we painted my sons walls a sky blue and these applicators were perfect , i couldnt cover it all in one area so i place the hippo near the door on small wall space and birdies over closet door. it was fun and i appreciated the ease at which the applications came off of the paper and onto the wall. Even though they were sticky, They werent so sticky as to get wrinkled or stick to eachother and not come apart. took me approx 90 minutes to apply. Looked great!
