  Hi there. I want to edit my blog theme’s font colour and size, and also the hover colour of my blog post titles, but I can’t afford to buy the ‘Custom Design’ upgrade which would allow me to edit CSS etc. Is there any way to accomplish what I want to do without having to pay for ‘Custom Design’? I’m so stressed because of this! I can’t believe WordPress makes you pay for a stupid upgrade just to be able to personalise my blog how I want using CSS! Anyway, thanks for any help you can offer.
  My blog theme is ‘Grisaille’ by the way.
  Here is my blog that I need help with: cosmosfrontline.wordpress.com

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Your own free option on WordPress.com would be to select a theme that was already exactly what you wanted. ;-) I am afraid if you want to customize color, fonts, etc., you have to pay for it.

  The bare minimum price for customization is only pennies a day really, and it helps to support the cost of keeping WordPress.com running.

  Note: There is no free and easy way to change a font color, size and style universally throughout the blog. e in a site title. These are 3 ways to change fonts in free WordPress.com blogs.
  (1) Changing font families, colors and size in text in posts or pages either post by post or page by page by coding into the HTML editor.

  (2) Changing font colors in text in posts or pages either post by post or page by page using the #4 icon (Select text color – change the text color) in Row 2 the Visual editor. http://en.support.wordpress.com/visual-editor/#row-2

  (3) Changing all font families, colors and sizes throughout the whole blog by purchasing an annually renewable Custom Design upgrade and using Typekit Fonts with Staff support. http://en.support.wordpress.com/custom-design/#custom-fonts
