but I would love something more customized and fun.
Looks great. Your pictures is awesome.
I paid a designer to do my entire blog because I know nothing about coding, but I really do need to learn.
LOVE the new look. So perfect!
Seriously amazing! So glad you told us about her- she’s got talent. And I do not.- I’ve been playing with my header lately, but could use some help… might have to look her up (if I don’t win!) :)
I’ve created my own headers so far but lately have been looking into having someone who really knows what they’re doing make one for me! This would be wonderful!
I’ve been wanting a header with photos and more style on my blog. I made my blog myself, so nothing too fancy up there just yet.
I love the new look Lindsay!
this would be so awesome to win…i have always wanted to redo my blog but not sure how!
I just uploaded a picture for my header. I need a new one!
I have SUCH blog envy everytime I see a fun new blog header or blog layout. I would LOVE to spruce mine up, it’s so boring and templated right now, sad face! I LOVE the new header, it is awesome!!!
it looks so good!
my header sucks, I’d love a new one.
This is a reminder I need to blog more… And I need a header!! YEAH!
I’m a new blogger, and don’t have a header!!! So, I’d LOVE to win one! Pick me! :)
The lovely Maren did mine for me last week, I love the change. She has some great designing skills
Lookin schnazzy! And hot! it’s perfect. Holly really does great work.
love the new header! :) I’m getting mine done right now! Actually, I won it at BLEND! ;)
Ahh I also requested the talented Miss Hollz to give my blog a little makeover. So if I win, can I just have the bag of goodies? Totally going to pay you Holly, since let’s be honest, I need more than just a header. :)
I love the new blog header!!! Can’t wait to see it up on your site!
Lindsay, I love your new header. Love the cursive and the pink! Kudos to Holly! I don’t blog, but did have a children’s book blog at one time (I’m a teacher) but that fizzled, so if I win I’ll pass on the blog header giveaway to someone else.
I “designed” my own “header” though right now it is mostly just a photo I took and the name of my blog. I have been looking for someone to help me redesign my blog, so this would be awesome!
I LOVE the header!!!! Thank you so much for the shout out… Holly is a total design rockstar. And funny.
Love her. Love you. Double-check love crazy rambles. :)
I just started reading Holly’s blog after having so many blends say how great she is – clearly talented too! Awesome idea for a giveaway! Yay blogger support!
The new header is beautiful!!!!!
LOOOOOOOVE it! so talented that Holly! And i must say, the back muscles are super sexy.
