To top it off wall stickers are removable, so if you're renting or decide later that you'd like a change it's as simple as pulling them off and starting again!
So how do you go about installing wall stickers? Well, first start with a clean, dry wall- if the wall is damp or dirty at all then the decorations won't stick as well.
Next, work out how you want to place the decals on the wall. The easiest way to do this is to cut your sheet of wall stickers into their individual pieces - you can do it roughly, as once you've worked out where you want them you'll peel the stickers from their backing.
A simple way to work out where the decals should go is to use masking tape to position the pieces. That way you can get an idea of the final design (stand back a few times and look at it from a distance to make sure you're happy!) before you start sticking it in place.
This is a great step where you can have fun with the kids and let them join in on working out where the stickers should go.
It's important to note that some brands of wall stickers are not reusable, meaning that if you stick them somewhere and decide you don't like it then (while you can remove it) you won't be able to put it somewhere else. Check the instructions in your kit to find out if yours are reusable or not.
Once you've got a nice placement determined, start sticking! Work from one end of your design to the other, and carefully stick each piece using a smoothing tool such as a piece of card or plastic. Ensure you smooth it in the one direction and step back frequently to ensure you're still happy with the design.
Voila! You're beautiful new wall art is finished!
