@Braden-Hallett I see a bee

@Braden-Hallett A bee? The shape looks like it could perhaps be a fly (with the big eyes) but the stripes on the body makes it definitely read as a bee. This is really cute! I love a good round logo You could have a little custom rubber stamp made for this on Etsy.

Georgios Christopoulos

@Braden-Hallett yes, a bee is what first comes in mind.I would consider making the bee "break"the circle in some way, if that it something that appeals to you.

Hi @Braden-Hallett, I see a Big B with a little bee, but if I squint, I see the word “Boo”

Nyrryl Cadiz

@Braden-Hallett maybe you can remove the letter B.

I've always wanted a rubber stamp for this kind of thing and I'd never thought of using etsy! Thank you

Just have the actual little Bee guy? I suppose as long as I had my name under/beside it it'd work well!

Thanks everyone! It is indeed a Bee But one never knows when what I see won'e be what others see, lol

It looks like a bee to me.
I like the fact that the logo is not a closed circle. I learned in a class that open circles give the impression that you are open and flexible with clients.
I think it’s cute and easy to remember. Black is elegant for stationery and goes with everything. You can make a nice round seal or stamp. I like it!

That's a deep dive for sure! I have a hard time thinking about art in that way. It brings me back to English class where profs would wax eloquent about how "classic english novel 'X'" had a laundry list of deeper meanings. Kinda like listening to someone try and psychoanalyze another person if you get what I mean.

But if open circles do give that impression, then hooray !

@Braden-Hallett Quick question, I saw that someone mentioned just having the bee. What were your thoughts for having both the "B" and the bee?

both the "B" and the bee

Like, how do I feel about the logo as it is right now?

jaepereira

@Braden-Hallett like what were your thoughts when you made it with the B and the bee? Like why both?

Nest to the B or the bee? The thing on the right looks like a bee. If thats what you were tryna communicate that's perfect. I would say the comp is a little awkward since there are two objects and your eye bounces between them weird. I think its a little off also because the logo seems to be divided in half. Maybe moving one object to a third would work beter, maybe consolidating both the Bee and the B into one object could solve the other problem as well. I dont know I'm not great a graphic design, so take what i say with a grain of salt I guess. I do really like the style and the circle thing you have going there. I can't wait to see the finished product! Hope this helps!

ah! Cool My nickname is just "B" and I like Bees. I felt just a "B" in a circle was boring, so I wanted a bee in there too.

I think you're right! Things could be balanced a tad better

IMO, it would be better to have a single object as a logo, else the two will fight for space.

Have you considered the idea that the bee's wings looks like the letter 'B'? A lowercase cursive 'b' could be tweaked to look like a cute bee.

I agree with the idea to include your name with the logo. McDonald's, Apple and Adobe used to have both name and icon on packaging until they figured their brand was popular enought to be just icon.
