Step-by-Step Guide to Creating Your Graduation Display Board

  1. Start with the Base – Your Tri-Fold Project Board

The Tri-Fold Black Kraft Project Board is the perfect starting point. It’s large enough at 36” x 48” to give you plenty of room to work with. The black background offers a sleek, stylish foundation that makes your photos and text stand out. Plus, the tri-fold design adds extra structure to your display, making it look polished and professional.

  1. Print and Prepare Your Photos

Now, gather those photos that tell the story of your graduate’s journey. Whether they’re snapshots from graduation day, favorite school moments, or candid shots with friends and family, they’ll look amazing on your display board.

For the best print quality, use iClicknPrint to print your photos right from the comfort of your home. Print them on Brilliant Premium High Gloss Photo Paper for a glossy finish that will make your pictures pop. Once your photos are printed, cut them out and arrange them on your tri-fold board however you like whether it’s a neat grid, a timeline, or a freeform collage.

 

  1. Add Bold Text and Fun Quotes

No graduation display is complete without a few inspiring words! Use Alpha Numeric Gold Glitter Characters to spell out important phrases like “Class of 2025” or the graduate’s name. You can even add motivational quotes such as “Dream Big!” or “Go Graduate!” The gold glitter letters will add sparkle and excitement to your display, drawing the eye to key parts of the board.

  1. Personalize with Fun Shapes and Colors

If you really want to make your board stand out, get creative with shapes and colors. Add some Neon Assorted Poster Shapes to highlight special areas or frame your photos. These shapes come in bright, eye-catching colors, including neon green, and can be used to point to important sections or add extra flair.

In the image, vibrant arrows guide the viewer’s eye to the most important quotes, while hearts in playful colors surround the photos. These shapes aren’t just decorative—they also help emphasize key moments and messages, making your board visually dynamic.

  1. Make Your Graduation Day Extra Special

A homemade graduation display board isn’t just a fun craft project it’s a personal keepsake that will remind the graduate of their accomplishments for years to come. Using materials like the Tri-Fold Black Project Board, Alpha Numeric Gold Glitter Characters, and Brilliant Premium High Gloss Photo Paper, you can create a display that feels uniquely yours.

One of the best things about using an extra-large poster board like this is its size and sturdiness. It’s designed to stand on its own, so you won’t need any additional props to make your display look great. Whether you choose to fill the board with cherished memories, inspirational quotes, or a touch of sparkle, it will definitely bring that extra flair to your graduation celebration. So, gather your materials, let your creativity flow, and watch your graduation display board take center stage at the party!
