Application tips for Wall Vinyl Stickers - More Options

Here are some more options to keep in mind as you are applying Wall Vinyl Stickers from Wall Decor Plus More.  Our Wall Stickers come in  Large Circles (most popular), Large Rounded Squares, Hearts, Stars, Funky Circles, and Funky Rounded Squares.  The ones that can be most problematic are the large stickers in the circles and rounded squares.

A customer noted that she used a Bone Folder .  Be sure to choose one that has a straight side.
      
You could use this on the back, sticky part after you remove the backing.  And/or you can use it to smooth/rub the sticker firmly on the wall.

You want to be sure, once the backing is off, that the sticker doesn't fold and stick together.  And secondly, do NOT stretch and tug the sticker.  The wall vinyl sticker is easily stretched, will lose its shape and cause bubbles or wrinkles.

Another option for application: painter's tape.  This method would be ideal for the rounded squares.  Be sure to use painter's tape that is less tacky allowing for easier removal.  Take a long piece of tape and adhere to your wall sticker shape - all the way across from top to bottom - while the backing is still on and lying on a flat smooth surface.  Next, tape the shape to the wall.  While holding the piece of tape straight, remove the backing.  The tape will keep the shape straight and eliminate a chance of stretching the wall vinyl.  Once the wall sticker shape is firmly adhered to the wall, peel the tape off.  Peel gently so that you do not remove the shape from the wall.

New Kitchen Wall Decor - a great snowy day project

Here we are again in the middle of winter... LOTS of snow... and plenty of snow days!  Well, I kind of enjoy them!  As long as everyone is safe and sound, that is!  We usually use our snow days for something different - different routine - for sure, sleeping in, etc.  So here is what I did on a recent snow day:

NEW Kitchen Wall Decor:

My 3rd Grader with her "wonderful" reading skills, did a first read-through, "Never trust a skinny crook."  Yep, that will work too =). 

This wall saying assuages my guilt at this horrible time of year when I am supposed to be losing weight and hating every minute of it!

This was the larger size of this Kitchen Wall Saying - 20"H x 16"W

It doesn't show in the photo, but I have a apple/basket/birdhouse border at the top of the wall.  The red matched perfectly with the red in the border!

The walls in my kitchen are textured boards.  Since the walls are rough, it was a little trickier to apply this wall saying.  Basically, the rougher the surface, the more patience you need at application.  So I have a few tiny spots that didn't adhere properly or may have gotten a little stretched.  But they don't show and I am positive it will not fall down. 

In this spot, I will be testing how easily it is to clean.  I don't have a hood above my stove, so I know this wall area can get splattered or greasy quite easily.  But this vinyl is washable, so no worries there.  I will just need to be careful not to hook a loose spot.
