1. CUSTOMIZING
Set the home page as a static page (not as a blog)

Front page: Home
2. Upload your logo
To change the logo, you must go on Appearance >>Theme Options >> General tab. Here you can choose or add a url of your logo (image) or to use title and description, like our demo.

You have to click on “add new” on the Pages menu and:
