Full Circle Bookstore– Social Media Design

This week in PR Publications I was asked to design four different social media pieces for a business of my choice. I decided to design for Full Circle Bookstore, a hole-in-the-wall book shop in Oklahoma City. It’s one of my favorite places to visit– the atmosphere and selection are everything a bookstore should be. After doing some quick research I realized they don’t have many design elements present on their social media pages, so I figured the lack of design (combined with my love for the store) would make Full Circle a good subject for this project.

I ended up designing four different pieces: a Facebook cover and graphic, a Twitter header, and an Instagram post. The Facebook elements go together in that they promote summer reading; the Twitter header and Instagram post are both generic pieces that can be used any time of year.

I enjoyed using Canva over the course of this week. It’s easy to make quality-looking designs without too much time and effort, and there are several options under every design choice (text, layout, color, etc.). Canva helped me create designs that complement the atmosphere and attitude of Full Circle that I wouldn’t have been able to even think of without the program.
