    Hello! Much thanks to the tutorials and this forum I am so close to the custom header I desire, but I must have some stray CSS that is driving me crazy!

    Using the directions I found here I was able to set up my header so it has a header left (which contains most of the logo and the contact info) and a header-right (which has the green curve with a transparent space below).  When I added these to functions and style the I acquired a 10px "margin" at the top of the page that I want to get rid of.  I can't seem to find it and would much appreciate a fresh set of eyes.

    Thank you!

    hehe no problem 🙂

    The padding is around line 105 of your child theme style.css, #header .widget-area. Just change it from "10px 0 0;" to "0;" and it should take care of it.
