I like your ideas for a board I don't have one at the moment.

I have a wooden stand painted with magnetic paint and my laminated pics have thin magnet sheets on back atTached with double sided tape. I can rearrange and change any time. Have prices i can change also. I have another board that is velcro. My laminated pictures can be reaaranged too. I have tried light weight picture frames and clear art envelopes, they come in dfferent sizes. I have a variety of choices for situations and conditions. i look for artist easels at second hand shops and repaint colorful if needed. I may have a vinyl banner made of favorites as i still loose pics occasionally to rain even when laminated. Most pics are 4x6 or larger. Big is better. Sometimes i use a hand painted board for cheek art. Happy painting to all! I am continually trying new ways to display my pics.

The models love having something to look at and I have something to use as a guide since I am just starting to document my own work. I recently went to a fair and the face painter had made a display board "book" by taking 16 x 20 inch poster frames with plexiglass (that are available at Dollartree or framing stores) and staggering them on a rack. The rack of boards was at the outer edge of her canopy. Each board had photos/designs in exact size with each design numbered and cost range grouped together. She also had a small lamenated 8 x 10 sheet with the designs numbered as a guide for painting at her workstation.

They stick into the ground or can attach with a bungee cord to any stand. Then I use large foam board pices and use fun paperclip binders to attach it. On them I am like everyone elese I have learned that you need different boards for different places so I started the photos either photo copied or printed out at local store with a price attatched and I laminated them. Then on the boards I used the photo corners for scrapbooking this way you can switch them out for different events very easily the ones not in use put in a binder at your table for people to look at. It is a little time consuming at first but it is worth it in the long run you never know what kind of weather you are going to have. I am going to do the disclaimer at my table for what kind of paints i use and so on that is a great idea! OH and I bought a mirror that stands on its own so the kids can watch and see after ,I have had to many kids break my hand held ones. I always have issues with my water keeping it clean and warm gonna try some of the other ideas for that too Thanks Teresa One thing i did and really works well is I bought the large,metal wreath holder stands that people use for cemeterys.

I use 4 x 6 photos. I purchase those inexpensive photo albums that have black pages with a thin plastic film that you slide your photos into. I take the albums apart and mount the black pages on my poster-sized, black foam board with mounting tape. Whenever I want to change my photo, I just slide it out of the top of the photo page and slide in a new one. Easy! I change my pictures a lot. I use 4 x 6 photos.

I thought if I pick up a very large wooden picture frame (with out the glass even) place my design on a sturdy poster and put it in the frame . I am an artist so I thought to paint my own logo at the top and place the best pictures I have under it. And on my table, I would also get a small picture frame and print of my logo with my details on it,showing proof of insurance.Then layout any promotions next to it for people to pick up.

I change my pictures often, depending on what I am doing, so I only put a sticky on the back of each picture so I can remove them easily, later! Today, I just bought some very colorful 4x6 size albums from the dollar store and I plan on putting my pictures in these and have them out along with my MAIN board for those in line to look through!

I inserted a copy of my designs (very few; remember I'm still learning!) and I keep it on the table where I'm working. It's pretty durable, which is good because the kids love to pick it up and pass it around. I think one toddler even licked it! How he ended up with it, I don't know. It's a good thing I had some sani-wipes! I bought an acrylic, 8 x 11 picture stand from Office Depot for about $5.

I bought a artist easel to set the board on. I also made a smaller version and laminated it also so I can have it by me. Also, each design is number and that way the kids can tell me what number and then I look it up on the small one and paint away. I am also planning to have a board with photos also.
