Who's in Love with Yellow, Grey, and Blue?

A customer ordered our "Love You For Always" baby Wall Quote Sticker today.  Her color choices were Warm Grey and Yellow!  That's when it dawned on me.... "What an AWESOME color combination!!"  Are you in love with the ever popular color combination of Yellow, Grey and Blue.... in clothes and in ROOM DECOR?!

So I had to put together some images so you all could see!  Above would be the Warm Grey and Yellow on a navy blue wall.   And below is the Warm Grey and Deep Blue combination on a yellow wall.  The Warm Grey would probably show up best on a darker wall but we do have a Storm Grey color on hand that would work great on a pastel colored wall.  The Storm Grey is about the same color as the Metallic Silver but without the metallic part.

 

Another awesome thing with these colors.....  They are gender neutral!  Go ahead and decorate that nursery before the baby arrives!

Will Wall Stickers Work In My Bathroom?

Will Wall Stickers work in my Bathroom?  Will the moisture effect how long they stay on? 

YES, you can apply wall stickers or decals to your bathroom wall!  And... you can even apply them around your shower area as shown above.  The Funky Circle Wall Stickers shown in the bathroom above have been up for almost a year without any peeling or loose stickers.

Will the moisture effect the wall stickers?  The key is to make sure the surface is CLEAN and DRY at application.  Once you have a solid "stick", you are good to go.

The bathroom wall shown is also textured.  DIY textured by yours truly =) so some spots got a little rough.  In those rough areas, I had to smooth down a sticker a time or 2 to help the sticker "remember" where it is supposed to be.  Right now, the stickers are all stuck down firmly and we have a nice "fun & funky" bathroom decor!

Using Vinyl Stickers To Decorate An Old Window

Wall Decor Plus More was able to gain access to a bunch of old wooden windows!  We had a grand time decorating one of them up for all to see. 

The wooden frame was painted and then distressed to give it a vintage/antique look.  Next we designed a personalized sticker to fit the 2 ft by 2 ft glass area.  The design is personalized with the family name in gold.  We also coordinated the saying below the photo to highlight "family". 

The photo size displayed here is an 8x10.  There is space to update with a photo with a landscape orientation also and/or a larger photo.  The photo is just taped to the glass but you could get scrapbook corners and apply the photo to the back of the glass.  Another option is placing 2 smaller photos on each side of the large photo but covering up the swirls then too.

We have these windows available for purchase also.  We are not able to ship these.  You may pick up your window or stop and visit Wall Decor Plus More at one of our craft show booths this fall.  We can decorate them up for you ($45); you can purchase the stickers and decorate it yourself ($22), or you can purchase windows as is ($12). This window is approximately 2 ft by 2 ft. We do have one more smaller size also.  Contact us by email walldecorplusmore@goldenwest.net with purchase details.

Wedding and Shower Gift ideas - using Wall Vinyl Stickers

Wall Decor Plus More recently started a collection of designs specifically for tiles.  Tiles make a PERFECT gift - for wedding, anniversary, and so much more!  Personalized wedding tiles are the most popular, featuring the couple's name and wedding date.

Tile designs cost between $12 and $17, depending on size.  Add your $1-$2 for the tile and you have a unique yet affordable gift!
Tiles can be purchased at many home improvement stores like Menards, Lowes, etc.  A customer recently ordered a few tile designs - she had found a stack of tiles leftover from her floor and was going to use them up as gifts!
Generic tiles with quotes like "Bless this Home" and family oriented quotes also make great gifts!

Tiles can also be placed outside - in your rock garden or at the cemetary.  Keep in mind the sticker on the tile may start to curl or peel after a couple years if left outside all the time.

Typical tiles are a square at either 12" x 12" or 16" x 16"; but can also be found in the small 6" x 6" size. 

Decorated tiles can be displayed on a metal rack/stand found at most home decor stores, like Hobby Lobby.  My favorite rack can be used as a stand or, with the legs folded in, can be used to hang the tile on the wall. 



Keep an eye on our Tile Designs page as we will be adding designs on a regular basis.

How to add Wall Vinyl Stickers to outlet covers

Did you know that you can use the same stickers that you decorate your walls with to add zing to your outlet covers and light switch covers?  YES!  Here are a few photos showing how we used some leftover Zebra Stripes Stickers to jazz up an outlet cover.

  1. Cut your sticker piece to fit the outlet cover.  A little larger or extra won't hurt as you will trim up later.

 

2. Peel the backing off your sticker and apply to the outlet cover.  3. Then peel the top tape layer off the sticker.

  Here is what it will look like after you applied the sticker to the outlet cover.

4. Last you need to use an Exacto knife or blade to trim the pieces off the plug-in openings and where ever there is extra.  Smooth everything down, especially around the edges and there you are...

Ta-Da!  So FUN!

Mailbox or House Number Decal Sticker

Here's another Maibox Decal recently added to Wall Decor Plus More's Mailbox page. 

 

This Decal Sticker is perfect for those who don't want to advertise their name, as it features your address only.  The Postal Service does ask that you have some marking on your mailbox so the carrier can have verification of the residence.

I can picture this Framed Mailbox Sticker in white (or Beige), applied to a dark vintage type/ distressed board, then hung with chains to be used as your House Number sign. 

The basic size of this Mailbox Decal should work perfect on your house newpaper box as a house number also.

Our Mailbox decals are made with Outdoor Glossy vinyl material designed to withstand the outdoor elements for 10+ years.  This is different material than we use for our Wall Stickers.

Wall Vinyl Growth Chart - updated to feet

Wall Decor Plus More's wall vinyl growth charts have a new look!  To make application easier, we have changed all our growth charts to measuring in feet instead of inches.  No more of those TINY little inch marks to deal with - YEAH! =)  The growth chart still has the same amount of marks so each inch of your child's growth can still be tracked.  The red spots, in the photo featuring our cowboy growth chart, are an example of the 1" polka dots that you can purchase with your chart.  The dots can be wrote on with a Sharpie marker - be sure to choose a light color for your 1" polka dots so your writing is visible.  The 1" dots are available on the Growth Chart page also.  Quite a few of our growth charts automatically come with age arrows.  The age arrows are about 4" in length so they do not work for all spaces.

Vintage Victorian Floral Wall Sticker Pattern - New item!

Here's why I LOVE custom orders!...  My customers have such AWESOME ideas!  The NEW vintage floral wall sticker pattern is a request from a customer.  We took the design "live" on our website so everyone can use this SUPER idea!  Vintage Floral Wall Stickers!! They come in an 11 piece set where each floral pattern is 11" x 15" approximately.

Here is the actual item as it will arrive:

The up and down spacing is perfect for an 8 foot wall.  The design shown above is approximately 78" in height.  To fill a entire wall, just cut the sticker apart, keeping the up and down spacing intact, and evenly distribute the rows on your available wall space. 

With the room photo that the customer shared, she spent about 4 hours on installation with a little over 2 sets of vintage flower wall stickers.  The smoother the surface, the easier and faster installation will be.  The customer applied these wall stickers to typical orange peel textured walls.  An absolutely gorgeous nursery just waiting for the new baby to arrive!!

DIY Rock "Engraving" - using a Vinyl Sticker Stencil

We recently did some experimenting on rocks - a DIY engraving using a vinyl sticker stencil and spray paint.  I have to say we are quite pleased with the results!

First, we made a stencil using regular wall vinyl stickers.  To make this work we needed to have as many pieces connecting as possible.  The little inner pieces had to be applied individually.  Pictured is the slide-show effect of how it is done.
~ Clean and dry the surface of the rock to remove dirt, ect.
~ Then peel the sticker off the backing paper as you apply it to the rock.  The smoother your rock surface the better, but you will not be able to get a perfect application.  The vinyl sticker is not too sticky that you can't pull up and redo places.
~ Next you have to place all the inner pieces - like the middle of the "e" in Ymker.

~ Then you will need to protect the rest of the rock from overspray.  Marian used garbage bags in the photos, but we used paper towels on ours.
~ Spray paint the stenciled design.  Use as little paint as possible to prevent drips.  This is the part that is not perfect since the sticker is not perfectly adhered to the surface.  Some spots will not have a defined line - since this is outside on a rock and generally viewed from a distant this imperfection is not very noticeable.
~ Now you can peel off the stencil sticker and the tiny middle pieces.
~ After the paint has dried you will want to spray the rock with a clear coat polyurethane to protect it from fading.  This clear coat should be reapplied each year.
~ As you can see, this is not a "cut & dried" or simple process.  The whole thing will require patience and maybe an extra hand for asisstance.  But the end result is SO much cheaper than rock engraving and is well worth your efforts!

We would love to design a stencil for your rock! Since each rock is unique, we don't have predesigned ones available for sale.  Contact us via email: walldecorplusmore@goldenwest.net with sizing and ideas for a custom design and prices for your rock stencil.

Family Wall Sticker Quote ~ custom-designed decal

"the family that prays together stays together"  This was the wall sticker quote that was requested by a local woman recently.  She had her family together for a photo shoot and was making a wall arrangement with all the new photos.

When we receive custom order requests, we generally make up 2-3 options for the customer to view and pick from.  For this lady, she picked out the above font and layout right away.  A couple weeks later, we were working on another wall sticker quote (pictured below) for her.  We showed her 3 different fonts/layouts and one was using the same font as the "family prays.." sticker.  I got a kick out her - she was drawn immediately to the same font even though she didn't realize it was the same one we had used in the last wall sticker quote.  I love it when a customer knows what they like!

All in all, she had some neat quote ideas and the final result was AMAZING!

Custom-made Monkey Wall Stickers for Bathroom

Monkey Decor is so much fun, especially in a bathroom!  We had the privilege of custom-designing a bunch of wall stickers for a local lady who had just completed a home remodel/addition. 

One of the spots was the girls' bathroom.  She already had the monkey shower curtain so we took pictures of the monkeys on the curtain and designed a set of monkeys to coordinate.  It was a lot of fun and turned out SO cute!  There is a monkey hanging off a branch on each side of the mirror.  The girls liked the quote "Relax, Soak, Enjoy" so we applied that quote along the top above the branch.  To fill in the rest of the wall space, we made a smaller version (largest one at 6") of our Wall Circle Stickers.  We used our Chocolate Brown, Beige, and Celadon (sage) Green colors for the wall circles.

If you are looking for custom-designed wall stickers, let us know!  We enjoy hearing what customer's are looking for!  We can be contacted by email: walldecorplusmore@goldenwest.net.

Repurposed Drawer Bottoms - Mom/Grandma Sticker Quote

I had to share this last-minute item I made for the craft show tomorrow! 

Recently we bought new dressers for some of the children's rooms.  The old dressers were not a real high quality and you know how things last with children... not so well always!  Or is just my children?  Anyway, since I am so "Dutch" and don't like to throw away what I might use someday - I kept some of the drawers.  One of the drawer bottoms had come all the way out which gave me the idea to apply a Wall Sticker Quote to it!  I had my hubby rip all the rest of the drawer bottoms out.

Since it's Mother's Day soon and I am trying to "clean up", I made use of the drawer bottoms sitting around.  The one pictured above is my favorite and may end up at Mom's house if it doesn't sell (don't tell her!).

The drawer bottoms were stapled together in places.  Since this drawer bottom showed, on the front, the ripped out markings, I added a distressed look to it.  I used a hammer to add more nicks; then I sanded all the edges down.  Don't you love it?!  Ok, maybe it's just me....  I usually screw 3-4 things up before I get one effect that I like! 

I also have one featured below with a Family Subway Art sticker.  This sticker can be found on our Family Wall Sayings page, sized at 24" x 10" for $13 or 36" x 15" for $38.

Mother's Day gifts ~ "Say it with Love"

Mother's Day is fast approaching.  I believe this may be the first year I have thought about Mother's Day gifts over a week in advance instead of the day before!  Maybe because we are preparing for a craft show this week..?  Yeah, that's why; so I can't pat myself on the back after all. =)

So our craft show is this week Saturday, May 5th in Parkston, SD at the Pony Creek Steakhouse from 9AM til Noon.  The photo above shows a couple of the items we will have on display and for sale that day. 
More great Mother's Day gift ideas:

     2.  Wall Sticker quote for her photo area.  There is an abundance of Family Wall Quotes available.
