Seeing Red

Red is such a powerful color. It shows so many emotions and is used often to highlight such things.

Red can symbolize romance, passion, and love. It is so intense because it is also the color of our blood. Red roses are a favorite among lovers and anyone can see why.

Red also is a sign of warning. This color is often used to warn people of impending danger. We seem to see the color red immediately and will pay attention to whatever is written in this color.

With these meanings it is easy to see why red is a great color to use with our vinyl lettering in your home. Your house is full of love so why not highlight that with a romantic wall quote done in our Dark Red. You can create your family monogram using this color to hang as a backsplash to your bed.

In the kitchen you can use our Red to warn the kids that the stove might be hot or not to make a mess. Create a quote such as Stove Might Be Hot. Little things like this will be noticed and heeded.

Take some time to use red in your home. It is a great color!

Photo Collage With Wall Words

Create a gorgeous collage in any of your rooms with our wall words, some photos, and an array of frames. You can use our wall words to explain what is in the picture, as the picture, and on the picture. There are so many ways to arrange these that you can have a collage for every room.

You can hange several family photos and pick a wall quote to apply around them. Get creative and have the vinyl lettering zig zag around the pictures too.

Use a great variety of frames to hang your pictures then add in various wall quotes around some of the pictures for a great collage that is also a great conversation area. Use the quotes that are inspirational or just descriptive.

Take some of your whimsical frames and actually frame our vinyl lettering. You can do a family monogram, family name, or just power words such as Love or Laugh.
All of these put together will make a gorgeous collage that everyone will talk about and love. Add some of your own creativity to make it all your own.

Decorate Your Stairs

Here is another great idea for our wall words. Decorate the risers of your stairs with our wall quotes. This allows you to add something well needed to that empty space going up the stairs. People will definately stop and stare.

So what should you put in that minimal space? A wall quote would be perfect. You can install one to two words on each riser going up the staircase. Choose a font and color that goes with the style of your room. Make this even more fun by choosing an inspirational quote such as "Wherever you go, go with all of your heart."

Another option would be to simply install inspirational words. For instance, if you have 10 risers, leave the first and last one blank. Now apply Love, Peace, Hope, Courage, Serenity, Happy, Dream, Live. You will feel the positive energy everytime you travel up the stairway.

If you have anything other than carpet on your stairs, you need our wall decals for your risers.

Decorate a Flower Pot

We love to have potted plants and flowers inside our house. You have so many choices when choosing a pot but most people go with something neutral; brown, terra cotta, gray. This can be so boring though. However if you choose a bright yellow pot to match those coordinating pillows on the couch then what do you do if you decide to change those pillows to a lime green?

Add some flair to your pot with our vinyl graphics. Try applying a fun quote small enough to encircle the pot in one of your room's colors. Next time you want a change, choose one of our vinyl graphics in another one of your colors. There are so many options that you may feel overwhelmed!

Take of our wall words and decorate the rim of the pot. You will be surprised at all of the compliments it will bring. For an extremely large potted plant, you can put one of your favorite wall quotes on the wall behind it then do a coordinating color in some wall graphics on the pot itself.

Lots of options, you just have to dream them up.

Rainy Spring Days

Rainy spring days are the perfect time to knock off the winter dust and add something new and fresh to your walls. Take a look at our vinyl graphics catalog for some inspiration. Our wall words will give your area a much needed bounce.

Go through each room of your house and find that area that just seems dreary. Now pick your room color that is the brightest and have a wall monogram done or a vinyl graphic created specifically for that area.

Long hallways??? Add one of our stock vinyl quotes down one side and place a mirror on the other. This will brighten this often forgotten area.

Our vinyl lettering goes in so many places of your home that you may actually run out of wall space!

Shades of Yellow

The color yellow always invokes warmth and happiness. Many thoughts come to mind when yellow is brought up: sunshine, bananas, smiley faces. Yellow is such a fun lively color that you need to use it somewhere in your home.

A child's room may be your first thought. This is a great place since we feel a little more freedom to do vibrant colors here. You could put some wall words up in yellow or farm animals or just polka dots.

There are other rooms that could benefit from yellow. The laundry room is usually a smaller room with no windows. Yellow font would brighten this space. Bathrooms done in rubber duckies would be ideal too. Liven your game room with yellow vinyl lettering. There are so many places you can use this wonderful color.

We offer several shades of yellow so you can be as vivid or muted as you want. We have a darker Golden Yellow, Light Yellow, then a brighter Brimstone Yellow. Mix up your font to achieve varying shades too. Try putting Orange with the Golden Yellow to darken it a bit or Lime Tree Green with the Brimstone Yellow to electrify the font.

No matter what shade, everyone needs yellow in their home. It is good for the spirit!

Vinyl Lettering in the Bathroom

Sometimes the bathrooms of our homes and offices get left out when time to redecorate. This is actually a great place to put our wall words. Here are some ideas for quick decor for the privacy of your bathroom:

  • Apply a wall quote on the wall directly across from the toilet. Make this something interesting to read.
  • Wrap one of our wall quotes around the border of your mirror. Or make up your own.
  • Place a vinyl graphic on the toilet lid or on the tank (this is great for a child's bathroom). A rubber duckie is great.
  • Install bubbles around the top of your shower stall in that blank wall space.
  • Create a bathroom sign to be applied on the door so your guests will know where to go when nature calls.

Layering Vinyl Letters





Another great thing about vinyl lettering is that it can be layered to give some amazing effects. You can choose from a variety of styles but make sure to use several colors to make it really jump out.

Here are some that we have done for our clients:

Nursery Room Baby Monograms

As a new mother you will want to decorate your baby's room with a theme that you have chosen carefully. Maybe you decide on a jungle theme or a princess theme or even a farm animal theme. After painting the walls the color of your theme, you will most likely find some great pictures to hang as well. Add in some figurines, toys, and bedding and you might think the room is complete.


However, there is one thing you have forgotten...personalize this gorgeous new room. This should definately include a coordinating wall monogram that should be applied over your new baby's bed. This wall decal can be created in a font that fits the style of your new decor whether it is elegant or fun. You could also choose to do your baby's full name in vinyl lettering instead.


Another item that you should apply to your baby's wall is the alphabet and numbers. Your infant will spend a lot of time in his or her new room, make use of this time by giving them something educational to look at. Even though they may not learn the letters and numbers for several years, it won't hurt for them to gaze at these daily.

The baby's room can be as fancy or fun as you want to make it. Just remember that our vinyl graphics are not permanent so you can change them to go along with the growth of your child.

Decorate Your Tween's Room


As our little girls grow up they hit various stages in life. The Tween stage is so very important in building their character. Help your little lady mature by allowing her to choose some vinyl graphics to decorate her room.


Start off with a personalized wall monogram. She can pick the colors and the font to make it all her own. Our vinyl monograms look great installed behind the headboard of the bed or as the focal point of the largest wall in her bedroom.

Next choose some girly stuff to accent the monogram in other places of the room. Let her pick from our catalog or come up with her own. Creativity is a must for your tween's room. Letting her know that she can do this according to her own style is vital to her self esteem. Installing these vinyl accents together helps strengthen your bond as parent and daughter.

Decorative Children's Growth Charts

Your kids are growing and growing but are you actually keeping up with this very important information? A growth chart is a must for all parents.

Some of you think it is the best thing ever to have your child stand against the wall and you actually mark on your wall or door frame with a "permanent" marker. So what happens if you decide to move? You can't take that door frame with you and the new residents probably don't care how tall your child was at 3 years old.

Our newest vinyl graphics designs are just what you need. We now offer some of the cutest growth charts that you will ever find. Not only do they have the measurements but you can customize them to suit your child's decor. Some of our current designs include jungle scenes and girly bugs. Let us know if you have a different decor that you need some wall lettering for, we can definately make it for you.

The Color Blue


Blue...what a great color to decorate with. We have more things in blue shades than any other. There is cobalt blue, aqua blue, denim blue, turquoise blue, and on and on. So why so many blues? Blue is one of the most popular colors in our culture. It is very calming while reminding us of sky and water. It is so soothing that blue makes a great color for bedrooms (to help you sleep). However it is not recommended for kitchens as it supposedly decreases appetites.


So what can you do with blue with our vinyl...anything. There are so many shades of aqua that you can create a gorgeous watery scene that shows all of the waves and unrest of an ocean or lake. Then there is the sky. Using the rich cobalt blues will give illusion of an evening sky scene that will take your breath away. The great thing about the aquas is that you can blend them with blues and greens to give your vinyl lettering some movement. The cobalts blend very well with purples for a majestic tone. While the denim blues move towards gray so they can be used together to give some umph to your gray wall words.


Take this wall monogram for instance. You can do the Nicholls Family in Traffic Blue then do the large N in Violet to create the sense of royalty.
Or try the Nicholls Family in Light Blue and the N in Mint. This will give an illusion of a watery scene.
No matter what colors you choose, make sure you are creative and matching to your style.

Vinyl Borders

Here is a quick idea of how to really spruce up a room...do a border using our vinyl lettering. This is much better than a wallpaper border because once it is easy to remove when you are ready to redecorate.


The border shown in this picture is in a little boys room that was decorated all in trains. The border includes travel times to various cities.

You can do something like this or create your own. You can do various quotes and include vinyl graphics. Just be creative!

Fonts and Colors

If you have never been to the Fonts and Colors section of our site, then you are missing out on some great info. Here we have listed all of the wall word fonts and vinyl colors that we offer. You can see it all in one glance.

Nothing frustrates me more than to have to actually click on a font then let it load before I can actually see what it will look like. We offer 75 different styles of font for your wall quotes. Sometimes just glancing at the font types will give you some creativity. You might see Chocolate Box and realize that font would look great in your kitchen or that Alpha Smoke would be so cool in your child's bedroom.

We currently offer 35 shades of vinyl. We have all of these shown on the Fonts and Colors page and have tried to make them as true to the correct color as possible. Please keep in mind that all monitors are different. What you are seeing is probably different from what we see on our monitor. So some color variation may occur.

With great wall decor font and amazing vinyl colors, you can personalize all of your space.

Other Office Applications for Wall Words

Now that you have your personal office decorated, how about dolling up other vital work areas. Some quick ideas are:

  • Use wall words as directions for coworkers (example: "Ask for Assistance With Copier" that can be applied right behind the copy machine).
  • Add wall words for reminders (example: "Turn off lights as you leave")
  • Apply a large tree to one wall in the break room. Adhere a picture of each employee to the end of each limb. This will help create a single workforce.
  • Line the hallways at work with various vinyl decals and lettering to keep your employees inspired. Color always energizes.

As the boss, it is your job to keep your employees happy and motivated. Check out our site, www.mywalldecals.com, for more ideas.

Personalize Your Office with Wall Words

An office is usually very neutral with no frills and definately no color. Whether you have your own personal office or simply a cubicle, you need to make this daily living space warm and comfy.

Since this is work, you don't want to do anything permanent so our wall words are perfect. Here are some ideas:

  • Apply an motivational message on the wall that you look at the most. This will keep you going positive each day.
  • Hang pictures of your loved ones and have their names done in vinyl to apply under each frame. Great conversation pieces!
  • Use our vinyl lettering to help you get organized with labels (i.e. Daily Reports Here, Daily To Do Lists, etc).
  • Show your peers that you are energized by decorating for each holiday. Nothing fancy but simple hearts on your window for Valentine's Day, Merry Christmas written on your door, etc.

These are just a few suggestions. Let us know how else you have used wall words in your office!

Vinyl Graphics and Trade Shows

If your business sets up displays at trade shows, then you must read this post. When you are trying to sell your business and its wares at a trade show, you must repeatedly display your business name, brand names, and logos throughout your booth.



Start this off by having several of your company logos recreated using our vinyl decals in appropriate sizes for your booth. You will need to install these wherever you see a blank space in your booth. The backs of your display cabinets are ideal. The tops of all your counters need to have your logo. The more you display this image, the more it will stick in a person's mind.

To help promote the brand names that you are selling, have these created with our vinyl lettering. They don't have to be made very large. You only need them big enough that a potential client will notice the brand name when they walk up to this product on display in your booth. They need to automatically know what brand you are selling.

If you want to give credit to someone for their work on your trade show displays (like artwork done, installation completed, etc) have a small acrylic plaque created with silver lettering with their name. You can then place this small plaque next to the artwork.

Trade shows are there for you to sell your company and its products. Make sure that everyone that walks by remembers you.

Valentine's Day Decorations

Valentine's Day is a little over 2 weeks away. It is time to dress your home and office up with hearts and love.

You will need lots of vinyl hearts in your colors but make sure to include red and pink. Make sure to get various sizes and you can even request hearts that sway and squiggle. You will also need some wall words to go with your hearts. How cool would it be to have all those sayings on the candy hearts created using vinyl lettering??? Make sure to have these created using an assortment of fonts and colors.

Next you get to arrange these where all your friends and family will be able to see. Of course the front door of your home is always a great choice but there are many other spaces in your home that are appropriate too. You can place these wall decals on your refrigerator, blank wall, coat closet door, bedroom windows, and don't forget your childrens' rooms.

Dressing up your office space is always uplifting to fellow employees. You can put this arrangement on your office door/window, on your desk, and your filing cabinet. There is most likely a blank wall in your office that needs some sort of vinyl decor.

So go crazy with Valentine's Day decor with www.mywalldecals.com!

Super Bowl Vinyl Graphics

The Super Bowl is coming up and along with that are the Super Bowl parties. Support your favorite team with wall decals. You can have the name of your team created in a stern font such as Paterdoster or have it done in the same font that the team sports on their uniforms. Also select the team's colors for your vinyl lettering. Have a football and helmet created in vinyl to hang with your team's name.

Take the team name and football stuff and install this in various places of the party. The front door is the best place as this will greet your visitors. The wall behind the TV is a great as well as any other blank wall in your party room. The table that holds all of that yummy Super Bowl food needs some vinyl decals too. You can have a large team name created for the centerpiece and then smaller footballs to place around the food bowls.

Not going to a party??? You can still support your team. Install your team name on the back of your car window. Make sure to request it to be done in reverse so you can place it on the inside of your window. At work, you can take smaller versions of the name and memorabilia to install around your desk and on your office door.

Since all of this is temporary, you can remove everything after the game.

Musical Wall Words and Decals

January is typically an uneventful month. There are no big holidays after the new year, in fact everyone is coming down off of the December holidays. Depression tends to set in for some while others just want to see spring arrive.

This is the perfect month to cheer up your home. Music is a wonderful way to make your blank wall spunky. We have a great variety of musical notes and symbols for you to create your own dramatic space.

You can choose a music wall decal that includes everything already set up on a staff with all the notes in the right place. You can even choose to have it created in two different colors other than the traditional black.

For a little more wow factor, try our assortment of music note vinyl decals. These can be sprawled out within a defined area on your wall. Place them in different directions to really spruce it up. Then stretch your design out more linear with some of the vinyl symbols. For a really cool design, place these assorted wall decals in a spiral pattern. Add in a few embellishments and you have a cheerful wall decal.

Wedding Decor

We talked about how you can use monograms to make your wedding and reception more elegant and the envy of all brides. There is so much more you can use vinyl lettering for when it comes to decorating for your wedding.

Every wedding has some sort of theme whether it be based on the music chosen or the love words spoken by the bride and groom. Take that theme and place it into wall words. Using your wedding colors and a really nice font have us make this phrase for you in vinyl. This can be installed above the door that all of your guests will come through. It can also be used on the wall directly behind the person performing the ceremony. Your friends and family will think you took hours to paint this on!

Most love birds have little quotes that they say to each other often such as "I love you Snookums" or "Our love is forever". At the reception, you could have one wall full of these quotes. Choose various fonts and colors and create your own word collage.

An alternative is to have your guests RSVP and include a thought about the upcoming union of the bride and groom. Take your favorite ones and have those done in vinyl lettering. Your guests will enjoy reading your wall words and trying to figure out who said what.

Remember that our wedding wall words are temporary so you don't have to worry about permanent damage to your reception hall or wedding chapel.

Wall Monograms


I talked the other day about how you can use our vinyl monograms to jazz up your wedding. Our wall words can be used in most applications so let's talk wall monograms for your home.

Everyone has that large space on some wall that you can't figure out what to put. One of the best, easiest, and least expensive decor items would be vinyl lettering. This is your home so personalize it with your monogram. You can choose the color of font that goes best with your room color. Since our lettering is removable, if you change room decor the wall decal can be changed too. So no need to worry about anything being too permanent.
With all of the choices we offer in font style, you can really create an amazing wall monogram to suit your space. If you have more of an elegant room then choose something in a script font. For that funky space of whispy colors and mismatched furnishings choose some wild like the Curlz font or Peeps font. For that stoic space, like your office, choose the Stonehenge.

Wedding Monograms

Hello Brides! This post is for you. Are you looking for a way to make your wedding and reception completely unique and totally representative of you??? Vinyl lettering is perfect for weddings. It is versatile, temporary, inexpensive, and completely customizable.

As a new bride you will want to show off your new last name. Monograms are the best way to do this. Start off by placing your new monogram onto all of the champagne glasses. You can choose the silver, etched glass look. Just make sure to measure your glasses so you don't get the vinyl monogram too big.

Instead of using name cards for the reception tables, how about having everyones' names creating in an elegant vinyl that can be applied to the back of each seat. You won't have to worry about name cards getting moved.

The dance floor is where you and your guests will spend a lot of time after the wedding. Placing a huge vinyl monograms in the center of the dance floor would be amazing. You can even have a quote done in smaller lettering to encircle the wedding monogram. If you have a live band, you can even get a monogram to place on the base drum.

Everyone will enjoy the evening and wonder how you were able to personalize so many things at your reception. I will have more wedding ideas coming soon!
