To add a border around a list item image on Squarespace you need to add some custom code.

To do this, head to Website > Pages > Website Tools > Custom CSS and you need to add the following code:

.user-items-list-carousel__media-inner {

border: 2px solid hsl(225, 87%, 9%);

border-radius: 10px !important;

box-shadow: 0 4px 8px 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2), 0 6px 20px 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.19) !important;

margin: 18px !important;

}

This code tells Squarespace that you’re targeting your list images and that you want to add a border.

You can play around with the border radius, shadow and margin to get the look you’re after, but the above is how I have it set on my website.

To see this code in action just head to the by Crawford homepage and my list carousel, with borders around the images, is right there.
