 * Hi all, my site
    [http://www.jennifersando.com/test/testsite/](http://www.jennifersando.com/test/testsite/)
   is based on the Pool theme and I can’t work out how I can separate the header/
   content / sidebar / footer with nice clean borders like this site: [http://jace.seriom.com/blog/](http://jace.seriom.com/blog/)
 * My css code is a bit messy and so I am stuck 🙁

 * You can try giving your sidebar a border-left, but that has a problem in that
   if your main content is longer than your sidebar content, then the border stops.
   Some people utilize the “faux-columns” outlined at [A List Apart](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/css-help-with-borders/www.alistapart.com/articles/fauxcolumns/?output_format=md)
   to maintain uniform lengthed columns. But truthfully, I think your design is 
   crisper than the one you linked to.

 * Or just give `#noticias` a right border with a little margin rather than the 
   sidebar.
