I love this vinyl set BUT in order to make it look like it was painted on the wall, you need to trim the letters closer around the edges, then apply to the wall. If not, it will look like a big, cheap sticker on your wall, even though the background of the letters is clear vinyl. I used a pair of scissors to cut closer to the edges, then an x-acto blade to cut the empty spaces inside the letters (ex. inside the "B" "e's" "o's", etc.). It looks amazing once it's cut out correctly.

Pros: Looks painted when applied to wall
Cons: Trimming around the letters takes a LONG time
