Handmade Charlotte is a great example of what I would love my blog to turn out like. The theme is very similar to mine as well. She includes a variety of do-it-yourself crafts, tasty recipes, and home decor ideas. Her blog includes fun things for kids as well some that are more sophisticated for adults, many of which I would try myself. The crafts and recipes have step-by-step instructions for the reader with visuals to provide extra demonstration. I hope I can incorporate the fun colors and simple layout of this blog, as well as some similar recipes and crafts that will be fun for many different ages.
Uncommon Designs is really similar to Handmade Charlotte, theme wise. They, too, blog a lot about treats and crafts. Their posts, though, relate to the season and the main holidays within those months. Therefore, for any last minute party planners who would like to get creative with their decorations have a place to look. This blog is more complicated than Homemade Charlotte, but includes a lot more variety. For example, their DIY projects are organized into subcategories like no-sew, mason jars, gifts, and so on. That way, you don't have to search through all of the crafts to find what you are looking for. I also like the fact that they have linked pictures at the top of the home page, making it easier to find posts that are for the specific season. I am going to relate my posts and ideas to the current season, as well, and if I get too many posts, I can organize them in a similar way.
Baking Bites is based entirely on cooking. However, the posts are not all recipes. This blog also includes helpful tips for bakers, new kitchen tools to make baking easier, interesting and uncommon ingredients that someone might use, cookbook recommendations, blog recommendations, and reviews on some of the things they have tried already. Baking Bites could be helpful to many people, from hardcore bakers who want to learn new skills or moms who are just looking for a new treat recipe. Again, the overall blog is simple, and fairly easy to navigate. I could use this blog to help improve my own baking skills and help me explain how to make different recipes.
I am very excited to work on this blog. Hopefully, it will end up turning out just as good as these three!
