Adding Social Buttons

So as I'm getting on with my blog I'm getting a bit more techy as I go. I've wanted to add social buttons to my blog for ages but never quite figured out how to get exactly what i wanted. At one point i managed to get a twitter button but I didn't like it because it wasnt pretty, then I found an instagram html and finally linked that, but again it wasnt pretty!

So anyway... I did more and more googling and was still baffled by different sites and links and html blah blah blah. Then I came across a link on google and saw it was a blog from a fellow blogger who had also been bemused by this same problem.

She had done the same as me, googled and eventually found another blog to help her! So she wrote her own post on how she made her own and even posted the video she used from this other blog. So I had a watch and it seemed so simple, I gave it ago and made my own buttons on photoshop and hey presto! I now have my very own social buttons =) hurraaah!

So this helpful blog post was from Pam at DiyDesignFanatic.

And here are my little social buttons =) all bright, colouful and puuurdy!
