How to Get One Dollar Color Classroom Posters

I recently shared my Free Heart Earth Classroom Poster. If you are looking for printing options, I optimized the poster for using Staples and a size 11 x 17 color print. In fact, you can use Staples and this size print to make ANY poster for your classroom.

It is addicting to make customized posters for your classroom! I see a lot of possibilities for integrating custom QR codes, inspirational quotes, and images of student work (and students) into a classroom.

What is a must for a poster in your classroom?

P.S. Staples has the coupon “May20off” to save 20% off your copy order during the month of May 2013!

  Hi Julie,
  
  The resolution and quality of your original image makes a big difference. You can “stretch” the image but it will likely not look very good printed. You can search for images with higher quality using this method: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I_qtR1-Qvc4
  
  (This isn’t always true, but…) usually the larger the file size of the image, the better quality it might be when printed.
  
  Good luck!

Thanks so much for this idea! There are several things I’ve wanted to make posters of, and my new school doesn’t have a poster printer, so this is awesome!

I love this idea. Decorating our classrooms can get so expensive! Thank you!
