Kitchen Decor Plates Using Vinyl Lettering

Kitchen Decor Plates Using Vinyl Lettering

I love to go to people’s homes and see unique decor, especially in the kitchen.  I’m constantly amazed at how often vinyl lettering can be used in home decor. Aside from the traditional wall words, vinyl lettering can create some really unique home decor, even in the kitchen.  Recently I was at a friends home and saw some really unique decor items in her kitchen.  She had some very nice vines along the top of her kitchen cabinets with a nice home decor sign that featured a quote about hot bread (butter 25cents extra), along with some other items.  However, what reallly caught my eye were some decorative plates she had next to her stove, right under her spice rack.  They were simple ceramic plates that matched the decor of her kitchen, but the plates had printed on them different vegetables, such as tomato, onion, olive, etc.  They were on plate stands, and the lettering and graphics were painted on.  I thought, “how easy would this be to recreate using vinyl lettering?”  So, I went to the store, bought a couple of colored plates that matched my decor ($2.00 each) and recreated the decorative plates using vinyl letters. When all was said and done, I had recreated the same decorative plates at a fraction (about 1/4) of the cost that my friend paid for her decorative plates.

In interior design circles it’s becoming apparent that vinyl lettering is the new art of interior decor.  Like stained glass was to the 60’s and green shag carpet was to the 70’s, wall words are to the 2000’s.  However, I wouldn’t consider wall letters a fad as was the green shag carpet.  I think that this wonderful new type of elegant home graffiti is here to stay.

Many businesses and home owners alike are seizing the opportunity to use vinyl letters to decorate and adorn their spaces.  Businesses use it to plaster logo’s on conference room and receptionist area walls, while home owners utilize the vinyl wall lettering for add a touch of personality to the rooms of their homes. Many designers, like Mary McPhail, who worked as a copywriter for 25 years, love the power that words can have on our environments.  In fact, this is one of the reason that wall lettering has created such a stir in the interior design community – because it combines the power of words with the functions of good design and color to product truly stunning effects in both home and office decor.

Rob Reichart from Sales Corp International also found a way to put vinyl wall lettering to good use by plastering sales related motivational quotes on the walls of his sales floor.  The vinyl lettering kits allow him to customize his quotes, and they’re easy to apply and remove, which allows him to change them as frequently as he would like without the need for costly paint.

I often get requests from people wanting help decorating their childrens rooms , or their baby’s nursery using vinyl lettering.  But seldom, when it comes to decorating, do we adults consider how we might add some charm to our own bedrooms.  So much of our lives are focused on our children, that we often overlook the fact that our own bedrooms may need a decorating makeover as well.

Vinyl Lettering Can Help You Spruce Up Your Valentines Day Gifts.

There are so many things you can do with vinyl lettering, but did you ever think that it could help make a valentines gift a little more special?  There are a lot of directions you could go with this, here are a few different ideas for using vinyl letters in a valentines day gift.

Gift Box Decoration

Just like in the picture here, you can use vinyl lettering to decorate a tin or small mailbox with hearts and even the recipients name.  While it may be quite simple, the fact that it’s custom will show your special someone that you put a lot of thought into your valentines day gift…and that it wasn’t simply something you grabbed off of a store shelf.

Picture Frames

Another great valentines day gift is to give your special someone a picture frame that has spaces for 2 5×7 pictures.  Fill one of the 5×7 slots with your favorite picture together, and fill the other side with a nice piece of decorative paper, like a velum or light paisley, etc.  Then, on top of the glass (paper side) stick some vinyl lettering that shows the date you were married, etc. Once again, not your standard gift, which will show your honey that you spent some time thinking about what to get them.

Etched Glass

Another thing you can do with vinyl lettering is to make a stencil from the vinyl. Instead of sticking the letters on, you take the vinyl letters out, and use the surrounding vinyl as a stencil.  Stick the stencil to a glass box, vase, etc, and then brush over the vinyl with some etching creme, available at most craft stores.  The exposed area of the stencil will etch the glass, leaving the exposed area etched.

If you’ve never seen a home decor (sometimes called decorative tiles ), you’ll be amazed at what a great home decor item a decorative tile is.  They also make great gifts, and best of all they’re inexpensive, and simple to create using some custom vinyl lettering.  The vinyl letters are pre-spaced, so no need to painstakingly apply them one at a time.  Simply place the letters onto the tile using the easy to follow instructions, then spray a couple of coats of clear coat spray, and you have a decorative piece that will last generations.

Decorative tiles also make great wedding gifts because they’re very unique.  Every couple gets a few blenders, several toasters, and a bunch of other useless gadgets that nobody can use.  So, why not give the couple something unique that they’ll cherish for years to come.  With vinyl lettering from Wall Stamps, you can create anything you can imagine.

Wall Lettering in Home Office

Wall Lettering in Home Office

If you’re a business looking to create an inspiring and uplifting office space, you may want to consider a somewhat new trend that can help you achieve an uplifting atmosphere, without spending a lot of cash. Many businesses are taking advantage of vinyl wall lettering to enhance their offices. From retail stores, to sales offices, almost any business can use vinyl wall letters to customize and personalize their office space. Recently, a bakery had some wall lettering made from vinyl for their retail store. They were able to get their logo in vinyl lettering for a quarter of the cost to have someone come and paint the logo on the wall of their store. Another example of how businesses can use wall lettering to enhance their space is reflected in a sales office, which had used wall letters to put their mission statement, along with inspirational quotes at various places around their office, which helped to create an uplifting and motivating atmosphere. Anyone who has worked, or managed a call center or a sales team will testify how important it is to keep your employees motivated. One key aspect is creating an atmosphere which feeds, and reinforces such motivation. This can be achieved without breaking the bank by using wall lettering. While painting logos, mission statements, or motivational phrases on walls can cost a small fortune, and are more permanent, wall lettering can achieve the same look at a fraction of the price. What’s more is that wall lettering is also removable without damaging the walls, which can’t be said with painted and stenciled wall lettering.

 

Whether you’re a small business, or a large retail store, vinyl wall lettering can not only enhance your atmosphere, but because it’s inexpensive to create, it can also add to your bottom line…which is something nearly every business owner can appreciate.
