Wall Decals: Stick It
Posted on Mar 26, 2008 7:00:00 AM  |  By HollyBecker

Paint, wallpaper, window decals, do you like to mark your territory? We've covered wallpaper and window decals over the past few weeks here in Home & Organizing so why not consider wall decals now, also known as giant stickers for adults. You can use them on walls, ceilings, tiles, appliances, windows, shower doors, and even some floors. Best part, they're easy on - easy off, affordable (unless you go custom), and they're very landlord-friendly for those stuck in rentals who have to live with the current wall color - even icky avocado can be perked up with a bold graphic! Wall stickers can be removed without a trace + no harm is done to the walls = you'll get your security deposit back. Liking how that sounds.



With so many perks, let's look at a few of my favorite resources for finding wall decals. If you locate something you like, just click, buy, and stick it!



Real_simple_walldecals



Form and Function based just outside of Stockholm, Sweden carries wall and floor vinyl decals that I find quite interesting -- not something you'd see in the homes of all of your friends so they make for an ultra stylish statement and a cool conversation piece. They have lots of stickers from French decal giant Domestic.



Floral_1



Stick Meon is a small atelier in Australia that I really like because I think the animals Deanna designs are really sweet.



Real_simple_wall_decals



Les Louisettes is a French company that is quite popular in France and parts of Europe. In the US, you can order them from Mortimer Snodgrass based in Montreal who ships all over and are such a pleasure to deal with. I like the idea of putting some on a mirror or on kitchen appliances, don't you?



Real_simple_pop_cling



Pop Cling is super unique, their range is incredible. They are a lot like art for the walls, very modern, urban and fresh. I ordered from them about a year ago and was so pleased with my transaction, they were a delight to work with and shipping was an absolute breeze. Excellent prices and quality, too.



Real_simple_dvider



Dvider is another company to look at. They stock wall stickers but there's a twist because they also carry free standing dividers for rooms that you can adhere decals to if you want to dress them up. Dividers are useful for loft spaces and offices so this is actually a clever product.



Real_simple_beearo



Not everything is vinyl, Beearo makes decals out of wood. Unfortunately they've closed up shop until April since they're currently relocating to Seattle and need to get settled in first, but bookmark them for future reference because once they're up and running you'll love their selection. Don't these look stunning on glass tiles?



Real_simple_design3000



Design 3000 in Germany stocks a lot of decals and wall woods in German. I keep staring at this bed, this flower-as-headboard thing is unexpected and fun. I see lots of DIY ideas for faux headboard using paint, stencils, and wallpaper but a decal like this would be the easiest of the bunch to apply and remove.



Real_simple_harmonie



Think wall graphics are created equal -- whimsical, colorful, and modern? Harmonie Intérieure owned by graphic designer Fabien Barral and his wife Frédérique transform their designs and photographs into some amazing results, some with a slightly vintage look to them.



Bembridge_install_large



I love tile tattoos from Mibo, they're a great way to dress up a blah bath or kitchen. Just over 4 square inches, they are available in a set of six for $16/pack in several colors at 2Jane.



Kmacleod_pencil_zm



These are a break from the norm, a smart collection of transferable drawings by contemporary artists David Shrigley, Kate MacLeod, and Edwina White from Australian company Third Drawer Down. At $15 a sheet you can't go wrong. Available at 2Jane to pre-order for a May '08 delivery.



Real_simple_blik



Blik is pretty huge, they have just about everything so spend some time on their website and see what you can find. They recently collaborated with graphic designer Mel Lim, whom I'm a fan of, to pull together some decals that I think would be beautiful in a kids' room or craft studio. I also love Anise by Ilan Dei for Blik, especially in white against a solid colored wall. Would look super pretty against silver-gray. Click here to see Anise.



Real_simple_ferm



I can't get enough of Ferm Living lately. Gosh I love what they're doing with vinyl!



Real_simple_nelly



Mother and daughter team Elaine & Nell Oliver design wall stickers and sell them on Etsy in their store Elly Nelly



Additional wall decal companies to visit:



Saint Honore - Funky, urban, edgy. I love their Munchhausen collection.



Target - Yup, Target. They carry a ton of options from kiddie stickers to grown up florals.



Paris-based Les Invasions Ephémères.



Aren't wall decals a-peeling? ;)

Holly those are stunning. It takes a good eye to make it look classy, in the wrong hands, it can be a tack fest.

Wow! I wish I'd known about these when I lived in the dorms!!

Posted by: Leslie| March 26, 2008 at 04:21 PM




Glad you like them Yoli and Leslie. Oh yes, they can look pretty bad if the person putting them up doesn't have a good eye....

Thank you for rounding up all these excellent sources Holly! I have not tired of the wall graphics and love all the new designs that are coming out! So much fun!

We carry the French brand Domestic at Rare Device!

Thanks Lisa! I pointed readers over to Rare Device for Window Decals by Strössel Design a few days ago, I'm glad to know that you also carry Domestic -- you're a lot closer to home for most of us than Form and Function in Sweden. :)

I love, love, love these! They're like giant artwork at an affordable price. I can't wait to go shopping!

Posted by: Shalom| March 27, 2008 at 01:23 PM




They're SO fun and versatile, thank you for letting us know about all these resources. The big white flower headboard is my personal fave! I have a few birds from Fern Living in my kitchen and I just love them. And the fact they they just peel right on off makes them even more fab.

Enjoyed your huge selection of wall decals. I'm currently planning on painting my own graphic zinnias like I saw recently in a BH&G mag for my art/scrapbook room. The selection you shared has given me more ideas!!! :)

I love all the wall decor! Thanks!

A lot of wall decal companies ship only to Europe or to the US. For Canadian customers (like me), I've bought from Wonderful Graffiti before and been satisfied. (http://www.wonderfulgraffiti.com)

I love this ideas! The great thing about it is that it doesn't damage the wall and when you are tired of it you can just peel it off. How fabulous! There is a store here in Seattle that sells Domestic wall stickers (http://www.far4.net/?cat=57). They have a pretty good selection.
