What Do You Use?

Have any of you noticed how often I've changed backgrounds lately?  I usually like to stick with a background that fits my personality, as well as the blog, but I also like to change with the seasons.  So now that it's Christmas time, I'm trying to find that background that really fits.

I can't say I've been extremely successful.  I like the reindeer I had, but the red background was a little abrasive for me.  I like the warm, red colors because it makes me feel like I'm snuggled inside on a cold winter day.  But I don't care for a lot of the red or warm color designs.  So then I think start leaning towards the blues....let's be honest, we all know I like blues.  :)  

But blues mean chilly, cold and snow.  They make me feel cold, even if they accurately reflect the holiday season.  :\  So I'm trying out a few in the meantime, seeing if I like them or not.  If I don't, I'll find something new.  

Where do you all find your backgrounds?  I've tried thecutestblogontheblock.com, hotbliggityblog.com, and shabbyblogs.com.

  2. I've used blogger templates from this site: http://hotlayouts2u.com/
    and bookmarked some from these: http://www.pyzam.com/bloggertemplates , http://www.pimp-my-profile.com/blogger-templates/

    But in the end, I went for simplicity b/c I became overly obsessed w/blogger templates, so obsessed that I actually sat and browsed through 170 pages on one site. OMGosh I can't believe I did that.
