Custom Hand-Painted Banners for Celebrations & Gatherings

A More Personal Way to Mark the Moment

Not everything meaningful belongs on a screen or in a print order.

These hand-painted banners—what I call Brown Bag Banners—are created slowly and intentionally, designed to bring a sense of presence to your event.

Whether hung behind a table, across an entryway, or used as a backdrop, they become part of the atmosphere rather than just decoration.

Each piece is painted by hand on contractor paper, giving it an organic texture and softness that photographs beautifully and feels distinctly yours.

Designed for Life’s Gatherings

From once-in-a-lifetime milestones to the quieter celebrations in between, these banners are created to fit seamlessly into your event.

• Graduations

• Birthdays and intimate celebrations

• Welcome home moments

• Baby showers and baptisms

• Family reunions

• Proms and community events

If you have something specific in mind, the design can be tailored to your setting, color palette, and overall tone.

The Process

Thoughtful Beginnings

Custom banners designed to feel personal, artistic, and made for the moment.

We start with your event—what it’s for, how it should feel, and where the banner will live within it.

Composition & Layout

Your design is carefully composed and scaled, then projected to ensure balance and accuracy.

Painted by Hand

Each banner is painted in studio, allowing for subtle variation, movement, and character.

Ready for the Day

Each banner comes with gromments installed (unless specified for none), finished with care and ready to hang, photograph, and be remembered.

What are Brown Bag Banners?

Brown Bag Banners are my signature approach to custom banners—painted on contractor paper for a raw, understated finish that feels both elevated and unpretentious.

They’re intentionally imperfect in the best way: soft edges, visible brushwork, and a sense that they were made by hand—because they were.

For Those Who Notice the Details

If you’re drawn to original artwork, texture, and pieces that feel considered, this is for you.

These banners pair especially well with thoughtfully designed gatherings, wedding-related events, and curated spaces.

They’re often kept, folded away, laminated, or even framed after the event—becoming more than something temporary.
