 * Hey im still very new to using wordpress, but I have been trying to install Masonry
   [http://masonry.desandro.com/](http://masonry.desandro.com/) into a child theme
   based off the skeleton theme [http://themes.simplethemes.com/skeleton/](http://themes.simplethemes.com/skeleton/).
   I want to add it as a another page template to the theme.. With featured content
   above it.

 * Looking at the functions.php of the child theme here:
 * [https://github.com/simplethemes/skeleton_wp/blob/master/skeleton_childtheme/functions.php](https://github.com/simplethemes/skeleton_wp/blob/master/skeleton_childtheme/functions.php)
 * I see that he enqueues a bunch of jQuery.
 * Turns our WordPress comes with masonry and thus you should be able to add it 
   simply by enuqueing it.
 * I would try adding :
 *     ```
       $javascripts  = wp_enqueue_script(' jquery-masonry');
       ```
   
 * right after line 174.
 * That should work.
 * Here’s more info about the default scripts built-into WP – [http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_enqueue_script](http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_enqueue_script)
