What are the different types of wall stickers I can use for my house?

Before we start interior decorating, let’s learn more about the different types of wall art stickers you can use in your home:

• Mirror decals or front adhesive stickers: As the name suggests, the sticky part is on the front of the sticker. This allows you to stick it on surfaces like windows so its design can be seen on the outside.

• Mirror wall stickers: Also known as mirror clings, these stickers have a self-clinging white vinyl. Yup, you read that right! They don’t need adhesive to apply to your mirror. They're your best bet for reusing and repositioning!

• Wall art stickers or decals: Made from a self-adhesive fabric, this type of sticker is removable. The premium vinyl has a fabric-like textured finish that diffuses light and matches the texture of your wall.

• Holographic stickers: Funky rainbow effects that change with light? Holographic stickers are here to jazz up any boring room.

What is the difference between wall stickers and wall decals?

Though both are decorations you can stick on your wall, they can also mean something different.

According to some decorators, wall decals can mean a lot of things. It’s basically any decoration you can put up on your wall, including wall graphics or non-adhesive decors. Wall art stickers, on the other hand, are very straightforward. They usually refer to back adhesive stickers.

Suppliers may call these by different names too. When you’re going to your hardware store or checking out wall decals online, make sure to read the fine print below the pretty graphics. Read that description before hitting that “Add to cart” button!
