1. Fabric Sign Guys 🎨 (Custom Fabric Signage)

Fabric Sign Guys excels in producing high-quality fabric signs, backdrops, and banners tailored to your church's needs. We use this company when ordering step-and-repeat banners, table cloths, tents, and crowd control. The fabric really is impressive compared to normal vinyl banners!

✅ Things we love about Fabric Sign Guys:

  • Exceptional Customer Service – If we have any issues they are extremely prompt and helpful in fixing whatever is wrong.

  • Quick Turnaround – Almost all of our orders are processed and shipped in 24 hours! This makes those last-minute orders achievable!

  • High-Quality Products – The materials and printing quality we received were consistent with their positive feedback and reviews. 

🔍 Final Take: If you're seeking reliable and visually appealing signage for your events, Fabric Sign Guys is our top choice.

2. GotPrint 🖨️ (Affordable Printing Services)

GotPrint offers a range of printing services, including business cards, brochures, and promotional materials, at competitive prices.​ We use them for business cards, postcards, flyers, tracts, door hangers, and more!

✅ Pros:

  • Cost-Effective – Provides some of the lowest prices in the industry.

  • Quick Turnaround – Features options of regular printing times and rushed printing times. Then they also allow upgraded shipping options. Works great when you're in a pinch!

❌ Cons:

  • Not many custom sizes – I personally love being able to type in a custom print size. GotPrint currently doesn't offer this option.

🔍 Final Take: For budget-conscious ministries needing basic printing services, GotPrint can be a great option.

3. Threadfellows 👕 (Custom-Branded Apparel)

🔗 threadfellows.com (our referral code gives you 15% off!)

Threadfellows specializes in custom-branded apparel, offering a variety of clothing options to promote unity and brand recognition within your ministry.​ We absolutely love the branding identity and refer all our ministry firiends and small business owners to this company quite often!

✅ Pros:

  • Wide Selection – Offers a diverse range of apparel suitable for various occasions.​

  • High Quality – Every purchase we have made with them has been exceptional quality. We love that they use well-recognized brands!

❌ Cons:

  • Slow Processing Times – Customers have reported significant delays in proofing and delivery processes. You'll want to plan well in advance for your product delivery.

🔍 Final Take: While Threadfellows offers a variety of apparel options, it's important to consider potential delays and communication challenges when planning your orders.​

Milweb1 🎨 (Custom Vinyl Banners)

Milweb1 is one of those hidden gems that not a lot of people know about. They specialize in producing high-quality vinyl banners tailored to your church's needs.

✅ Pros:

  • High-Quality Products – They print on high quality materials and the colors of the banners are vibrant. ​

  • Quick Turnaround – Orders are processed and shipped promptly, with free overnight shipping on orders over $200. They are FAST!

  • Excellent Customer Service – I have had nothing but positive experiences with the responsive and helpful support team.

❌ Cons:

  • Limited Design Services – While basic design services are offered, they work best with pre-designed projects.

🔍 Final Take: If you're looking for reliable and visually appealing signage for your events, Milweb1 is a commendable choice.​
