 * You mean the toolbar that only logged in users see?

 * That’s actually a CSS question. You’ll need to add some custom CSS code to change
   the background. You can do that using either the JetPack or Improved Simple CSS
   plugin. Both of those add an _Edit CSS_ page under the _Appearance_ page in the
   dashboard.
 * I’m guessing you’re talking about the links you have below your header image?
   That’s the list that starts with Home and About Me. If so, the CSS you’ll want
   to add is
 *     ```
       #nav {
         background-color: #aaa;
       }
       ```
   
 * Make the #aaa value be whatever shade of grey you’d like. There’s a bunch of 
   possible values at [this page](http://www.december.com/html/spec/color0.html).

 * Thank you! I’m referring to the white toolbar where I have my menu tabs, like….
   Sew Organized Craft Room, Sewing, Crafts, Recipes, etc.
