Bulletin Board: Grab A Good Book

This project involved creating a bulletin board in the residence hall that would showcase something useful to the residents. It would stay up for a month.  

The reason behind making the bulletin board is a place to put information as well as it being something decorative on the walls of the hall. 

I wanted this one to be about getting a good book. 

This bulletin board uses only printed materials. I planned it by using the measurement of the board and created an InDesign document of the same size. Then I laid out the format of the font and pictures in that document.

I downloaded an image of hands reaching up from iStock and edited it to have an extra on the end that was pink.

Then I created a bookshelf with books above it in InDesign. After that, I wrote the content and then transferred the font and photos to other pages that were letter-sized to print easily. 

And when I cut it out, I overlapped the white spaces between words and letters to make it seemless. After all that, all I had to do was put it up on the board.
