 * Hi there! 🙂
 * If you go to Appearance -> Customize you can select from a variety of skins that
   come with the theme.
 * However, if you just want to change the background color you can use some CSS.
 * You can paste this CSS in Appearance -> Customize -> Custom CSS or you can create
   a child theme.
 * You can read about child themes [here](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes).
 * Use this CSS :
 *     ```
       body {
         background: #COLOR CODE HERE;
        }
       ```
   
 * I hope that helps!
