Who says vinyl wall decals are used strictly for decorative purposes? Sure, you can spruce up the décor of any bedroom, hall or area inside your home by applying a stylish vinyl decal to the wall, but another idea is to use them as a grow chart. DesignWithVinyl.com offers dozens of different vinyl growth charts, available in various sizes, shapes, colors and designs.
What Is a Vinyl Growth Chart
A vinyl growth chart is exactly what it sounds like: a vinyl decal that's used to measure the growth of one or more children. It's not uncommon for parents to create their own growth charts simply by making a mark on the wall during their child's birthday. While this is certainly an effective way to keep track of a child's growth, it doesn't offer any real decorative value to the room.
Still not convinced that a vinyl growth chart is worth the investment? Check out some of the many benefits they offer listed below:
- Allows you to see exactly how much your child has grown from year to year.
- Using the information given in a vinyl growth chart, you can talk with your family doctor to ensure your child is growing at a healthy rate.
- The vinyl growth charts available here at DesignWithVinyl.com are beautifully crafted in a way that's sure to bring more life and vibrancy to your home.
- Vinyl growth charts allow parents to track their child's growth without messing up the walls.
- Let's face it, they are fun!
How To Use a Vinyl Growth Chart
If this is your first time hearing about vinyl growth charts, let me explain how they work: First, you'll need to apply it to the wall with the measurements running vertically. Most vinyl growth charts begin at 20”, so measure your wall ahead of time and place a small mark using a pencil or pen at 20”. In order for it to be accurate, you must apply the growth chart with the bottom resting at the 20” mark (assuming this is the lowest measurement depicted on the chart.

The walls say a lot about a room. When you
first step foot into a person's home, you'll immediately notice the walls. This
can either be good or bad depending on how the homeowner decorated them. Leaving
the walls plain will create the 'blank canvas' effect, which is typically
frowned upon by professional interior designers. On the other hand, going
overboard with the wall decorations may create a cluttered appearance that does
the room no justice.
This week, we're going to discuss two of
the most popular decorative solutions for interior walls: traditional paintings
and vinyl wall decals. While both can be used to achieve an attractive room or
indoor environment, there are some major differences between the two that
shouldn't be overlooked. If you're still scratching your head trying to figure
out which one is right for you, keep reading to learn more about vinyl decals
vs traditional paintings for room décor.
Vinyl Wall Decals
·
Inexpensive (prices vary
depending on the design, size and other considerations, but most fall within
the $20-$25 range).
·
Easy to install and requires no
special tools or equipment.
·
Applied flush with the wall so
it looks more natural.
·
Literally thousands of
different vinyl designs available. If you have a particular interest or hobby,
chances are there's a design available that reflects it.
·
Doesn't damage the paint or
wall.
·
Budget-friendly alternative to
painting an entire room.
·
Can move them around simply by
peeling them off and placing it on a new location.
Traditional Paintings
·
Typically requires a hanging
nail or screw, along with a hammer at the very least.
·
May damage if someone
accidentally bumps into it.
·
Oftentimes leaves small but
noticeable holes in the drywall.
·
Paintings are not flush
with the wall, so they tend to look more unnatural.
·
Damages easily from the high
humidity and excessive sunlight.
·
Bulky and difficult to move
from one place to another.
·
Professional framing is
downright expensive.
As you can see, vinyl wall decals are the
clear winner when it comes to wall decorations. They offer homeowners a greater
amount of freedom when decorating rooms or areas within their home. Whether you
want to use a single vinyl decal or a dozen, you'll find they are a simple yet
brilliant way to improve your home's aesthetics without resorting to
traditional paintings.

Are you expecting a newborn sometime within the next nine
months? If so, you should use this time to decorate and design their nursery
with beautiful elements. The nursery is where your baby will spend most of his
or her time, so it's important for expecting parents to create an attractive,
relaxing environment. Besides, you'll probably find yourself spending a good
deal of time here as well. From rocking your newborn to sleep to changing
diapers, the nursery will become your home within a home.
This week, we're going to showcase the perfect vinyl wall
decal for your newborn's nursery. Whether you're expecting a boy, girl, or if
you prefer to not know the gender, you can't go wrong with this fun vinyl sticker.
The “Baby on Board” vinyl wall decal is ideal for use
in a newborn's nursery. As you can see in the photo, it mimics the look and
feel of a typical yellow-colored road sign – the only difference being the
phrase “Baby on Board” and the colorful design of an actual baby
underneath. Measuring 8” by 8”, it's the perfect size to use just about
anywhere in the nursery. You can place it above their crib, on the door,
mirror, wall or even a piece of furniture.
Nursery Decorating Tips:
·
Don't limit yourself to the traditional pink and
blues.
·
There's certainly nothing wrong with these two
colors, but
·
there are dozens of other colors on the spectrum
to choose
·
from.
·
If there's one thing that all newborns like,
it's animals.
·
You can use this to your advantage by adding fun
animal
·
figures and designs to your newborn's nursery.
·
Leave some room for pictures! Once your newborn
arrives,
·
you'll want to capture those early moments of
his or her
·
life in photos and use them in the nursery.
·
Stick with soft colors to achieve a tranquil
environment.
·
Use shelves, trunks, chests, plastic tubs and
cubby holes for storage (trust me, you'll need lots of storage).
·
Be sure to include a diaper changing station
along with all of the necessary supplies for changing dirty diapers.
Note: you can also use the “Baby on Board” vinyl decal on
your car window. If you look closely at the decal, you'll notice the baby is
actually wearing a seat belt in the illustration, making it an excellent choice
for a car window. Placing this decal on your window lets other drivers know
that a newborn is riding in your car, so they need to use extra caution around
you.

any room, hallway, office, game room or even the garage. It features a bottle
