Welcome to the Download Area!

This is the area where we store files, pdfs, program examples and other materials which you can download and use.

All of the files in the download area are .pdf file format to use with Acrobat Reader that everyone can download for free regardless if you are using a PC or Mac (or Linux) computer.

To use these files, you'll first have to download (save) them to your computer. If you don't have Acrobat Reader you can download from www.download.com

Click any link below to browse blueprints and backdrops per category or get descriptions of the most popular downloads or most recent additions. From the file description page, a single click will start the download process.

Blueprints

All the blueprints can be used as the example given or you can substitute any building or theme as you wish. They are there to give you an easy format for a successful presentation or just to give you new ideas. Good luck with putting together your display and please share your results with the rest of us!!

Backdrops

Here you have a backdrop design for your inspiration and reference to use instead of that plain wall behind the table ;^) There are three different illustrations, each with a different purpose:

  • One complete backdrop in color
  • One complete backdrop in black and white (download the file and take it to your nearest print shop)
  • One with the design elements

The color backdrop is intended to be used as an example of colors that can be used or to print as is. If you wish to print it please download the file and bring it to your nearest print shop such as FedEx Office, Kinko's etc. and have it printed in the size you need. Easy way to replace that drab beige wall behind your beautiful display you have put together! The black and white illustration is also to print and use as is but as a base for your design. Here you have the freedom to experiment with paint, textiles, vinyls and different textures of paper and other arts and crafts elements you would like to use to fill in the different sections/elements with. Great way to start having fun with arts and crafts! The last illustration is with the main design elements as cut outs (for the more experienced "arts and crafter") to blow up and print out to whatever scale you wish and to use to fabricate your own design with. Here you have the freedom to use the elements and make your own design with whatever materials you wish. Hope you enjoy and have fun with them!!
