From today, I’m going to make shouts on Thesis customization tutorials frequently to stay tuned to customize your Thesis theme to give it a new look. In this shout, I’m going to share the tutorial on how to style the thesis sidebar widget background and border.

So, let me show a tutorial on styling the thesis sidebar widget background and border.
