I can’t say that I have created anything to celebrate graduation. However, I can’t wait to see what others have made.

I’m not sure what I would make for a graduate. Maybe, a tumbler, a shirt, a keychain, a tote… There’s certainly a lot of possibilities. At this point, I would just like to make something! Iykyk.

My son will graduate this month. I’ve made a graduation stole and yard sign for him. I also did his graduation announcements Now I’m starting on keychains to add to his thank you cards and for those coming to graduation. We don’t have any family in town since we moved out of state. I want to make sure and show appreciation for them traveling to support him.

I designed a gift card/money holder card to send to my great nephew for his high school graduation. I only wish I could be there to hand it to him in person!

We’ve known Emma since she was 3 years old and we were hired as Santa and Mrs Claus to come to their house. They are 3 houses away from us. We have visited them every year since then and have become a member of their large family. We spent the next 6 years ducking every time we saw her so she wouldn’t see Santa living a few houses down. She and I have become so close that I call her MY Girl. She is graduating next week and I wanted to make her something. I made Emma and her mom Tshirts. I also made her parents fans as the graduation ceremony is outside in the Arizona heat. We are stopping by tonight to give them their gifts.

[Personnia_Rawls]

Love them.

My granddaughter graduated last week. I made us custom shirts to support her. I have also had orders for custom family graduation shirts. I’ve made fans as well for my family and others.

It’s a great way to celebrate the graduate.

I’m trying to load some pictures but they keep failing. They are so cute too. I may try again later or on a different post to load them.

Update* I was able to add pictures. This is me and my granddaughter. The stole and the shorts are custom

[Samantha_Bryant]

Congratulations to your granddaughter! That sounds fantastic! The fans are always good for graduation. I bet yours look amazing.

It’s weird your images won’t load. Are you trying to post from inside the Loklik app or the community website in your browser?

So I have saw a senior design of signage for year and senior night boards that I can not wait to design for my sons as they approach their graduation a long time from now lol! But, in the idea of making this for them I do believe I may advertise and promote these for the next years to come for sale!

Something like this and either use the sports number or the year of graduation!

I have just done simple shirts in the past.

I can’t find the others I did with htv but these are sublimation to match the school mascot of a tiger

Nice cafts!

I’ve never crafted anything for a graduation as they are not a thing in Spain. I don’t think in Europe, neither.

As far as I know, there are only some different anecdotical tradition in Scandinavia, maybe the UK, and only for University graduations, if there are any. And they are very formal and academic, private, without decorations nor show.

I don’t think this kind of ceremonies are very common besides some countries in America, but I think America is only present in this community by USA’s members and @Ideart_Studio from Dominican Republic. I guess it may be also common in Australia. And in a different way, which I’d love to know, in Asia and Africa.

But that took me to want to know about that. Id’ love to know if our fellow crafters from other countries celebrates this kind of events and how they are

The only thing related to this, I can think of, is decorating the annual class picture, crafting a frame or a gift card to hold it. That I do have made a couple of them a long time ago when my nephew was a child. He also had a Graduation Ceremony in High School, as some kind of new tradition, note the contradition. The School provided them with the necessary.

It is also common here an official promotion diploma (orla) with official separate graduates pics, made by the University for that matter. But it is provided by the University itself and framed soberly to display on offices’ walls. In the last years, it is beginning to be usual seing this kind of tradition in private schools and high schools, but it is not common.

So, please, tell us, I’ love to know. Are graduations a thing in your country?
