Hi !
You could make two columns using CSS but I think it would be simpler to insert a gallery with two columns. You’ll also have the possibility to see te image and description more clearly when you click on them !
You can learn how to use galleries here : http://en.support.wordpress.com/images/gallery/
Hope this helps,

Hi Emily,
You can create columns using HTML:

Finally, one last thing — the them you are using, Reddle, has an unusually wide sidebar. If you want your main content to spread out more horizontally, you might prefer to switch to a similar theme with a wider main content area.
Here are a couple of suggestions (these are all simple themes like Reddle, with a large custom header and right sidebar):
