Trend Alert: Wall Decals
Have you been looking for ways to transform your space without the cost and commitment of wallpaper or completely repainting the room? Wall Decals are taking the interior design world by storm, and we love using them in our interior design projects!
Whether it’s simple and elegant designs or more elaborate and fun wall decals, they can be used throughout the home. Let’s take a closer look into Wall Decals!

Why we love wall decals!
We have loved adding wall decals to our client’s homes (where and when appropriate) as they are easy to remove and update at a moment’s notice. They are particularly useful for using in play rooms, kids bedrooms and bathrooms!
Nowadays there are lots of different designs to choose from, making wall decals an option for other areas of the home too! Think laundry rooms, bathrooms, powder rooms, and even bedrooms!


How to use wall decals
Wall decals are incredibly easy to use! And can be used anywhere in the home.
Typically, you’ll want to prepare the wall surface first by removing any dust or dirt with a damp cloth. Wait for this to dry then apply the decals as per the instructions.
Adding wall decals to your home are an easy and affordable way of giving a space a refreshed look without the heavy cost and labor of wallpaper or paint!
What to watch out for with wall decals
As with any interior design trend, there are some considerations to take into account when thinking of using wall decals in your home…
If your wall isn’t completely clean from dust, or dry from cleaning the area down, the decals can look bumpy or bubbly. Taking time and extra care over the installation of wall decals is extremely important.
Ways to make wall decals last in your home
Wall decals can last many years in your home!
Make sure to choose good quality wall decals with high rating reviews. This will ensure they last many years! It is also worth taking the time before installation to plan what and which designs are going where. This will enable a sleek, smooth and quick installation.
