From the portfolio of Blogs by Sneaky Mama:
Sneaky Mama (aka Jill) started blogging in April, 2007. She wanted to give her blog a custom look, so she spent hundreds of hours learning everything she could about blog design. Eager to share this knowledge with her readers, she created Sneaky Mama Blog Design, a blog dedicated to helping DIY bloggers at all levels of expertise. The makeover requests starting pouring in and out of that need, Blogs by Sneaky Mama was born!
Are you wondering, why the name “Sneaky Mama”? It’s a cute story – read about it here.

Q: Do you have any advice for someone who is considering a blog makeover?
Shop around! Ask your friends for referrals. Find a few blogs that you love and check out the prices, policies, and portfolio of those designers first. Make sure that you completely understand the policy of the designer before you make a deposit.
In addition to her graphic design site, stop by Jill’s Tips and Techniques blog, Sneaky Mama Blog Design. You will be glad you did. She even has her tips organized by skill level! There is so much there to learn.
Jill offers several affordable makeover packages ($35-$100) as well as the option to order individual items, no package purchase required.
Blogs by Sneaky Mama is giving away a Basic Makeover ($35 value) and use of a design kit from a list of designers that she has permission to work with (up to $9). The winner will be able to add additional items (odds and ends) to their makeover at 50% off the regular price. Blogger blogs only. Commercial blogs are ineligible.
