  I have a website at one WordPress.com URL that I would like to transfer to another existing WordPress.com URL that I own. The instructions explain how to transfer content, but it does not explain how to transfer the rest of the website. (Design, template, customizations, widgets, etc.) Is there a way to do this?

  Thanks for your help.

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

  You can’t do that, no. Themes, widgets, customisation all have to be set up anew for the other blog. You can transfer a custom design upgrade and premium theme to the other URL if you have those, but the actual customisations have to be copied and pasted manually to the new site as well (http://en.support.wordpress.com/themes/premium-themes/#how-to-transfer-a-premium-theme http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-upgrades/#transferring-upgrades).
