Beautiful Bedroom Walls with Vinyl Lettering

Whether you are considering redecorating your office, home, or business there is a good chance that decorative signs, clocks, and wall words can help you achieve the look you desire.  Whether you want an elegant, professional, or fun look, you can achieve an expensive hand stenciled look without spending a fortune.  How, you might ask?  By utilizing vinyl wall lettering, often referred to as “wall words.”  Wall lettering really is great for decorating any space in your home, and doesn’t have to be applied only to walls, but can be used to create great decor pieces such as decorative signs, or decorative tiles.  However, it is wonderful, and is most commonly used to add words to walls.  This is not only due to how beautiful a well placed quote can be, but because wall lettering doesn’t damage walls, and is less expensive and time intensive than painting – making it the perfect choice for those who rent, or have temporary office space.

People are often astonished at how versatile vinyl lettering can be in regards to home décor and interior design. In fact, there are so many uses for vinyl lettering in home décor that it would take us days, and over a hundred pages just to begin.  However, for those who are new to the idea of using vinyl letters for interior design and crafting, we have listed 5 of the most common ways you can use vinyl to achieve beautiful home decor and craft projects.

1. Break Up Space With A Border – Another great way to use custom vinyl lettering is to use it as a border.  Whether you choose a graphic type lettering kit, such as flowers, vines, or shapes, or have a border made of words, one thing is for certain – the border will bring a certain charm to the room that you could have never imagined.  Whether you put a border around the top of a childs room (using the words of a favorite children’s song), or put a grape vine border around the chair rail in the dining room, your border is sure to be a hit.
2. Words That Inspire – You can create the atmosphere you want in any room with a custom quote on one of the walls. This is the most well known use of vinyl lettering in home decor, often referred to as “wall words.” A thoughtfully placed quote can soften the mood in a room, or invoke whatever emotion you seek.  Don’t underestimate the power of words in your decor.
3. Keep Tabs On Your Dishes — If you’ve every attended a BBQ with friends and family, and lost that special baking dish you loved, then you know how important it is to label things.  Many people defile their glass baking dishes by resorting to a “Sharpie” permanent marker to label their dishes.  However, few consider that you can use vinyl lettering as a stencil, and some inexpensive glass etching cream, to etch a permanent, and beautiful label on any glass baking dish.  Not only will people know who the dish belongs to, but they’ll think you must have spent a fortune (Shhh, it’s our secret).  Etched baking dishes also make a great wedding gift for the couple just starting out.
4. Signs & Banners — While vinyl lettering is great for home decor inside the home, it can also be used to create banners and signs as well.  You can order vinyl banners online, and add vinyl lettering to them to create a very nice banner.  We did this for our son’s baseball team after they won the state championship. You should have seen my son’s face to come back from the state tournament to a congratulatory banner hanging in the front yard (I think he still has it hanging in his room).  Also, we’ve used vinyl lettering to create nice garage sale signs on foam board.  They’re durable, don’t get blown away like poster board does, and stand up to the elements.  As you can see, what you can achieve with vinyl lettering is only limited by your own creativity
5. Give Them Something To Look At — Another great use for vinyl lettering in home decor is by using wall lettering to accent a photo wall.  Few things break up a cluster of photos, and draw the eye to them as does a beautiful quote about family, friends, etc.  Most manufacturers have pre-designed quotes specifically intended for this purpose, but you can always get creative and design your own.  The only limit to what you can do with vinyl lettering is that imposed by your own creativity.

Of course, these are only a few of the ways you can utilize vinyl lettering in decorating your home or office.  However, these ideas will hopefully jumpstart your imagination and get you considering all of the many ways you can use vinyl lettering in your home decor.

In your quest to find the right vinyl lettering, there are many choices available online.  Many companies will customize vinyl lettering for you, but one thing to consider is the quality of the vinyl as not all vinyl is created equal.  So, choosing a well established and reputable company is important to ensure you get a quality result.

Vinyl Wall Lettering for Baby's Nursery.

few things as blessed as when the day finally comes when you have the little one you’ve been praying for in your arms.  My friend Angie who was able to have a child after years of trying wanted some wall lettering for her baby’s room. The quote she selected, from the Bible, couldn’t have been better suited for her baby’s room.  The quote, “For this child I have prayed, and the Lord has granted the desires of my heart. – 1 Samuel 1:27,” was done in white vinyl lettering on medium pink walls.  The wall words come out wonderfully, and the great thing about using vinyl letters is that you can customize it (both font and colors) to match your style and decor.  If you’re looking for an inexpensive way to add a little something to your child’s nursery, vinyl wall lettering is a great option.

Wedding Monogram - Vinyl Wall Lettering

Monograms are in!  To be honest, they never really went out of style.  Monograms have been, and will likely continue to be popular in all types of design circles, especially within the realm of interior design.  Monograms can be created to create any type of look you want, from classy to spunky, elegant to fun.  Whatever your taste in decor, a monogram can be created to add just the right touch of personality to any room in your home.

One type of monogram that has been gaining in popularity is the wedding monogram, which features a couples names and wedding date.  Often, these monograms take advantage of multiple colors, using a dark color in the background, and a lighter color overlay (or vice versa).  While it’s the norm to install these monograms on a family photo wall, they also make great decorative tiles and signs.  The decorative tiles are great wedding or anniversary gifts.

Kids love to see their name, so why not give them a fun kids monogram that they’ll love.

Custom Monogram of Vinyl Lettering

One thing people ask us about on a consistent basis is whether or not we can do custom monograms using vinyl lettering. Vinyl wall lettering monograms can add a lot of beauty to any room in your home.  If you’re not familiar with what a monogram is, amonogram is a motif made by overlapping or combining one or more letters form one symbol. Monograms are often made by combining the initials of an individual or a company, used as recognizable symbols or logos. A series of uncombined initials is properly referred to as a cypher and is not a monogram, although ciphers are frequently referred to as monograms.  An individual’s monogram is often a very fancy piece of art for adorning luggage, clothing, and so forth. Monograms of the names of monarchs are used as part of the insignia of public organizations in kingdoms, such as on police badges.

However, monograms, in the sense that we refer to them, are letters, that generally represent someone’s initials, specifically in regard to their last name.  We have made custom monograms for people to cover a wide variety of uses, including installing vinyl letters monograms on:

• Mirrors
• Shower Doors

Vinyl Wall Lettering - Families Are Forever

I remember as a kid growing up watching the TV Show “Leave It to Beaver” on Nick at Night. What a great show, especially in contrast to all the garbage on television now days. It seems as if the “good old family values” we knew and loved back then have gone the way of the birds, but there are those of us who still hold true to the values of the past, and what better way to showcase our love of life and family than a great entry way quote.

"Oh, the places you'll go." - Wall Lettering

One of the most utilized rooms of our home is our upstairs playroom.  With three kids, under the age of 6, it’s no wonder the room is so well used.  Because my kids spend so much time in there, I wanted to create a great atmosphere, and did so with wall words made from vinyl lettering.

I started with a theme.  I chose the theme “world traveler.”  I got a large map, had my husband build a frame for it, which I painted black.  Next, I purchased 4 inexpensive clocks from Target.  Above the clocks in vinyl letters I put the words London, Tokyo, Paris, Provo – and set the clocks to reflect the time of each of the places.

Next, I found some fun quotes about travel, like one from Dr. Suess “Oh, the places you’ll go” etc.  These quotes I did in coordinating colors, and randomly affixed them to the walls with the same wall letters.  We ended up with a fun playroom that my kids absolutely LOVE!
