FAQ

What do I need to make this theme work?

You will need a self hosted blog with WordPress installed. Need hosting? I’m in love with Bluehost and their easy, one-click WordPress install. A wordpress.com website with a BUSINESS account will also work!


What can be customized on the homepage?

Just about anything! There are 5 custom widgets you can use to build your homepage + a custom styled testimonial widget, a custom styled featured post widget, a custom styled newsletter widget, and a custom styled products section. You can arrange the sections in any way you’d like. You can change the content, colors, images and background images. You don’t have to use every widget or widget area I used in the demo. Use them all, or use a few. It’s up to you!


How large should my images be?

Your featured images should be around 1650 pixels wide if you’re using the large hero option on single posts and pages. Your hero image on the front page should be 1700 x 800 pixels. Other post/page images should be at least 1085 pixels wide.


I don’t want a shop. Is that okay?

Totally! If you don’t want a shop, simply don’t install WooCommerce & Genesis WooCommerce connect when installing the theme.


If I purchase, will you help me if I get stuck or have more questions?

I’m always happy to help! I’ve created tutorials on how to install & setup your new template. If you need more assistance, you can always email me and I’ll get back to you as soon as I can!

*Disclaimer: I do not provide support on how to make custom code changes to the theme, or other 3rd party plugins that weren’t recommended for the theme. I also don’t provide support for setting up a WooCommerce, unless it’s design related.


Can you install and set up the theme for me?

I’m your girl! Check out my service packages.

Hello, friends. After a whirlwind year, I have pl Hello, friends.

After a whirlwind year, I have planted my “garden” and opened a skin + beauty studio here in downtown Martinsburg. I can’t begin to tell you how much this means to me to build a dream in my hometown. Here are just a few of the joys I have ahead:

1. Emma and I have more quality time together and building special memories as she grows into the amazing teen she is blossoming into. 
2. No longer on the road in long commutes. Biking, even walking are within my reach of healthy, sustainable living practices. 
3. A deeper connection into the roots of my childhood and ancestors. The studio in on the same street (Burke) that I grew up on with fond memories and around the corner from my Grandparents shop on the town square.
4. More intentional time to cultivate my mindfulness practices and long desired creative expansions. 

The studio is a place to relax, restore, rebalance and renew the inner glow and healing within. 

I invite you to come visit for facial and body treatments by scheduling an appointment at link in bio.

/ E A R T H S O N G / “The earth is our origin a / E A R T H S O N G /
“The earth is our origin and destination. The ancient rhythms of the earth have insinuated themselves into the rhythms of the human heart. The earth is not outside us; it is within: the clay from where the tree of the body grows. When we emerge from our offices, rooms and houses, we enter our natural element. We are children of the earth: people to whom the outdoors is home. Nothing can separate us from the vigour and vibrancy of this inheritance. In contrast to our frenetic, saturated lives, the earth offers a calming stillness. Movement and growth in nature takes time. The patience of nature enjoys the ease of trust and hope. There is something in our clay nature that needs to continually experience this ancient, outer ease of the world. It helps us remember who we are and why we are here.”~ John O'Donohue, Beauty: The Invisible Embrace

Strolling through a magical moment in the cedar grove, the sound of movement and the kaleidoscope created was truly awe inspiring.
