Re-Decorating – Stop before you spend too much!
Are you like me in the process of re-decorating? Have you spent the past few days, weeks, months trying to think of a really creative way to add some cool statement walls into your design.
Well I think I’m one of the lucky ones as I’ve found a really cool alternative to the typical paint or wallpaper solutions that are the norm.
That’s right I found a solution to adding the wow factor to my walls and it’s not going to cost me the £98 PER ROLL that I my girlfriend was struggling to justify to me, as we tried in vain to pick from a shortlist of rather expensive yet very cool designer wallpapers.
What is it… Designer Wall stickers
That’s right, in one last ditch attempt to find an alternative, I stumbled upon designer wall stickers or wall decals as they are known in America. These are extremely cool, wall stickers made from thin vinyl plastics that have been cut out into patterns or cool graphical shapes and can be easily applied to your walls!
There are a number of pros for me, in particular the main one being that I get bored of looking at the same colours and designs very quickly making these ideal because once you’ve had enough of them, you can simply peel them off the wall again and they won’t leave a single mark! That’s right they are non-destructive and only use their natural static cling to stick to your walls there are no adhesives that will tear off pieces of your plaster or paintwork! This also makes them ideal if your renting an apartment and don’t want to have the landlord to answer to when your eventually moving out!
The other is their price! Some of the coolest and largest designs that I’ve seen cost as little £85.
That’s remarkable cheaper than the 4 rolls of designer wallpaper we would have required equaling just under £400 and that’s without the wallpaper paste, brushes, time!
Time that’s something we all are in short supply of too and applying these beauties certainly won’t take you all weekend to do and you won’t need to get in the professionals as anyone should be able to apply these stickers its really simple. If your stuck or worried you’d have problems just log onto youtube.com and search for “applying wall decals” there are tons of video tutorials that can give you handy hints on how to get them onto your walls in no time!
I’ve been that bowled over by them that I’ve decided to let everyone I can know about them. Hence this article but also I’ve scoured the web and listed all of the best sites to buy these from in my blog. So if your looking for inspiration why don’t you logon and take a look at the gallery too there are tons of new wall stickers to whet your appetites!
