Maggie’s Banners

What started as a little creative outlet has grown into something I’m so proud of! Every single banner you see here is 100% freehand painted and designed by me, no projectors, no stencils, no shortcuts! I’ve been obsessed with lettering for years, and over time, it turned into this colorful side hustle that’s now painted its way into hundreds of apartments, dorms, and celebrations.

Since starting Maggie’s Banners, I’ve created over 300 custom banners — all while being a full-time student. It’s been late nights, lots of paint-stained sweatshirts, and a whole lot of love for what I do. You could say I’m the queen of the side hustle, and I wouldn’t have it any other way!

Behold, the power of the paint brush & networking!

I get/take all my orders through instagram, and have grown primarily through word of mouth!

Just a designer on winter break with an idea! 😆 Thank you all for an amazing (and very busy) 2025! Painting and getting to play a part in so many celebrations and milestones is a true joy! One more semester left in Tigertown, then to big girl world

On occasion I'll pull out the big guns to paint on fabric, and I loved tackling these banners for Clemson Panhellenic!
