Four years ago, I was sick of viewing boring/generic blog designs. I like to customize just about everything I can, so I knew that there must be a way to make these blogs a little more attractive! I began studying HTML like crazy! I was becoming such a nerd...and I loved it. Thus, Leelou Blogs was born.
I get asked a lot where the name Leelou comes from. When I was 3, my best friend Jason Johnson couldn't say Julie, so he called me Leelou and it kind of stuck. If you're out there Jason, let me know! I'll give you a free blog design :)
I am also one of the co-founders of the Casual Blogger Conference and I occasionally find time to update my family blog. I am addicted to buying domain names and have at least 4 more sites I hope to launch by 2045. When I'm not blogging it up, I can be found consuming baked potato skins, laughing loudly, attempting to take pictures, reading Fancy Nancy and changing diapers.
Leelou Blogs has changed my life. I really do love what I do. Everyone is unique and I want to help make your blog more creative, more exciting, and more YOU!
Whether it's your family journal, recipes, an upcoming wedding or a business you're sharing, custom blogs are the way to go! There are over 175,000 blogs created every single day. Make yours

If you're looking for a free blog template, custom blog layout, logo design, invitations or even just some free printables...whatever you need, we've got it! All your graphical needs in handy one place :)

You both are so cute and creative! I know a Jason Johnson by the way, did he go to Skyline High perhaps??
ReplyDeleteI love the new site, and can't wait for new designs. My blog is more as an outlet FROM my family - I tend to just write and vent and it feels good. Thanks for making it a pretty place.
ReplyDeleteI know a Jason Johnson, too - but I think I'm older than you cutie pies.
I'm so excited with your site and I check it constantly! I've passed it on to a lot of blogging friends and have gotten several compliments on my blog layouts! I'm also working on teaching and Enrichment night for our RS on blogging. If either of you have any tips on what I could teach, that would be helpful! I think I will be doing it for a class in November and possibly for a "club" thing starting the first of the year! Thanks for all your inspiration and hard work! -Tia Little (Cheyenne, WY)
ReplyDeletePS...I don't know Jason Johnson. Sorry!
I think you ought to have a "Where's Jason Johnson" contest!!
ReplyDeleteIt would be SO fun!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE your designs!!! I am a new blogger and am truly enjoying it, but I am also a scrapbooker, and it normally takes me a long to time to put pages together so same thing here on my blogspot.. LOL!! I love the cute ladies !! Will you guys be offering those for free?? Or will we have to purchase those?? I truly love the way you put colors together!! I just love your colors all together!!! Thank you for even offering your works of art for free!! We are truly blessed with it..
ReplyDeleteHey ladies
ReplyDeletelove the site- seriously wish I had stumbled upon it.. three days ago before I PAID for a blog makeover-- and not as cute as your lay-outs...
isn't that the way sometimes??
Anyway- I was wondering if you could post about my birthday give-away... this week...
also- just wanted you to know.. I have a website: www.bookclub4boys.com if your son struggles reading. (I have four boys- and book clubs have helped motivate them...)
Love love the site!
Laura
i just downloaded the retro background. I love it! 1 ?=if i put a link button 2 your site, can we remove the long advertisement across the top of my blog to your site? Do you all have any custom fonts people can use?
ReplyDeletethanks,
lisa (aka "Lolli")
Hi!! I stummbled upon your website and I just love it!! Y'all are very creative!
ReplyDeleteI know a Jason Johnson here in Florida!! My sister graduated with him! LOL..
I try to use your blogs and I don't think I am doing something right because they never show up.. COuld you please send me the directions to my email? If so it is sphjenny@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteSo I never had looked at the about me, or about us (now) page of your blog and it was funny to read becasue at the end where you mentioned annoying people by offering to do their blog headers....that's totally me! Lol, I'm always offering to do some kinda crazy photoshopping crap for my family and sometimes I wonder if they get annoyed by it as well. Just funny that there is someone else out there who does the same thing!
ReplyDeleteI wasn't able to e-mail you. I need a new header for my blog, do you design those as well? I have the drawing of a mom I want in it, similar to your header. Please let me know.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I have a Wordpress blog, can I buy the Cocoa layout and put that under my blog layout? Would that work? Please e-mail me, dagmar@DagmarBleasdale.com
Thanks!
Oi garotas!
ReplyDeleteEu até poderia escrever em inglês para vocês mas como sou uma mulher brasileira não irei fazer isso.
Conheci o LeeLou Blog por uma amiga e, confesso, sou apaixonada por vocês duas.
I´m LDS and very happy and excited to make new fiend.
Tchau!
I have been using your templates for quite some time now. I'm on my third one and am loving the Chirp and Happy Day templates! I'm trying to get my husband to let me have an early Christmas present and buy myself a link button from you two. Love your work! Thanks for putting such cute free layouts out there for bloggers that don't have dumb movie themes or such.
ReplyDeleteHow cool! I plan to start actually using my blog soon, and I'm excited to have come across such cute blog layouts as yours!
ReplyDeleteI just came across your site and I LOVE it!!! You're so talented, I wish I knew the ins and outs of HTML and other things you use! For now I've added a few of your buttons, I'm intrigued to see what you have coming in the New Year. I'll definitely be back!
ReplyDeleteAnd thanks for helping those who don't know how to make cute web things make their pages cute too!
Hey! Thank You, I just got a free blog design from you! Thanks! I always wondered how other folks got those cute designs, well thanks to you, I have one too!!
ReplyDeleteToo cute Julie...
ReplyDeleteI said the same thing basically...
"Hello, my name is Stephanie & I'm a blog-a-holic"!
(Cute minds think alike I guess).
Your site is adorable...thanks for being such a great part of the wonderful world of blogging!
Hi Julie, visiting for the first time. Love your blog designs and will definitely try one out soon, as I get bored quickly and like to change mine from time to time. Would love you to pay me a visit. Hugs from South Africa, Sharon
ReplyDeleteThis is such an awesome and generous thing that you are doing. I'm becoming kind of a nerd myself, but haven't figured out HTML yet. Thank you so much for your kindness :-)
ReplyDeleteHi Julie. I just found your blog site tonight and am in love with your designs. I'm so lost when it comes to anything tech. I can't wait to use one of your designs. Thank you for being such a generous person. I am not personally Mormon but have attended Mormon services and wedding many times. I had many family and friends who are members and what a loving a generous congratulation they are. I always loved the family priorites that they encourage and the many classes that are based on homemaking.
ReplyDeleteThank you again for your loving and generous spirit. I hope you and your family have a safe and fun Labor Day Weekend.
Hugs...Tracy :)
Thank you all for your sweet comments. I'm so glad you enjoy Leelou designs. I truly love that I can help make your blogs and social media sits as unique as you are.
ReplyDeleteI love what I do and am so thankful for all of you!
Hi Julie - I wanted to let you know that I am nominating you for a blog award! I love your designs, you are so helpful and willing to give us ideas and help when you have a spare moment or two.

Hi Julie! I can see that you are even more beautiful than your designs, and that's difficult! I can also see that your beauty comes from inside.
ReplyDeleteI don't want to brake any rules in the use of your designs so, let me know if its okay for me to use one. I just downloaded it and it looks so pretty! I'm a Close to my Heart Consultant trying just to share what I do to pay a little bit of my hobbie. Please let me know!
