This is what your Theme Designer looks like. As you can see, there are quite a few buttons to click on to customize your blog. Go ahead and play around with these a bit without being scared because nothing here gets saved unless you actually save your changes.
For today’s tutorial, you will click on the Advanced tab (Note: if you are using a design from DB you will click on Adjust Widths instead) and then find Post Title. Click on Post Title and it will bring up a dialogue section where you will see several different fonts, as well as the options to make them BOLD, italicized and then to be able to change the font size and text color.
I scrolled down and picked the Lobster font and then changed my font size to a 22px font size.
As you are making changes in this area, you will see a preview of how the changes look on your blog so you can get things set how you like them before they are actually saved to your live blog. Don’t be afraid to click on the different options and make changes. Again, nothing will be saved to your live blog until you hit Apply to Blog.
Once you have decided on a font and everything is looking the way you’d like in the preview box, go ahead and click Apply To Blog. Go ahead, don’t be scared.
Then click Back to Blogger to go back to your dashboard or click View Blog to see the changes you made.
Your new Title Font now appears on your front blog page. And then you smile because it’s so cute and for a second, all is right with the world.
Wow, I really like the font you picked. Thanks for the tutorial
Thanks!! I'll use this!! I just wish that blogger gave us more than 4 options for font IN our blog post!! 🙁
Question: when I tried this, it changes my title AND the body of the post. How does yours only chnage the title of the post?
Hi Tia! Depending on the template you are using the options for the fonts might be a little different, try seeing if there is a "Post title font" category and that should change just the post title. Let us know if that doesn't work…thanks!
Yay! Thank you!!
When I follow the steps, it doesn’t give me any more than 4 options for a post font. Why is that? In the tutorial there are all of the different choices…
Thanks

Hi Sara,
It may be due to the theme/template you are using. Are you using one of our designs or another type of design? Please email us [email protected] with a link to your blog so we can take a look at what might be causing the issue. Hope this helps!
