I recently had the pleasure of working with Kristin on a blog design for Kristin Bonin. Kristin Bonin is a faith based blog that uplifts, inspires, and encourages readers to chase after God.
Kristin contacted me as a new blogger with hopes of eventfully branding herself as a Christian speaker and writer.
Kristin wanted a blog that showcased her personality, and is a helpful and inspiring resource for her readers.
Kristin’s design includes a watercolor theme using some of her favorite colors.
I didn’t know this when creating her header, but hummingbirds are close to Kristin’s heart. It was a total coincidence that I included one in her design. How amazing is that?
Kristin Bonin also features a helpful resources page, beautiful, and inspirational pinnable quotes and coordinating design elements such as a custom “Meet Kristin” widget, a favicon, contact page, social media icons, an email subscription widget, and a custom “pin it” button for post images.
To see Kristin’s design live, be sure to visit Kristin Bonin and show her some love!
Happy blogging,
Wow, beautiful job!
Thanks so much Krystal!
Hey Tiffany,
I love her theme, especially the water colors at the top. I think that’s just the right touch of color honestly.
One thing I will say about a lot of the new themes today, including yours, is that the font color is so light. Why can’t it be black. It’s so light that at times you have to highlight it to read it. Maybe that’s a personal preference for each person for what they like but it’s hard on some of our eyes. I know it’s hard on mine.
Great job though on Kristin’s site, you are a very talented lady.

Thanks so much Adrienne! I get what you’re saying about the text colors. I think part of it has to do with preference, and the other part has to do with individual monitors. For example, if you have your brightness turned up too high on your monitor, then the text would be harder for you to read due to your personal settings.
I know I personally feel like there are times when black text just doesn’t mesh well with the design, although that would be the best option if I want to make sure everyone can read with ease.
