6 Steps for the Perfect Hipster Logo

Ever wanted to make your own logo? Feel like masking your true identity in a sea of hipster'esq artwork?  Well your wait is over and you won't have to hire that expensive graphic designer to make it happen.

With the Hipster Logo Design Guide, you'll cover all the requisite visual cues to ensure that your product looks like it came straight off a shelf from a Dust Bowl-era general store. To start, you'll need to pick a badge-the "seal of approval" variety gives off an especially nice state fair prizewinner vibe. Slap a banner on top, sprinkle in some vaguely related symbols (or, hell, even totally unrelated ones), and throw in some buzzwords. You're not just selling donuts, you're selling authentic, artisanal, handcrafted donuts. Actually, you're purveying them. 

As a designer I have always liked these little guides since they not only poke fun at a current trend but also give other designers some ideas for future projects.  Maybe it will be for a hipster wannabe or the genuine article, you never know.
