Please see my two preliminary design options.

I chose http://mountainmusicparlor.com/. I'm having a difficult time choosing between the two background images; I really like them both. I chose to overlay the image on prelim 2 onto distressed wood, which I could also do to the warmer image in prelim 1.

I quite like the American flag text logo you designed. I think you might not need the additional flag and eagle/flag images. I like the b/w food slicer images, but might have a variety of different pieces of equipment. Not sure about the purple in the navigation buttons; I think I'd like it better i...

I love this background image, it's totally ethereal and dreamy and fitting. I feel like the name gets lost in the logo redesign; I actually don't mind her original logo and I even think that the gold color of it would fit nicely right in place of the gray one; there's plenty of gold in that backgrou...

Wow, that original website really was shit! Your swirly silhouette top bar is pretty cool. I'd like to see the 007 logo still in this design somewhere. I think the black/white/gray color scheme is fitting and I like the image you chose. I'm not sold on your typeface choices in your navigation or add...

I like homepage_2 best. I love that image with the big gorgeous grill and I like the taupe color you pulled from it. I'm not sold on the rust color you chose in the navigation (as on Gallery); I think you could maybe pull a red out of that badge on the home image. I also think you could stick with a...

Nice soothing designs. I think I like the background texture of the second one better; it's more flowy. But I also like that the first design has that nice mountain image which adds some interest. I'm not sold on the tan accent color, I think I'd like just a bit more color pop. The typeface choice f...

Well that second headline, with the little kids holding up the letters, is damn cute! It's darling, and for me it's the winner. I think you're on to something with the fresh fruit background as well, but I think that you need all the 'What is Penny Juice?' text right there on the homepage. I'm not s...

I like the concept of the image with the doors opening to the ocean. I think the black stroke boxes are unnecessary. I think you could play with type a little more on your headline and maybe pull a color from the background image to create navigation buttons.

I like your logo redesign. I think the purple design is more interesting; I also definitely prefer the script font choice you used in your navigation better than the italics of the other design. On the home page, I think you could make the image larger. On the About Me page, I would like to see the ...
