Vinyl on the Wall

Here are some pictures from a customer who applied vinyl to her kitchen walls above the cabinets.  She used six "Be" phrases that come from one of our church leaders, President Hinckley.

The letters are around 8 inches high.  This was definitely a learning experience for me to cut out this vinyl!  It's a little tricky!  But I think it turned out looking really nice.  I'm excited to put some vinyl on our walls in our new house that we recently moved into...I just have to decide what and where.

Family Name on the wall

Pictured below is the first piece of vinyl I ever put up in my home! I ordered this a few years ago, and I have loved having it. In beige vinyl was our last name and over it in black was "Home is where our story begins". We always had lots of compliments on it.
I recently took this vinyl off as we are preparing to sell our house and I wanted to both de-personalize things as well as put a fresh coat of paint on. I'm happy to report that it was a cinch to take off and the vinyl left no marks at all on the wall. I also took off the vinyl pictured below (my kids' names) which I had cut myself, and it was also equally easy. So, while I can't make any guarantees, my personal experience thus far is that vinyl comes easily off the wall without any damage to the paint or wall.

Flashcard Font

I have a cute flashcard font that I used to put my kids' names on the wall in their bedroom. Here are some pictures:

This next picture is fuzzy, but you can see how his name was over his bed.
It's a fun way to decorate.

Here are a few examples from my home of putting vinyl on the wall. In this first one the idea and vinyl came from my friend (and vinyl mentor) Kathy. I even copied her use of the frames!! Thank-you! The frames come from Ikea as unfinished wood with mirrors. You can take out the mirrors, paint them, add ribbon or fabric (I used a staple gun to attach the fabric strips). I think they only cost about $2 at Ikea.
I thought this saying below was perfect for my baby's jungle-themed room. At least we hope he sleeps there!
This quote below is in the Papyrus font (quite popular) and is a nice little reminder for our bedroom.

Alphabet Letters

Here is a really fun idea for putting vinyl on the wall. My brother and sister-in-law put up these alphabet picture letters around their baby's room. How cute!!! They painted the stripes themselves, and then put a letter at the top of each stripe. I thought it turned out darling. Obviously each letter is quite different and they ranged in size from 5-8 inches tall. This is the Zoo font that I have.

You can also see here their magnet board that says "BOSTON" and "Oh The Places You'll Go".
