Simply Stunning
These removable wallpaper stickers were simple to apply.  It takes time and patience, but it is not difficult!<br /><br />After painting the bathroom walls (not textured) black, and allowing the paint to dry for a few days, I cut around every sticker, allowing about an inch beyond each design.  Next, with the help of a friend, I held each one up to get an idea of where I wanted each, and layed out a design on the bedroom floor.  Once I decided my layout, it was time to begin.<br /><br /> I started in the middle, at the height of my design, and one by one placed each sticker up.  The pre-cut detailed edges of each flower can easily fold, and stick to other parts of itself, so be careful to hold up as you peel off backing to avoid a mishap like this.  Begin adhering to the wall in the center, and push out toward the edges, pressing air bubbles out.  I used my palm of my hand, washed of course.  No special tool was needed.<br /><br />This process was used for each individual flower sticker, taking care to overlap flowers so the arrangement looked natural.  The stickers adhere so well, that it wasn’t easy to lift the already adhered sticker in order to layer/overlap.  I used a stainless steel drywall tool to lift the delicate edges.  This tool is used to apply and flatten spackle/mud (I don’t know the name of the tool), and its edge is thin, like a knife.  It has a handle and a 5 inch “paddle.”  Imagine a ping pong paddle, but very thin steel, in a rectangular shape.  I tried a plastic version of this tool, but the steel one worked much better.  This tool saved the integrity of the delicate edges.  Just using a fingernail tended to bend the stickers edges, making it difficult to reapply smoothly.  In the case of overlapping a large area of a flower, I did trim excess with a scissor.<br /><br />I’m pleasantly surprised to see that, once applied, the overlaps are not visible.<br /><br />I had a friend, who knows that I myself paint, come over; and he actually got very close, and ran his hand over the wall, while asking, did you paint all this?!  The finished design is absolutely beautiful!  I’m very picky, and I do not have the urge to take them down and paint a design myself, LOL!<br /><br />I do wish I could purchase the vinyl sticker pages, without a design printed, to paint myself, and make my own wallpaper stickers in the future!!!
