Perfect for making them feel grown up and offering them stimulating challenges, they are also colorful art pieces.
The stickers come in a variety of sizes from 2 inches by 1 inch and 1/4 up to 9 inches by 12 inches and 1/4. The best feature, is that these stickers can be peeled off and moved as many times as you like, without damaging them or the wall. How’s that for a no-risk experiment in kid’s room decor?
A few ideas for creative decor themes:
Get more than one set, and spell each child’s name over his/her bed.
Spell out sentences or phrases that inspire your child to read. Change the text before s/he comes home from school or kindergarten, or preschool, and make a game of sounding out each new arrangement.
Place them in alphabetical order, and make a game of looking up words in the dictionary. Every time s/he forgets the order of the alphabet, s/he need only look up and see it on the wall.
These sticker sets make great gifts, and are so affordable that you can get more than one set.

Stenciled designs are a great way to liven up your home decor.
They are so versatile, you can stencil almost anything. You can stencil wool floors, hardboard, walls, ceilings, furniture, and even fabric.
To create a stencil, lay a photocopy of the pattern you wish to cut out, over the sheet of acetate, and tape it down so that it won’t shift. Using a craft knife, cut through the photocopy of the design, and through the acetate backing, along the outlines of the shapes you wish to create with the stencil. Then when you lay your stencil over the surface you wish to decorate, dab the paint in the cut out area with the end of the paint brush. When you lift the stencil, you’ll have a perfect design, every time!
Use this technique to make attractive borders around room ceilings, the perimeter of the floor, the backs of chairs, curtain ends, window and door frames, and anywhere you’d like a bit of excitement. Your room decor will be uniquely your own when you add this personal touch. Stenciling is fun for all ages, and there are stencil designs to fit every room in the house. Why not try one today?
