Vinyl/Transfer Tape

If your order came with paper tape covering the decal, follow these instructions for application!

Step 1: Decide on a spot on your wall and give it a quick wipe with a dry cloth to get rid of any dust.
Dust and dirt underneath the sticker can cause blemishes or even make it peel, so make sure the surface is as clean as possible before applying to ensure longevity.

Step 2: Without peeling any part of the sticker, position it on your wall and stick it down on each side using sticky tape. This is where you need to make sure the design is exactly where you want it because after this you can’t adjust it!

Step 3: Remove the tape from one side (so now only one side is taped to the wall) and flip the design over so you see the back. With the Avery logo side now facing you, very slowly and carefully peel the backing (Avery side) from the taped side outwards smoothing the sticker against the wall as you do this.  Make sure you do this slowly to avoid the sticker tearing.

Tip: In case the design gets stuck on the backing and isn’t transferring to the wall, stop peeling. Roll the backing back and press down on it to make it stick to the paper tape. Repeat until the sticker comes off the backing and is on the tape/wall.

Step 4: Now that your design is on the wall, it’s time to make sure it sticks. Using a rounded credit card or something similar squeegee firmly away from the centre of the design several times. Make sure you do this to the whole design and don’t miss a bit, this transfers the sticker to your wall and helps the adhesive stick.

Step 5: In order to take off the transfer tape and reveal the beautiful decal underneath you need to slowly peel it off. Starting at a corner, peel the tape at an angle of 0 ° to 30 ° (with 0 ° being flush to the wall) If it doesn’t stick to your wall, stop and repeat step 4 on that section.

Step 6: Voila! You’re done. Now it’s time to take a selfie with your new wall look and post it online! Tag us on Instagram #littlestickerboy

 

Print/ Non-transfer tape

If you’re wondering what is the best way to stick your new sticker to the wall, follow these instructions:

Step 1: Decide on a spot on your wall and give it a quick wipe with a dry cloth to get rid of any dust.
Dust and dirt underneath the sticker can cause blemishes or even make it peel, so make sure the surface is as clean as possible before applying to ensure longevity.

Step 2:   Using a pencil or some sticky tape, mark out the position you want your decal to be on the wall. Try to apply sticky tape to the corners, this will make applying the decal easier in the next step.

Step 3:  Keeping the bottom half of the decal attached to the wall, either by hand or by sticky tape, slowly peel it off the backing to about half-way. Then cut the backing paper off with a pair of scissors, making sure to not cut the sticker itself!

Step 4:  Now you need to smooth the top half of the decal into the wall. Using a credit card slowly but firmly press it down into the wall using long upwards motions. It’s best to start from the middle and slowly work your way outwards. If the decal is particularly large, it may help to do this process in sections.

Step 5:  Then remove the bottom half of the backing paper and repeat previous step! Now, step back and admire your work, snap a pic and post it on Instagram!
