My new bookstore logo!

[shanmar]

I posted this over on the old boards, but I think it got lost so I'll post it again.

I need lots of affirmation!

We will make a few adjustments in the font color (darker) and "bookseller" will be smaller and black.

GothicGyrl is working on another one which we will use in the educational area.

So what do you think?

[K&Rs Mom]

I really like it - it's like a bouquet of books, and who wouldn't want that? I especially like the "reflection" part.

[Amy in Orlando]

I love it! The colors are wonderful.

[Tammyla]

It looks like, art, a vase of flowers and books all in one.:D

[Dawn E]

I love it! I also love the slogan. I showed the logo to Dh and he too thought it looked great. Is your bookstore going to be online, too?

[GothicGyrl]

GothicGyrl swears she is working. I think that's what they call it anyway. Shan--I'm having trouble not making it too cutesy, no matter what I do the bear either comes out mean or cute. :) But, have no fear, I CAN do this and I will.

Just gotta make a less mean bear.

[Kate CA]

Oh, that is a lot of fun! How did you come up with that? It is so creative!

Warmly,
Kate

The colors are fun and set the tone perfectly! Great job!

Well, cutesy is better than mean! LOL. I can't wait to see it!

Looks great!
I would definitely shop there:)

[Tammy in Germany]

That's awesome! :D

[Jenileigh]

I really like this one!

[Kristafish]

Looks great!! :D

I'm working on not making it so cluttered. It'll probably be outlined instead of colored. Outlining is simply just that--it looks unfinished, but it isn't. Make sense?

Since your normal logo is basic and simplistic, I don't want to overpower that. So now I have a better idea to make this outlined instead of "finished".

Back to work (which I swear I'm doing).

[GreenKitty]

I love it! Very COOL!

[WTMCassandra]

I really, really like this. Nice colors, eye-catching, variations in the font to go with the theme . . . I think it's a real winner. And think of how cool it will be on crisp, glossy, white bookmarks that you could give out with each purchase!

I'm excited for you. One of my secret dreams is a bookstore one day.

[Cadam]

Which slogan did you go with?

[Old Dominion Heather]

I like it!

[Peek a Boo]

wow! I'm impressed!
can I open a Texas branch? :-D

[Chels~]

Very Cool!

[shanmar]

For the curriculum side of things, we will use SheilaZ's suggestion of "Pandemonium Books: Where reading goes wild", but I think I will change it to "Where learning goes wild".

So, SheilaZ, email me and I will give you a $25 gift certificate to use when our store is open!!!

Meanwhile go look at our "press" pictures (http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/shanmar/)we took today.

I love it, Shanmar!
Sort of a Tree of Knowledge feel to it.

Can't wait to see Toni's version!

[Katia]

I love it! I would shop there.

[shanmar]

Peek-a-boo, I will keep you in mind...if we don't go broke and have go into hiding with all our books, coffee and curriculum!

[gardenschooler]

Positively gorgeous! It's so exciting to see your bookstore be 'born'.
