Our Services
WHEAT PASTING activations
Wheat pasting is a high-impact street advertising method that places large posters in busy urban areas. It’s a cost-effective way to promote events, products, or campaigns with a bold, authentic edge—perfect for brands looking to connect with real culture on the ground.
SIDEWALK STENCIL activations
Sidewalk stenciling turns everyday footpaths into eye-catching ad space using eco-friendly paint or chalk. Ideal for short-term campaigns, it grabs attention in high-traffic areas and delivers your message in a fun, unexpected way.
Custom Posters
We offer custom poster installations for interior spaces like offices, restaurants, bars, shops, and markets. Whether it's for brand visuals, art pieces, or ambient design, we tailor each install to fit the space
Wheat pasting and stencil impact
At Sidewalk Tattoos, we specialize in two of the most impactful forms of street-level marketing: wheat pasting posters and sidewalk stencils. Both formats deliver bold visibility where it matters most—on the streets, in front of real people, in the middle of their daily routines. We don’t just create ads, we create moments of discovery that spark curiosity, engagement, and conversation.
Sidewalk stencils are one of our signature tools. With custom-cut designs ranging from 6” x 60” up to 48” x 48”, our stencils are built to stand out in high-traffic areas. Placed directly onto sidewalks and pavements with eco-friendly, temporary marking paint, these visuals are impossible to miss. They guide foot traffic, reinforce branding, and create a breadcrumb trail effect that leads people straight to your event, pop-up, or storefront.
Wheat pasting, on the other hand, gives brands a canvas that’s larger-than-life. Our posters range from 24” x 36” to 48” x 72”, transforming city walls into storyboards for your brand. From single-block takeovers to massive citywide campaigns, our wheat pasting is precise, creative, and always positioned in the neighborhoods that matter most for your audience.
What makes Sidewalk Tattoos unique is how we combine these two formats into fully integrated campaigns. By weaving together wheat paste visuals with strategic stencil placements, we ensure your brand connects with people from every angle—above eye level and beneath their feet. Each campaign is mapped, documented, and executed with attention to detail that guarantees your message not only lands but resonates. For inquiries, reach us at info@sidewalktattoos.com

Whether your brand is launching in New York, Los Angeles, Paris, London, or Tokyo, our team has the reach and expertise to deliver unforgettable campaigns on a global scale.

Sidewalk Tattoos is a guerrilla marketing agency that turns city streets into living canvases. We specialize in wheat pasting posters and sidewalk stencils, blending art, advertising, and culture into campaigns that people can’t ignore.

What makes your marketing different from traditional advertising?

Nationwide and international campaigns: Every state, every city, and any country worldwide.
How do wheat pasting and stencils actually work? Wheat pasting is applying posters with eco-friendly paste to high-traffic walls, construction sites, and city hot spots.

What sizes do you offer for stencils and posters?
