How to Celebrate a Graduate

It’s graduation season! A BIG congratulations to the Class of 2021!

If you are the parent of a soon-to-be graduate, you may be brainstorming ways to show your support and pride. Here are a couple tips to make sure you make the most of graduation season!

Show Them Off

Your graduate has put in a lot of hard work to finish school, so it’s important to show how proud you are of them! An extremely popular method of doing so is putting up yard signs to help your friends and neighbors celebrate them with you.

There are customizable 18” x 12” or 24” x 18” yard signs made of corrugated plastic and wire H-stakes that you can put on your front lawn. With the vibrant full-color printing that we offer, you can customize your sign with your graduate’s photo, “class of” graphics, or even the school they will be attending next. Our yard signs are affordable and printed in-house, meaning you don’t have to stress about long turnover times. They’re also pressure resistant and will defy crushing, wrapping, and punctures with normal usage. They’re completely waterproof as well, making them great for extended outdoor use! Many people like to display two yard signs in their yard for their graduates: one for graduating and one for where they will be going next.

The yard signs are also very handy if you are planning on throwing a graduation party because it can help your guests locate where the party is hosted with ease.

Party Time!

Another popular method of celebration is to throw a graduation party for your senior. Usually held in the weeks after graduation, it’s a great way to come together with friends and family to show your grad love and support. Consider decorating your party space with school-specific decor (especially for high school graduates, using the colors of the college they will be attending is very fitting). If you are looking to make a photo wall or to fill an empty wall with a decorative statement, customized step and repeats, 8x8 backdrops, or vinyl banners are all excellent solutions. Step and repeats and backdrops are great because they can act as both decorational pieces and as photo backdrops. Just customize it with your own image or design file or with our easy designer tool that has preset templates to use. Vinyl banners are a great way to fill an empty space with a large design of your choice. As an extra activity during your party, you can offer markers for people to sign your step and repeat, backdrop, or banner and your graduate can hold onto it forever as a keepsake!

Whichever ways you decide to celebrate your new graduate, we hope you have a fun and memorable time! If there’s any way we can help, visit us at bannernprint.com or give us a call at 1-888-874-4003!
