In this video, I show you my simple DIY method using an iPad and the TracingMat app to create protest bold and legible posters signs quickly.
I’m not a professional artist or sign maker—just someone who wants their message to be seen. With this technique, you can display large, clean text on your iPad screen, place a sheet of poster paper on top, and trace your words in minutes. No rulers, no printers, no handwriting anxiety.
Whether you’re heading to a march, rally, or local action, this quick tip can help you make signs that stand out.
