First bulletin board ever:

Time Saving Tips: Background

• Paint background (if allowed) so you don’t have to cover with Paper.• If you do have to cover, tear butcher paper from bottom up to get a clean tear

• Try a color that you can use more than once (black is great)

• After stapling paper, use box knife to trim against frame

• If paper is still in good shape, roll it when you take it down to save and reuse. It’s already the right size.

Time Saving Tips: Wording• Are you faster with die-cut or scissors?

• Save letters to reuse• Glue letters or printed words to paper to make signs, titles, labels ahead of time

• Laminate signs or labels you will use again

• Clip all letters/words to bulletin board elements to store set together for reuse.

Page 5: Art Bulletin boards to Instruct, Engage, & Advocate

Time Saving Tips: Elements

• Use projector to trace big pictures onto posters or paper

• Laminate “generic” elements that you can use again– Crayons, Brayers, other tools or illustrations

• Use good construction paper or scrapbooking paper that won’t fade

• Borders: Overlap, don’t trim

Page 6: Art Bulletin boards to Instruct, Engage, & Advocate

Composition• Sketch an idea before you start assembling• “Crooked enough to look on purpose”• What kind of composition looks good in your artwork?

• Hand-cut letters don’t have to be straight• Use consistent color for unity
