To Splite Header in Two Different Parts:

3.Uncheck the "Expand the Widget'' if it is checked 

4.Search for the following code in the template                                                                           

#header-wrapper {
  width:960px;
  margin:0 auto 10px;
  border:1px solid $bordercolor;
  }

#header-inner {
  background-position: center;
  margin-left: auto;
  margin-right: auto;
}

#header {
  margin: 5px;
  border: 1px solid $bordercolor;
  text-align: center;
  color:$pagetitlecolor;
}

#header h1 {
  margin:5px 5px 0;
  padding:15px 20px .25em;
  line-height:1.2em;
  text-transform:uppercase;
  letter-spacing:.2em;
  font: $pagetitlefont;
}

#header a {
  color:$pagetitlecolor;
  text-decoration:none;
  }

#header a:hover {
  color:$pagetitlecolor;
  }

#header .description {
  margin:0 5px 5px;
  padding:0 20px 15px;
  max-width:700px;
  text-transform:uppercase;
  letter-spacing:.2em;
  line-height: 1.4em;
  font: $descriptionfont;
  color: $descriptioncolor;
}

#header img {
  margin-$startSide: auto;
  margin-$endSide: auto;
}

Important:Due to different template coding the code above might be different.For example#header might be .header so look for the related code

5.Now after finding the code,replace the entire code with the following code

/*------Header-----*/ 
#header-wrapper{ 
    width: 960px; 
    color: #000; 
    margin: 30px auto 0; 
    padding: 0px; 
    overflow: hidden; 
} 
#header-inner { 
    background-position: left; 
    background-repeat: no; 
} 
.headerleft h1, .headerleft h1 a,.headerleft h1 a:hover,.headerleft h1 a:visited { 
    color: #BF0100; 
    font-size: 36px; 
    font-family: 'Ultra', serif, Arial; 
    font-weight: bold; 
    margin: 0; 
    padding: 0px 0 5px 0; 
    text-decoration: none; 
      text-shadow: 6px 6px 4px #ccc; 
       line-height:1.2em; 
}

.headerleft h3 {
    font-family: arial, tahoma,  Sans-Serif;
    font-weight: normal;
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
}

.headerleft .description { 
        color:  #3B3B3B; 
    font:bold 12px Helvetica, arial,  sans-serif; 
    margin: 0px; 
    padding: 0 0 20px 0; 
        text-shadow: 4px 4px 6px #ccc; 
}

.headerleft {
         width: 450px;
         float: left;
         margin: 0;
         padding: 0;
         height:80px;
}
.headerright {
         width: 468px;
         height:80px;
         float: right;
         margin: 0px;
         padding:1px 0 0 0;
 
}

6.After Replacing the code search for the following code,if you could not find the code then look for the similar code which should include div section of your header                                                              

<div id='header-wrapper'> 
      <b:section class='header' id='header' maxwidgets='1' showaddelement='no'> 
<b:widget id='Header1' locked='true' title=' My Blogger Lab  (Header)' type='Header'/>
</b:section>

Rememeber: the code must contain <b:section and </b:section> tags to make the whole process work

7.After you find the code above or similar code replace the entire code with the following code 

                                                                  

<div id='header-wrapper'>
<div class='headerleft'>
      <b:section class='headerleft' id='headerleft' maxwidgets='1' showaddelement='no'> 

<b:widget id='Header1' locked='true' title='My Blogger Lab (Header)' type='Header'/>

</b:section>
</div>

<div class='headerright'>
<b:section class='headerright' id='headerright' maxwidgets='1' showaddelement='yes'>
</b:section>
</div>

8.Now press the Save Now button and to save the whole process and then visit layout page to see the difference
