Custom wall decals & stickers for kid's room

Decorating children’s rooms can sometimes be more demanding than tackling the interior design of adult rooms. Children grow up so quickly, and their likes and dislikes change so rapidly! No wonder it’s a major challenge to create a room that will grow with them! 

But instead of looking at a long-term plan that will work through childhood, and trying to make the time, effort, and money spent worthwhile, how about reconsidering your options? Choose an easy, safe, and economical decorating option that you can change with minimal effort.

If you’re stuck for inspiration... How about stickers?

## Why use stickers as wall decals for children’s rooms?

Back in the day, kids used to love sticker books – collecting lots and lots of themed, colorful stickers, and filling up the empty spaces.

Today, stickers have evolved and developed, and literally come of age! Stickers and decals now [have a multitude of uses](https://www.insider.com/tiktok-renter-friendly-apartment-hallway-ceiling-hack-target-wall-decals-2021-4 "viral wall sticker trend"), and they have become a powerful decorating tool for children’s rooms. As a result, more and more people are using them as a cheaper, easier, and more effective option than paint, stenciling, wallpaper, or other more traditional decorating tools. 

They have also become a decorating tool that you can use to involve your kids so that they are part of the process. 

## How do you use stickers as decorating tools for children’s rooms?

Wall stickers come in all shapes, sizes, and colors. Made from some sort of self-adhesive fabric, they can be used in a multitude of ways to add color and character to rooms. 

Better still, custom stickers make it possible for creative parents to design amazing rooms for their kiddies. Less creative parents can come up with an idea and get help from specialist companies that manufacture quality products. Either way, you’re going to get something that adds a unique decorating touch to the room.

Whatever you have planned, wall stickers for kids’ rooms open up possibilities beyond most people’s imaginations. 

The options available for décor use today are awesome!

First of all, wall stickers and decals can be designed to look like posters. For instance, [custom stickers for children’s rooms](https://www.stickermule.com/uses/wall-decals) can be a standard poster size – 24 inches x 36 inches (610 mm x 910 mm). Or they can be bigger, up to 96 inches wide by 56 inches high (2.5 m x 1.5 m). That’s big, and it can make a statement and add character to any boy or girl’s room. 

The possibilities are endless! You can print out a shape, a tree, a face, a car, a doll’s house, or maybe a horse, a dog, or a cat!

Just be sure to choose [good quality wall stickers and decals for kids rooms](https://www.stickermule.com/products/wall-graphics). Top-quality vinyl and fabric-like material last the longest. Some high-quality designs can be reused though they might not be quite as sticky the second time around. 

## How do you use stickers to create a theme in children’s rooms?

Whatever design medium you decide to use for your children’s rooms, a theme of some sort will add impact and character. 

If your kids are very young, you can decide on the theme, but if they are older, consider asking for their input. After all, they are going to be the ones waking up or going to sleep in the environment you are creating.

Theme options are vast and varied. Here are some ideas:

- Trees and forests are popular themes. You can start out with one or more tree wall stickers, depending on the effect you want to create. Opt for one type of tree or mix two or three designs. Add flowers to the branches or stick butterflies, birds, and/or bees around the tree wall stickers. Introduce a few leafy pot plants to add interest and life to the room.

- Flowers can be used on their own, to create the effect of a flower garden, or flower wall stickers can be used to form a border around the room, just below the ceiling or at dado height. You could make the theme a fairy garden, creating a little extra magic in the room. If you have flowers in your garden, get your kids to pick some now and then and have a vase of flowers in the bedroom too. 

- Cat and dog wall stickers are also popular with children, and again, the possibilities are endless. If your son or daughter has a special pet, you could have a custom sticker made that is life-size or even larger than life – depending of course on the size of the animal. Dog wall art stickers can be used on their own or you can add balls or paw prints. You might prefer to have a silhouette of two or three cats, perhaps playing with birds or just sleeping. 

![Children-Room-Wall-Graphic](https://storage.googleapis.com/sm-content/blog/cfd77a102245adba9da5021d7de29b7975730f56)

- Teddy bears are another wildly versatile option. You could have one big teddy above your child’s cot or bed, or a line of them matched with a real teddy collection. Or what about a teddy bears’ picnic? You could use kids’ cartoon wall stickers for the bears and combine them with tree wall stickers. Or have a big custom bear wall sticker made and stick it up with a few pots of honey and lots of bumblebees. 

- If your kid likes sports, you can also redecorate featuring their team and the sporting heroes they adore. For example, football wall stickers range from action designs to balls and shirts. You could have silhouette figures dribbling or kicking balls, or real-life football stars. You could frame your kid’s first football shirt and have action stickers all around it. Or if they’re into martial arts, make judo or karate the theme with one or more martial arts wall stickers on a feature wall, perhaps with your child’s name in vinyl lettering above the stickers. 

- Cars and trucks and motorbikes are also one of the more popular children’s rooms themes. Make the theme more definitive by focusing on racing cars or race track stickers and decals. If they’re collecting hot wheels or any other racing car toys, include them in the decor by having them on display. 

Whether the idea of flower wall decals, kids cartoon wall stickers, or any other wall stickers and decals appeal to you, you need stickers that are durable. If you’re going with custom wall stickers, Sticker Mule works from photographs or any type of artwork. You’ll get free online proofs and free worldwide shipping. 

Our wall decals are what children’s room designers love to use so try it for yourself!

Your guide to creating the ultimate marketing pack

Marketing is crucial for any business. It's what helps you gain new customers, keep existing ones, and generally grow your brand. But what makes for effective marketing? 

That's a question pretty much everyone's trying to solve. And the real answer (and probably the most hated!) is "it depends on your business."

While that much is correct, some fundamental marketing tools will apply across most industries and sectors. For example, branded items are one of the best marketing tools out there to grow brands, and it's an opportunity to be creative. Whether you're opting for [fun marketing stickers](https://www.stickermule.com/products/sticker-sheets), printed t-shirts, and mugs, or really any physical item with your logo on it, it helps your brand gain exposure, and it's one of the best ways to get your name out there.

![no treble sticker sheet](https://storage.googleapis.com/sm-content/blog/d11bc03651bf72e38866fb27b5779d9270b2adcc)

## What is a marketing pack?

A marketing pack (or marketing kit) is essentially a portfolio of items representing your brand and allowing others to get to know you. While the items you choose for marketing and branding will differ, what's important to remember in this context is cohesiveness! You want your marketing pack to tell a story about you and tailor the items to whoever is on the receiving end. 

### Where do I start?

The fundamental rule to follow when thinking about items to include in your marketing pack: What does this say about my brand, and why am I including it? 

Think about the story you are trying to tell and what existing materials you have that communicate this effectively. 

One of the best ways to put together a marketing packet is to start assembling different flyers, brochures, and promotional material you already have to see what's missing. This could be a mix of 1-pagers around your services and processes and more detailed brochures and tri-folds that go into more detail. 

If you have that ready to go, you're pretty much halfway to putting together a great marketing kit! And if not, you'll only need to spend a little bit of time creating these materials because the other half of your marketing toolkit will likely consist of promotional items.

## Why do I need a marketing kit?

The main reason a marketing pack is useful is that it's an introduction to your brand. By including items that reflect you and your brand, you're able to educate new customers with more ease. It's an excellent tool for retention since it serves as a reminder for existing customers to rediscover your brand! 

The effectiveness of marketing stickers and other promotional tools is tethered to the quality of items you choose and what they say about you. A marketing pack is an educational and promotional piece all at once, and it's designed to sell you. 

Depending on who is on the receiving end of a marketing toolkit, you can tailor materials to address their issues, show your brand is a solution to their problems, and add some more branded items for promotional purposes. 

A marketing packet is a business development tool at its core, and its purpose is to sell your brand. Although the way you sell your brand through the marketing pack will change across audiences, the goal remains the same. 

The earlier point about brand story plays a significant role here. If you've spent any kind of investment on creating branding material (which you likely have!) then this is one of the best ways to showcase it. 

Clients and customers connect more to a business when it has a clear narrative and story, and marketing packs help cultivate that story and bring it to life. And when you tailor it to your audience, you'll see more uplift and conversion because they will feel like you truly understand their issues and how to solve them. 

A marketing kit is just as much of a discussion about your capabilities as it is about your brand. That's why it's crucial to include a mixture of items to create a successful marketing pack.

![Custom keychains](https://storage.googleapis.com/sm-content/blog/96700908e39f133dbc5aa1d86a3f07ee9c5d2f6b)

## What goes into a marketing kit

There's no hard and fast rule about what goes into a marketing pack. However, some common items could include 

- Booklets with case studies
- Brochures with company information 
- Business cards

There could also be more 'fun' branded items like:

- Marketing stickers
- Pocket folders
- Keychains 

Ideally, you're choosing a mixture of things that are reflective of your brand. 

The effectiveness of marketing stickers and other promotional items is well-documented in building brand awareness and loyalty. By including fun items alongside informational materials, you can balance out your marketing pack to be promotional but not too aggressively sales-y. 

Whether you're choosing to go for sticker marketing or other items, it's essential to think about the whole look - the earlier point about cohesiveness comes back into play. 

You want your items to have a consistent look with branding and, more importantly, include both unique and functional items. Adding in items to your marketing kit that don't really serve a purpose will likely lead to many binned items. (Never good!)

A marketing packet doesn't need to be super heavy and loaded with unnecessary materials. Think about the audience receiving this packet and what they need to know most about you.

![Custom stickers for marketing toolkit](https://storage.googleapis.com/sm-content/blog/9233a3080a60d3af516b1118e0c320babe268677)

For example, if it's someone who is somewhat familiar with your brand already, you might want to include:

- Case studies tailored to their industry
- Marketing stickers and 1-2 other promotional items such as a pocket folder and keychain
- Detailed information around your processes and services

If it's an entirely new customer that you've just been introduced to and you're hoping to set up an initial call, your marketing pack could include:

- Brochures introducing your company 
- A brief overview of services and processes that may interest them
- Marketing stickers, and one other promotional item such as the one mentioned above

You can mix and match as needed, but creating a pool of items to choose from makes the process of putting together a marketing pack much easier. You can keep copies of brochures and other flyers, and promotional materials handy and have a box of branded items ready to go. Assembling the marketing pack will become a faster process, and you'll be able to send the marketing packet to new and existing clients faster.

Your marketing kit is all about putting your brand front and center. It should include information and objects that communicate your story compellingly and excitingly and encourage the recipient to get in touch!

How to design the best custom bike stickers

Bike stickers, whether for your mountain bike, sports bike, dirt bike, or really any bike, are one of the best ways to customize your bike and make it feel like your own. Used by both teams and individuals, bike name stickers and other custom bike stickers are a unique way to distinguish your bike from others. Plus, they are designed to be durable and weather-proof, so your bike stickers will be able to withstand all kinds of weather and terrain. 

If you’re not sure how to design your bike sticker or what types of things you should be keeping in mind during the design process, our guide will help you design the best bike sticker ever.

## Why have a custom bike sticker?

The first thing to consider in the design process is establishing why you need a custom bike sticker. 

It might sound a bit obvious, but having a clear reason for why you need it informs the design process and makes expectations clear from the start. For example, if you’re designing a sports bike sticker for your team, you will need to consider how many people there are, whether any extras are required and whether you want just your logo, names, or a combo.

![A bike covered in stickers parked by a wall](https://storage.googleapis.com/sm-content/blog/e10cc9fad8105512c6719f40dbc9629a9beb6654)

If it’s just for you, you’ll want to consider what you would like to express with your bike sticker design. Is it just a matter of identification, or is it a representation of a hobby, interest, or thought? For example, some people like to get mountain bike stickers of their country’s flag or a street bike sticker with a funny sign or slogan. 

There are a lot of custom bike sticker designs out there that will be a good fit. But again, knowing what you want and having clear expectations will always be a good thing in this process. 

Why? Because this information, in turn, will help in designing the actual bike sticker because you will know exactly what needs to go on it right from the start. Custom bike sticker designs completed by a professional will usually offer free proofs, and you will go back and forth on the design. However, having clearly defined designs will help reduce the number of amends needed.

![Custom bike frame sticker](https://storage.googleapis.com/sm-content/blog/7945d86260b08386b807a0088ba9f01429bfb0f4)

## What should my bike sticker design be?

We’ve touched upon this a little earlier, but it bears some more discussion. If you’re thinking about how to make bike stickers and how to design a bike sticker, there is a lot of inspiration out there. 

We’ve compiled some examples of the [best bike stickers](https://www.stickermule.com/uses/bike-stickers) if you’re looking for inspiration, and here is some advice for the design to ensure you get the best look possible:

- Do you want it to stick invisibly or have a die-cut shape for your mountain bike sticker or BMX bike sticker? 
- Do you want a longer text phrase or something short like just your name or your team member’s names? And what kind of font would you prefer?
- If you’re going for a symbol or a logo of some kind, what kind of colors will look best for your custom bike stickers, and do you already have a design file that can be used for proofs?
- What is your timeline for the bike stickers? Do you need it before a specific day, and does anyone else need to approve the custom bike stickers? (i.e., other team members for custom mountain bike stickers, etc.)

In terms of how to design your bike stickers, there are a few ways to go about this. You could create your own design on programs such as Illustrator or other free alternatives, browse on the internet for examples, or use your team’s colors and logos. 

If you’re designing just for yourself, you can opt for bold colors to make your bike sticker stand out, or pick unique words and phrases and create a die-cut shape design for a cool look! 

### Custom bike sticker sizing

It’s also necessary to think about quantities and the actual size of the sticker. Size-wise, depending on your bike, dirt bike stickers, street bike stickers, and mountain bike stickers, among others, can start from 2x2 and go up to 5x5, so you can choose a small and subtle design or something larger and more eye-catching depending on your needs. 

Bear in mind that pricing for your custom sticker design will depend on the quantity you’re ordering, with higher quantities commanding a bit of a discount, which is great for teams. Even if you’re ordering individual stickers for yourself for your BMX bike or a dirt bike sticker, you’ll be able to find affordable options. 

## What are the best stickers for my bike?

Once you have a design picked for your bike sticker, what are some of the key things you need to look out for when you’re thinking about how to design your bike sticker?

![Personalized bike frame sticker](https://storage.googleapis.com/sm-content/blog/a976e8af0421801c1ae995c4f5582576d43cee6d)

### Vinyl material

Generally, for the best results, you should use vinyl for stickers. This is the best material as it is durable and prints colors and designs well.

### Weather-proof 

Whether it’s a mountain bike sticker or a dirt bike sticker, or any kind of bike sticker, it needs to be able to withstand rough terrain and weather without being damaged! You should ideally be looking for vinyl stickers that are UV-resistant at the very least. The best stickers for your bike should also be scratch and rain-resistant.

### Durable 

How long will your custom bike stickers last? Most bike stickers can last for at least 5-7 years, especially if they are laminated and can resist damage from the elements.

Ultimately, when you’re thinking about how to design a bike sticker, your primary focus should be endurance. How long will it last, and how much does the bike sticker design resonate with you? You don’t want to pick something you’ll get bored of too quickly if it’s for your individual needs. If designing for a team, you want to ensure that your bike sticker looks professional and high-quality. 

If you’re not sure what bike sticker designs are best for your needs, or you just need a bit of guidance on how to design the best bike sticker, get in touch! At Sticker Mule, we’re experienced in creating unique bike stickers custom-designed for you, and we’re here to make your vision come to life.

Design Your Own VSCO Stickers

## What are VSCO stickers?
To understand VSCO stickers better, we first need to talk about VSCO kids! The name VSCO comes from the popular photography and photo editing mobile app that is used to apply filters to their photos. A VSCO girl or VSCO kid belongs to a subculture of Gen Z that emerged in 2019 and gained popularity on Instagram and Tiktok. They are known to dress and accessorize similarly, which make them distinguishable from everyone. Some notable VSCO kid styles are oversized t-shirts, Birkenstocks, friendship bracelets, scrunchies, and water bottles decorated with lots of stickers!

[VSCO stickers](https://www.stickermule.com/uses/vsco-stickers) are known for their cute aesthetic with a pastel color palette, and hand drawn quality to them. Most VSCO designs are of animals, plants, nature, and inspirational quotes or funny statements. One distinguishable look that is associated with VSCO stickers is the white padding that borders around the design. 

## Where can you use VSCO stickers?

VSCO stickers are usually seen on:

-	Water bottles like hydroflasks
-	Phone cases
-	Laptops or laptop cases
-	Mirrors
-	Airpod cases
-	Lockers
-	Instax, Polaroid or other instant cameras
-	…or virtually anywhere with a smooth surface!

## Are VSCO stickers waterproof?
Different VSCO stickers are made of different materials. Some stickers are made with just simple sticker paper, which makes them lose their quality and adhesive when getting wet. Other stickers are made with differing qualities of vinyl. 

Vinyl stickers are sunlight damage resistant and they are able to keep their vivid, bright colors for a long time. Vinyl stickers are also waterproof, so you won’t have to worry about your stickers peeling off when you are washing your water bottle! 

## Where do I find VSCO stickers?
VSCO stickers are available online from a lot of major retailers like Amazon, Walmart, and others. You’ll also be able to purchase VSCO stickers from popular marketplace sites like Etsy. There are a lot of artists and small businesses that offer their designs as VSCO stickers on their own websites. 

Bigger retailers sell huge bundles of stickers for cheap, while smaller businesses and independent artists sell their stickers at a slightly more expensive price point. While there are a whole lot of designs and sellers to choose from, most of these options do not offer customization or allow you to make your very own sticker design.

## How do you design VSCO stickers?
There’s a lot of ways to design your own VSCO sticker. You can design using programs like [Adobe Photoshop](https://www.stickermule.com/blog/how-to-remove-backgrounds-in-photoshop), [Illustrator](https://www.stickermule.com/blog/how-to-design-stickers), or [Studio](https://www.stickermule.com/studio). You can also draw your artwork digitally using apps like Procreate and Affinity. 

One stand-out feature of a VSCO sticker is its hand-drawn aesthetic, pastel color palette, as well as the white border that pads around the design. So, for this instance we will use Procreate to draw our own design:

### 1.	Create a new canvas in Procreate.

You will now then be able to print your design from your device using your home printer and sticker papers! 

Keep in mind that when printing your own design using inkjet vinyl sticker paper, expect to get a lower quality sticker. Some inkjet printer ink does not adhere well to vinyl, ending up smeared on the paper. Stickers made this way are also not guaranteed as waterproof.

## How do you make VSCO stickers without a printer?
You can always purchase VSCO stickers from a lot of retailers like the ones mentioned above, but you will not have the option to personalize or use your own design. With Sticker Mule, you’ll be able to have your very own VSCO sticker design printed and cut! 
Getting your design uploaded to Sticker Mule is super easy! 

1.	On Sticker Mule’s homepage, select custom stickers. You will be then able to pick from a wide variety of sticker styles like die cut, round, rectangle, sticker sheets, clear, transfers, and even holographic!
