You want to appear adventurous yet you think it’s going to cost you too much. How does one achieve dramatic interior design results without breaking the bank? You want to make your friends gasp and be impressed by your daring and your innovative ideas and your impressive and soulful profile. Well, the best way to effect swooning in those around you while still leaving you enough to buy several examples of the better single malts is to invest in some self-adhesive vinyl wall stickers.

Still the preserve of the better informed interior designer and those lucky few that happen to stumble across this secretive world, wall stickers offer huge interior design benefits for a very modest outlay. It still surprises me to find that relatively few people know about wall stickers, they have been available for a good many years now and are hugely popular in France. An enormous number of designs are available online, but try and find them in the high street and you’re likely to be disappointed.

Retailers tend to be conservative; they are reluctant to take the plunge and stock something innovative if no one else will. Somebody has to be the first! Look at motorised skate boards and throwing stars. Other excuses offered by timid shopkeepers include the shoplifting risk, the lack of an easy display method, low profit per square foot, too cheap, too dear, doesn’t fit in with existing range, please get out of my shop. It’s no wonder there are still homes out there papered in woodchip. Wall stickers remain a marginal product known only to the elect.

The majority are missing out. No other interior design solution can compare to wall stickers; they are easy to apply (I’ve put them up drunk), last forever (so far), inexpensive in relation to the impact they provide and compared to wallpaper don’t require the removal of furniture and carpets when installing. If you’ve had enough of that silhouetted forest in your sitting room you can just peel it off, it will leave the paint behind and now you’re ready for that flock of birds and the stags head.

Having spoken to many people who’ve bought and applied wall stickers in their homes, or for clients in a wide range of commercial settings the response is always the same. They look fantastic, they went up in no time and everyone who sees them is suitably impressed.

You could be the next person doing the impressing.
