Today I am proud to announce the redesign of Hanami Prints’ Blog: Learning to Live Without Our Children. For months we have been struggling with how to approach the redesign and what would be the best way to gather and distribute all of the helpful information and resources scattered across the Web.
Our goal is to provide grieving parents and family members, honoring the lives of their children, a safe place to share information, news and musings on miscarriage, stillbirth, and infant and child loss. Not much has changed in our philosophy but our approach is much different.
So what has changed?
The biggest change and one I am most proud of is in the look and function of the blog. As a traditional and digital artist the first design bothered me due to the lack of visual interest and organization. So this time around I decided to be creative and design all of my own elements and use a theme created by a great company called WooThemes–I highly recommend this company if you are looking to redesign your WordPress blog and don’t want to get your hands dirty with all of the programming.
The next big change is in the information we will be offering and how it is presented. There are a lot of websites and blogs out there that offer helpful information to our community, but many of them are difficult to navigate or hard to find. We will search the web and bring the information straight to you.
- Listed below are the categories we will be focusing on:
- Medical Resources
- Grief Support
- Random Thoughts
- Blogs
- Videos
- Photography and Art
- Quotes and Poems
If there are any subjects that you would like to see or think that may be helpful, please feel free to share them with the community or email us.

Conclusion
We are so excited to share our new site with all of you and hope that you find Hanami Prints a valuable resource and a welcoming place to share your experiences with an understanding community.
We would love to hear your thoughts about the new design!
