When I first heard about the project, I knew that I wanted to create a blog. However, I had no idea what I wanted to write about. So I made a list of all the things I was interested in. From there, I tried to decide which topic would be interesting for me to write about. I chose the theme “beauty on a budget.” I knew that this topic was a good fit for me to write about because I like beauty, and I’m on a budget.
Next, I had to create and design my website. Picking the domain name was really hard. I tried about 20 different domains that had to do with beauty on a budget before finding one that wasn’t taken. I ended up with www.beautyandbudget.weebly.com. I picked a theme that I thought looked cool and started to set up my website. I changed my theme five times before I found one that I’ve stuck with throughout the project.
Then I set up my tabs. I had to narrow it down from beauty to specific subjects. I decided to specifically write about makeup, fashion, and sales. I also added an About page and a Contact page.
Once I was done making my tabs, all I had to do was start writing a blog entry. The first entry was pretty hard. I had to figure out how I was going to format it and what my voice would be. I’ve written ten blog entries now.

Don’t be afraid to finish what you’re doing and start something new. It will be easier to work if you actually enjoy what you’re doing.
