  Hi! Is there a way that I can make my site background pattern look more faded, so that it is not so eye-catching? Thanks!

  Hi there, the easiest way to do this would be to edit your image in an image editing program and get the faded look that you want and then add that URL to the following CSS in your custom CSS. Here is the URL for the image you are currently using: http://i1.wp.com/colourlovers.com.s3.amazonaws.com/images/patterns/2634/2634248.png . You can download that to your computer and then when you have it as you wish, upload a copy to your Media Library.

  body.custom-background {
      background-image: url("URL_OF_IMAGE") !important;
  }
