Hello! I love your blog! I am brand new to the blogging world and so this is my first time linking up to another blog. I’ve added your button to my page and will be commenting on the 2 before and after mine. The only thing is I made a mistake with the name of my post. I’m number 588 and I thought the name was the blog name, but it should be the title of my post. Is there a way I can change it to say ‘Photo Gallery Wall’?
I am also adding a link to your blog under my heading “blogs I love to read”
