 * Hi,
 * My blog is at [http://onlinediamondbuyingguide.com/blog/](http://onlinediamondbuyingguide.com/blog/)
   and I am running a twenty eleven child theme.
 * How do I increase the spacing on the “recent posts section” found on the right
   bar?
 * At the moment, it looks too cluttered because the vertical line by line gap is
   way too little.
 * – Recent post 1
    – Recent post 2 – Recent post 3
 * I would like to change to spacing of about 8-10 pixels.
 * – Recent post 1
 * – Recent post 2
 * – Recent post 3
 * so that the gap is more obvious.
 * Thanks for any advice!
 * Paul

 * Add to the bottom of stylsheet in use:
 *     ```
       .widget_recent_entries ul li {
       margin-bottom: 10px;
       }
       ```
   
 * Adjust the 10px as desired.
