How to customize Sidebar color and Sidebar headings background in Thesis WordPress theme

Changing Thesis sidebar colors and sidebar header background colors/font are just easy enough to do. Thesis wordpress theme uses the names sidebar_1 for sidebar 1 and sidebar_2 for sidebar 2 by deafult. The sidebar header is denoted by sidebar h3 in Thesis.  If you wish to give your Thesis theme a unique look, then customizing the sidebar colors will give you that desired look. I have already discussed about how to change Thesis background color, adding images to Thesis background and changing Thesis background border in my previous posts. Now here is the css tweak for changing Thesis sidebar colors and sidebar headers.

Open your Thesis custom file editor and jump to custom.css. Copy the following css code there. You can change the colors anytime as per your choice. I am showing here the code for a 2-column Thesis theme framework. If you have a 3 column thesis template, you can add another line same as below for sidebar_2.

.custom #sidebar_1 {background:#FFFFA0 none repeat scroll 0 0;}
.custom .sidebar h3 {font-weight: bold; color: #FFFFFF; padding: 0px 5px; background: #CC0000;}

You are done making your Thesis theme unique.
