Care Guide

These stickers are designed to last and can even be treated as seasonal decorations if you take the right steps to preserve their stickiness! 
To help your wall stickers settle in happily, here are a few simple tips:

Before applying

Make sure your surface is clean, dry, and free from dust and grease. A smooth surface is preferable though not essential.
Newly painted walls should be left to cure for at least 3 weeks before application to prevent bubbling.
These stickers can also safely be applied to glass or furniture, and used outside, again, if the area is clean and dry before application.
They are also considered to be safe to apply over wallpaper but please try them out on a discreet area first.


Surfaces to avoid

Our stickers may not adhere well to:
Textured or rough walls
Freshly painted surfaces (less than 2–3 weeks old)
Already damaged surfaces such as flaking paintwork.
Brick, concrete, or heavily uneven surfaces


Applying your sticker
Preparation
Ensure the wall is clean, dry and free from dust or grease.
Application
Peel away a little of the backing paper to create a flap.
Positioning
Align your sticker with the desired spot on the wall.
Smoothing
Slowly pull down the backing paper while smoothing the material onto the wall with your hand, working from the centre outwards to eliminate bubbles.
Finishing 
Smooth over with a dry cloth.

Take your time, and if needed, you can carefully peel back and reposition during application

Please see our how to video for a demonstration.


Removal

Stickers can be easily removed by peeling back slowly and carefully. 
Be aware of areas where you might expect it to rip (i.e. places where the design makes a v-shape and 2 areas diverge), particularly when removing from glass.

Some paints or surfaces may be more delicate, so we recommend testing a small area first


A small note
Every wall is a little different, and we can’t guarantee perfect adhesion on all surfaces. Because of this, we’re unable to offer refunds for issues caused by unsuitable wall types or conditions.

If you’re unsure, feel free to get in touch before ordering—we’re always happy to help.
