1. Download your fovorite social media icon buttons. There are lots of freebies out there, just google. The ones I used are from Icon Dock : Vector Social Media Icons.
2. Edit in your favorite photo editing program.
(Illustrator, Photoshop, PSE, etc.)
I opened the .png icons in PSE and used my hue/saturation adjustment levels to match the color of my blog. I know there are other ways to do this, but this was how I did it.
3. Upload your files to photobucket or other image hosting site.
4. Copy the code below and edit in notepad, word, or other text editing program.
