Holly Becker of Decor8 has expanded her long-running course, Blogging Your Way, with a new 2.0 class for bloggers past the beginning stages. Holly is a supportive, open, and honest teacher, and I’m proud to be joining her along with Jeanette Lunde from Fryd + Design to teach the first session this June.
I’ll be showing how I create layouts for Making it Lovely, talking about advertising and monetizing your blog, and more. The full list of course topics covered can be found here.
Join Us!
Registration has begun and you can sign up here. I also have two spots to give away! You can enter by leaving a comment below with the class’ hashtag: #byw2.
Rules: The giveaway is open to international entrants until midnight CST, May 20. One entry per person. Two winners will be chosen at random and notified on May 21. Seats are non-transferrable, and those who have already registered and paid for BYW 2.0 are ineligible. Valid only for the June e-course. Comments must include #byw2 to be eligible.
* The winners are Sarah A. and Kate S.

May 17, 2012 at 8:12 pmFun, thanks for the chance! :)
Okay, when you have time will you do a follow up post on that adorable dollhouse you made for your daughter!?! I thought it was AMAZING and I’d love to see if you made any changes to the exterior or interior or if the kids are getting old enough to play with it? I’m not sure what the perfect age for dollhouse playing is!?!
I’ve been looking at the kit you built and wondered how many hours it took to put it together and what scale it is? I wonder how you knew what type of furniture to buy on ebay so that it would fit your dollhouse so cutely! :)
No hurry, just was wondering if you added on the front porch or if you left it looking like a Colonial clean line style?
I’ll be checking back for the scoop! :)

May 18, 2012 at 4:45 pmI only found your site recently, and I still can’t stop thinking about your Mathematical Mind piece. Your willingness to share something so personal really says so much about you, and I’d love to be able to blog that way.
