how to: edit your facebook landing page

so, i've been working on my facebook page quite a bit, hence all the posts on facebook. i created a custom landing page on pagemodo, which i have reviewed in this post HERE .

first, click on the "edit page" button in the upper right-hand corner of the page. it looks like this:

next, click on the "manage permissions" option on the left sidebar. then look in the middle of the page for the "default landing tab" setting. click on the drop down menu and select the name of your preferred landing tab, then hit save.

TA-DA!

you now have a totally set up facebook landing page.

incredible tutorials!

just a note of sorry....i know i haven't posted in forever, but i've been extremely busy!

anyways, this post comes with a bit of a background story....i wanted to redo my room, and i LOVED this anthropologie bedding:

well, the price tag was $300 for the duvet alone. i found this a little pricey and did some searching online for a cheaper option, but i found nothing. then i came across this wonderful site! (<- that's clickable!)

and, believe it or not, they had a tutorial on how to make this exact bedding!

so, i completed the instructions and ended up with a lovely quilt that i personally enjoy better than the original. also, the whole project cost me about $75. it was a little lengthy and frustrating at times, but the final product was SO worth the work! i enlisted a friend to help me and the project was a lot more doable and enjoyable than i imagined. you can find the tutorial HERE (part one) and HERE (part two).

also on this site was a tutorial on how to make this:

i made this and it was incredibly easy. i was scared at first because i cannot draw/paint to save my life, but i have to say mine looks quite nice!! you can find this tutorial HERE !

these are the only two i've attempted from this site, but i want to try the following:

let me know if this was helpful or if you need any advice on the projects i've completed. i'll keep you updated on my room's proccess(:

how to : editing your facebook page's URL

okay, so recently i had some trouble. my facebook page's URL was yucky. and i mean YUCK-Y! it wasn't only ugly though...it was kinda a bother. whenever someone needed a link to my facebook page, i'd have to run off and find what the link was. the link was something like www.facebook.com/124873948729/pages/#/graciesdesigns.


YUCK, big time! this is just kinda a downer, not to mention it looks very unprofessional! to get rid of this, you have to:

• go to www.facebook.com/username/
• click on the page you want to change
•  in the little box that appears type what you want to go on the end. for example, if you want it to be www.facebook.com/awesomestore then you'd put awesomestore in the box!

it's a super easy solution to an annoying little problem. so, to sum it up,

before: www.facebook.com/124873948729/pages/#/graciesdesigns

after: www.facebook.com/graciesdesigns

HOORAY!
