I’m sure you’ve seen wall stickers at your local store in the home decorating aisle or crafting section. There are other companies, besides Modern Wall Graphics the Original Wall Decal Store, out there offering cute designs to accent and DIY decorate your home or kids rooms and you may have been excited to try them on your wall. But, I’m willing to guess that you were disappointed with the result, and not because of the design you chose or where you placed it, but, because a few days or weeks after you installed it, the sticker started to peel up and away from the wall. Even pressing it back down against the wall again didn’t help, right? This is probably because the wall decal you purchased was made of plastic.
Wall Slicks wall decals are not made of plastic, but rather a malleable vinyl that not only adheres well to the wall, but, follows any contours it may have so that the wall sticker almost looks like a painted stencil when finished and not a sticker at all. The vinyl material in Wall Slicks also has a matte finish and that means it won’t look shiny, again helping it blend in with the wall, looking more like it was professionally painted on.
The great thing about Wall Slicks is that once you place it on the wall, it stays there until you are ready to remove it. No peeling away from the wall, ever. Just keep the sheet it comes on along with the clear top sheet and if you ever need to reposition or remove the decal, you’re all set. It’s strong enough to stay put, but, easy enough to take down with no residue left behind. Who could ask for anything more!
Ready to add some color to your home but you don’t know how? Here’s a few tips on color theory to ensure the colors you choose reflect your style and convey just the right mood in your space.
Choose Colors of Equal Intensity
You can mix reds, oranges and yellow’s together easily when the colors are of equal intensity (that means how vibrant they are.) Try poppy, tangerine and marigold! If you want some color but are afraid it will overwhelm or dominate your room, try a more muted shade.
Consult the Color Wheel
Not sure if the colors go together? Look at a color wheel. Shades that are analogous (side by side on the color wheel), are pretty much foolproof together. Ie) Navy, teal and lime green. Want the look to really stand out, complimentary colors (those that are opposite each other on the color wheel) make each color more vibrant. Ie.) Yellow and purple.
Primary Colors Pop
Remember in grade school when you learned that red, yellow and blue are primary colors? Use them together for a striking look, just make sure not to use them all equally. Choose the 2 you like the best and use them the most. Allow the 3rd color to be just in accents.
Colors have Weight
Colors carry visual weight. Try using 2 parts of 1 color in combination with 1 part of another instead of using half of each for a dynamic look. Ie.) true blue and yellow mustard
With over 40 colors of Wall Slicks wall decals to choose from, there’s sure to be color that can turn your space from drab to vibrant, quickly and easily for any DIY decorating project.

Need bathroom decorating ideas? Apartment bathrooms are often small and dark with no windows. Condominium bathrooms often fair no better. If you live in a house you probably have more than one bathroom, and whether they’re large and have lots of window lighting or back to being small and dark, bathrooms are still a decorating challenge.
Wall Slicks wall decals are the answer. These wall decals are thin so they will stick to just about any surface, making them perfect for a bathroom. They are also made with a matte finish. That means that when they are applied to a surface they don’t look like shiny stickers. Instead, the design blends into the surface and looks like it was painted on by a professional, which will give your bathroom a professional interior designer look.
Wall Slicks offers many ideas for your bathroom design. Classic Sea Shell wall decals will give your bathroom a timeless look, and these wall decals come in an assortment of colors from butter to emerald, silver or gold, and everything in between. For a fun whimsical look use the underwater sea life wall decals, complete with waves and sea plants. Speaking of plants, why not turn your bathroom into a beautiful botanical garden? There are many floral wall sticker and plant designs from which to choose.
You can always think do a contemporary modern theme and choose from the several geometric wall stickers available. It’s easy by choosing one bold color, such as red, for the wall decals and accessorizing with only that color throughout the bathroom for a monochromatic look. Or, make it easy by adding a neutral color, such as white or black, in with the bold color for added punch.
If the bathroom is used mainly by your children take a look at the wall decal designs that normally you would use to decorate a child’s bedroom, and instead use them in the bathroom. Or carry the wall decal theme you’re already using in their bedroom on into the bathroom. Nobody ever said you can’t have fun decorating a bathroom!
Wallpaper is a beautiful way to enhance any wall of your home, but, it is such a challenge to install and even less fun to remove! Plus, if you are renting an apartment or staying in a dorm room, wallpaper is just not an option. So, what’s a DIY decorator to do?
Try vinyl wall stickers. You can create hundreds of unique looks that give the feeling of wallpaper, without all the mess using Wall Slicks.

Wall decals offer so much variety and creativity that there’s just no limit to the looks you can create as you layer patterns and colors. See how these Bamboo wall decals create interest to this wall with a few dark green stalks serving as a focal point and the other reeds blending in more with the background in a color that’s a little darker than the wall to create depth.
The Paisley wall decals in this photo create a lovely balance to the wall with a combination of light and dark neutral shades. Could you tell that this was created with wall decals and not wallpaper?

Looking for an easy way to decorate your apartment? Wall decals can be the answer! We know that DIY apartment decorating can have its own unique challenges. First, most apartments are usually on the small side, and secondly a lot of your creativity can be squelched by an unrelenting landlord.
Here’s where wonderful wall decals come in. So easy to apply - just peel and stick - and what’s even better (from your landlord’s perspective) is that they are easy to remove. With wall decals you can create just about any theme, look or mood in your apartment and not violate the landlord’s rules against any kind of permanent interior decorating.
Remember that even where space is limited, walls aren’t - there’s always plenty of wall space. When decorating both the living room and the bed room, choose a wall to be the focal point which makes the rest of the room seem wider and more open, and decorate that with your theme. Paint if you can, but if the landlord prohibits changing his white walls to anything else, never fear. The good news is that Wall Slicks wall stickers come in many different designs and in such a huge variety of colors that you’ll easily find exactly what you need to create the look you want.
The beauty of Wall Slicks wall decals is that they are thin and have a matte finish. The matte finish keeps them from looking like stickers. Instead, when applied they blend into the wall, and the design looks like it was painted on by a professional.
The thinness allows these wall decals to adhere to just about any surface. In small apartments bathrooms and kitchens are notorious for being the rooms that are dull and often dark. Spice up your kitchen and brighten up that bathroom with wall decals. Once you get started with wall decals your creativity will know no bounds, and you’ll have the classiest little apartment in the city.

So you want to go “green” in the nursery? Great idea! Decorating the baby nursery with items that are safe for them and ecologically friendly is good for their health and the environment. Here’s 5 tips to get you started:
Organic Bedding
Start with organic bedding, blankets and quilts for the crib. Babies spend up to 70% of their early life sleeping and playing in the crib, so, make sure the mattress is also non-toxic. Once you’ve chosen the bedding color it is easy to select accents and the color theme for the rest of the nursery décor.
Avoid Particle Board
Avoid any baby furniture created with particle board because it contains formaldehyde a volatile organic compound (VOC). In addition to the wood, be sure the paints or varnish used on the furniture is VOC free. The best way to avoid this would be to find nursery furniture made from sustainable and renewable sources such as bamboo.
Natural Fiber Rug
Choose a natural fiber rug made from bamboo, hemp, cork, or wool and be sure they used environmentally sound dyes for the coloring.
VOC Free Paint
Paint is one of the leading causes for indoor air pollution. Paints release low level toxic emissions into the air for years after application. New VOC free paints solve this problem and come in a variety of colors to match your nursery décor.
Wall Decals
For a special touch to your nursery decorating, try Wall Slicks wall decals, a “green” certified product. The vinyl and adhesive in the wall stickers have no odor or volatile chemical content and come in over 40 colors and come in numerous designs and styles!
Do you want the look of wall stripes in your home, but don’t want to paint or apply wall paper? There is a solution! Vinyl wall stickers can give you the same look without the hassle of paint or the mess of wall paper. If you can peel and stick, you can apply wall decals. Just follow these simple steps and you can easily complete that DIY project and achieve that striped look you’ve always wanted:
Decide on the Color
Depending on the color of your wall and the look you want to achieve, you may or may not have to paint the base wall to start. You can certainly apply your stripes to a white wall, or, consider a monochromatic look with tints or shades of one color such as a dark blue wall with light blue stripes. If your wall is already a color, you could also consider using white stripes.
Determine the Width
Determine the width of the stripes you would like, keeping the proportion of the room in mind. Narrow stripes in a large room will get lost and wide stripes in a small room look out of proportion for the size of the space. Stripes Wall Decals come in 3 sizes: Pinstripes are .5” wide, Medium Stripes are 4” and Wide Stripes are 8”. For your convenience, all stripes are 8 feet tall, the height of a standard wall. Custom sizes are also available. Contact customer service for details.
Keep them Straight
Decorating with stripes requires precision. You definitely want them to end up straight when you are finished. Use a laser level to ensure straight lines as you apply the spacer dots as placeholders to remember where you want to apply each stripe. Complete instructions are included in each package of Wall Slicks wall decals.
