Hey everyone! It's Madi from DIY With Madi, and I am making this post to update you about my blog! If you haven't noticed yet, I changed the layout of it! Now it is spicier and hopefully easier to find posts on. :)) Also, I am so so sorry I haven't been making DIY posts. My AP tests for school are coming up, and I am frantically preparing for them. I will get back into the post-writing and DIY-making soon though, just in time for summer! Let me know what you think about my new blog layout in the comments below! -DIY With Madi
