items My top recommendations if you’re just starting out on painting banners!
Probably the most costly item but definitely an investment! This helps so much to project onto your banner on the wall to trace and get everything even! You may need an HDMI adapter if you’re projecting from your lap top to the projector! I have a Ma...
Projectors
The best brush to do lettering!! It holds a lot more paint than a typical paint brush! This brand and elf’s eyeshadow brush is the best!
Essential Brushes
I use this specifically for my banners! There is cheaper options at Walmart but they are thinner and more flimsy! With this one from Lowe’s, it’s more sturdy and thicker! Which is perfect for banner painting so the paint doesn’t make the paper wet an...
Project Source Paper 3-ft x 140-ft Drop Cloth
This is the best paint! I always get the packs and then get the big bottles of white and black! You will run through white and black paint more than anything! I also like to grab a gold paint for extra detail!
Apple Barrel
The best markers for outlining! Outlining will make a major difference in your banners! The different color options are a great option! I mainly use white or black paint markers!
Paint Markers in Art Markers & Pens(619)
I use this packaging to put my banners in when delivering to customers or for pick ups! This will protect the banner from ripping and getting messed up! To add a little extra pizazz, top it with a cute ribbon and a thank you card!
ULINE 25 Clear Poly Bags 4x36 Poster Sleeves
You’re going to want to use a tape that doesn’t rope the corners of your banner! Painters tape works best! You can put it directly on the corners of your banner on the wall, or roll it up and place it on the back of the banner on all 4 corners!
Painter's Tape
This brush works best for bordering or for thick lettering!
EcoTools Wonder Cover Complexion Brush
You absolutely need a yard ruler! This is going to help make sure both sides of your banner are straight and even!
Rulers and Yardsticks
Canva will be your BEST FRIEND when making banners! You don’t need Canva Pro either! Any premium items you use will have a Canva watermark but if you are projecting it onto your wall from the projector, it’s super easy to just trace everything and ig...
Canva
Certainly not a need but makes life so much easier! Use the top shelf to store you paint UPSIDE down! Get a cute cup to store your brushes in! And use the other shelves to store you projector, your tape, pencils, adapter, lap top, etc! Makes everythi...
Rolling Storage Cart
This is going to really make a difference in your set up!
Projector Stand
This is the adapter I use! I plug it into my laptop top, then hook up the HDMI cord to the adapter and use the other end of the HDMI cord to hook up into my projector!
