  Hello, bellenesia. You have to make the container element the same width and height as the image size. Please let me know if you need any further help.

  Hi there,

  To add to danrodcode’s answer:

  Are you referring to your background image on your about us page at http://bellenesia.com/?

  A good way to make sure a patterned background doesn’t look grainy is by repeating a tiled image for the background. You must first upload a small image that can be repeated, then selecting the image as your background, and selecting the Repeat : tiled option. You can get to your background options in your customizer here – https://wordpress.com/customize

  You can find repeated background images here – http://bgrepeat.com/
