Let’s face it, times are tough, and it’s during these times that some of the things you would love to do are only going to have to wait. Changing your home decor is always one of those things. It does’nt have to be. No I’m not really talking about going out and getting a new sofa on layaway, finding that ideal accessory or using up a lengthy weekend painting.

What if I told you that you could change the look of an entire room for around fifty dollars? Interested?

Here’s the secret, removable vinyl wall decals. It’s a growing trend but a lot of people have never heard of them. So what are they? Well they are not the sticker kits you’ll find in the local hardware mega store that won’t come off unless your willing to take the drywall down with them. They are also not really the stencil kits you will find in arts and craft stores that in no way seem to go on the way you want and can just be covered with multiple coats of paint. The modern vinyl wall decals like those found at Splash Wall Art among others are specifically made for interior wall surfaces and they are removable! They won’t leave residue or damage your walls. They come with a special rubberized adhesive that will allow the decals to stick for up to 3 – 5 years or more and no curling edges and still remain removable. When you decide you want to change your decor you only slip a finger nail under the edge and gradually peel right off. How easy is that.

If you’re wondering how a little decal can change your home decor then you only haven’t seen some of the good wall art that’s out there. We’re talking giant polka dots, branches, six foot high trees, animals of every kind, both realistic and cartoon, giant music notes, palm trees, bamboo, swirls and hoops, you name it and it’s out there. There is also a fantastic selection of colors available so you can make your decals pop off the wall with vivid reds or blues or stick with traditional black silhouettes or a pastel color that blends into your own color scheme. Lets not really forget about wall words as well. Great quotes and phrases that you can put up around your home, whether it be a simple word of welcome or your favorite quote from Shakespeare.

Now for how easy it is to put them on. Ready? First you peel off the backing paper from your decal. Then you apply the decal to the wall along one edge and then apply it to the wall smoothing it out as you go. Then you roll off the transfer paper that the decal is applied to. That’s it, your done.

What you thought there was more? Nope that is it. I don’t know about you but I don’t think wall coverings can get any easier then that

So if you don’t have a lot of time to remodel and you want to save some money but still make some changes to your living environment give wall decals a thought. Give them a try and get your creative juices flowing.
