Vinyl Lettering – A New Trend In Home Decorating

Thursday, November 20th, 2008

If youve ever been into an upscale restaurant or hotel, chances are youve seen a logo, or some type of decorative quote painted onto a wall. This practice, known as stenciling has been a popular form on expression within the interior design arena for quite some time now, but has usually been reserved for upscale establishments and homes because its so expensive to accomplish, until recently.

Over the last year or so, achieving a hand-painted stenciled look has become so much easier, and very inexpensive by using matte vinyl lettering, which has sometimes been referred to as Wall Words. These decorative sayings are cut out of matte vinyl, but they dont look like vinyl once applied to your walls ” they actually look like theyre painted on stencils, yet are removable without damaging your walls.

Having a custom stenciled look is no longer reserved for those who can afford to have the wall lettering painted on, but is available to even those who are seeking to decorate on a modest budget. Wall Words and custom wall lettering are now available to anyone wanting to achieve a hand stenciled look ” at literally a fraction of the cost.

Some people may wonder how vinyl lettering has anything to do with home dcor and interior design. Some may even say its a bit tacky. However, in my experience those people are quickly won over once they use decorative vinyl lettering one time in their home. Once youve used it, seen its beauty and how creative you can be in using it to create dcor and crafts, its no wonder to see why its quickly catching on as one of the faster growing trends in interior decoration.

Back in yonder days, vinyl lettering was used for mostly business and industrial applications, such as banners, vehicle, and other signage ” including boat and RV lettering. While vinyl is still used in those applications, its moved into the mainstream of home dcor as a viable alternative to hand painted stenciling. I assume that this is because of the versatility and ability to create unique and inspiring home dcor to match any taste or dcor. For those desiring to create personalized home dcor, vinyl lettering offers many different options.
