My very own website!

In my last post I mentioned having my own website. I never thought that only a few days later that it would have come to fruition! Or that I would have done it all on my ownsome! Thank you very much to Mrs Magic Beans for suggesting this build-your-own website. I must say it was pretty muppet-friendly and the technical support excellent!
I would love to hear your thoughts on my site, if you can spare a moment to have a little look!

    That does look great and seems very user friendly. Hope you have 'buckets' of luck with it.

    Congratulations on the new website - I love all your pieces but the collages are amazing with such detail. Have you thought about having them printed onto post cards?

    Just a thought I forgot to mention, would it be worth having a link on your website to your folksy shop so tempted viewers can buy on whim without having to search around your blog for where to buy or contact you and wait for a reply??

    Thanks everyone for your encouragement and kindwords! Belinda, all of the items on my site are available to buy online through Paypal. Perhaps I need to make this clearer on the site!

    Hi Kirsty, your site looks really good, and as others have said easy to use. I do think a reference to payment methods would be good, as I tend to look for that on web sites (hoping they accept paypal!)

    Hello Kirsty!
    Your new site is very good and looks wonderful! Well done! It's very clear and beautiful!
    About your collages...I love love love them! I wish I have once time to try...
    I don't see the nature-collage, from a field with flowers...that was the first your work I saw and remember always. I love that new harbour collage also very much!
    I love also all the wooden and fabric crafts you create!
    Have a lovely time! Teje

    Your website is really pretty, Kristy! Congratulations! But I think you can put a little bit more on the homepage section. When was the last time you updated it? The font design can be artsy, too. Your St. Michael's Mount collage reminds me of my uncle from Cincinnati. Anyway, I'll visit your site again soon. Hope to see more progress.
