  The blog linked to your name is an empty blog – is that the one you are asking about? We need a link to the blog in question to provide accurate help.

  Thanks so much for answering so fast! This blog is a test blog (for me to learn) so I can make one for a client. It is ftjeremy.wordpress.com

  First see here:

  To remove all the default sidebar items and add your own, you go to Appearance>Widgets and add the widgets you want. To remove all the default sidebar items without adding others, you add an empty Text widget. But this will leave a nasty empty space. If you want no sidebar at all, you need to select a theme with bottom widget areas only or a theme in which the sidebar is optional – see here:
