Vinyl Lettering Offers Multiple Home Dcor Options
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.
Home Dcor Tiles. There arent many things more beautiful than an Italian ceramic tile, except maybe an Italian ceramic tile that has been turned into a beautiful home dcor accessory by adding some vinyl lettering to it. Take a 12 ceramic tile (available at most home improvement stores) and add to it a decorative tile lettering kit from Wall Stamps. and you have yourself a beautiful home decor piece that is personalized to match your personality and home decor scheme. Simply apply the vinyl lettering to the tile, apply a light clear coat to seal it, and youve got a great home dcor accessory.
Wall Words & Wall Lettering. Not only does vinyl lettering help you transform a simple tile into a beautiful dcor piece, but it can also be applied to walls to give any room in your home a personalized touch. Vinyl wall lettering, or Wall Words as referred to by some creates the same effect as hand-painted stencils, but is faster, less expensive, and a lot less stressful. Moreover, you achieve a hand-painted stenciled look, achieving all of the benefits without any of the mess, and hassles of painting. Aside from that, its not permanent ” meaning that you can remove it whenever youd like without damaging your walls. Therefore, its a great solutions for renters because its easy to remove without having to paint your walls, or do any repairs. If you calculate your time, cost of paint, margin for error, and cleanup and supplies, vinyl lettering is a better alternative to stenciling.
Decorative Rustic Signboards. One common complaint with wall lettering is that people love it so much, they want to take it with them when they move. While it is inexpensive enough to purchase a new kit, many opt to use the lettering kits to create custom signboards instead. These custom signs can be taken with you wherever you may roam. They also make a fun craft project for childrens and womens groups, and make a terrific Fathers Day present. Give dad a custom sign about fishing, or something that reminds him how much hes loved. A small rustic wooden sign is a great desk piece for the office, and is not expensive to create, but will be a invaluable treasure for any father. To create a sign, simply grab a board (make sure the size of board will fit nicely with the lettering kit. Its sometimes helpful to buy the board first so that you know what size to order the lettering in. However, many online retailers, such as Wall Stamps, offer complete kits that include the board, lettering, and application tool. These kits are nice because you paint the board any color youd like, so you can match your dcor perfectly. Then apply the lettering, and voila! You have a beautiful home dcor piece that you will absolutely love.
Decorative Blocks. One of the fun ways to decorate for the holidays is to create decorative blocks. Decorative blocks are wooden blocks that are painted, and have vinyl letters attached to them. Theyre then stacked to spell words like Merry Christmas or Happy Easter. These blocks are a fun way to create unique home dcor for the holidays, and theyre a fun craft for the whole family to get involved in. Not to mention, you can usually pick up some scrap pieces of wood, or buy some at a home improvement store for an inexpensive craft, and unique holiday dcor item.
With all of these options for the utilization of vinyl lettering in home dcor, those with even the most discerning tastes are sure to find something they love. After all, whats not to love about this versatile, easy, and inexpensive decorating medium.
