How do I install the wall stickers?

Always start with a dry clean wall. If there wall is freshly painted, it is recommended to wait at least 3-4 weeks to let the paint set. There are 2 major types of removable wall stickers: peel and stick and transfer applied vinyl.

Peel and stick installation is as easy as it sounds, simply remove the sticker from its backing and apply to a dry clean wall. This method is generally used for smaller decals.

Transfer applied vinyl is great for large wall stickers or murals. You generally need to apply a clear vinyl sheet on top of the decal, using a credit card or similar to smooth out the bubbles. When this has been done a great trick is to place the decal pieces on the wall using blue-tack or masking tape to make sure you place them where you desire. Then, piece by piece, gently remove the paper backing of each part, smooth the vinyl decal and the transfer on the wall using a credit card or similar to remove any bubbles. Smoothing movements should be from the middle of the sticker and out. Now you need to carefully remove the transfer, ensuring the decal stays on the wall.
Please see each manufacturer’s instructions and disclaimers for more information.

DISCLAIMER: Please note that we cannot take responsibility for damaged walls, if you are unsure about your wall, please test with a small piece of a sticker and leave it on for a few days, then remove. Stickers do not work well in direct sunlight, the adhesive may melt and either fall off or in some cases become permanent.
