How to Create Inspirational Posters

You can hang up an inspirational poster to encourage you to do your best.

Inspirational posters can motivate you when you are feeling discouraged, depressed or lacking the energy to pursue your goals. You can purchase an inspirational poster at a poster shop or specialty store, but you are often limited to the selection of posters that are for sale. One solution is to create your own inspirational posters using craft materials. This will allow you to customize your poster to suit your particular needs and desires.

Things You'll Need

• Card stock
• Scissors
• 2-inch lettering stencil
• Art tape
• Acrylic paint
• Paintbrush
• Colored pencils

Instructions

1. Cut out a rectangle from a sheet of card stock that measures 24-inches high and 36-inches long.

2. Tape lettering stencils onto the lower half of the rectangle using art tape. Use the letters that you will need for your inspirational words.

3. Paint over the stencils with acrylic paint. Allow the paint to dry completely.

4. Remove the stencils from the poster.

5. Draw or paint a symbolic image onto the upper half of the poster using acrylic paint and colored pencils. Allow the paint to dry completely before displaying your inspirational poster in your home or office.
