Adhesive Removable Vinyl

If you are planning on making something for indoor use (and not exposed to a dishwasher or harsh indoor conditions), this type of material will be your best friend.

It works beautifully on walls and doors. You can design and cut gorgeous monogram designs and decorate your bedroom, bathrooms, nursery, etc.

Walls are a perfect example of using removable vinyl; if you are renting, you don’t want to damage the paint of your wall when you are removing your design. And even if you own the place, removable vinyl is the best way to keep the integrity of your paint, in case you change your mind.

Adhesive Permanent Vinyl

Permanent vinyl is perfect for decals you intend to use in outdoor areas and that are exposed to the elements such as water, heat, cold, etc.

Designs for outdoor flower pots, car windows, and mugs (that you wash regularly) are the perfect surfaces you can use permanent vinyl on.
