wall stickers/stencils - advice needed

littlejaffa · 27 May 2008 at 11:17AM

Can someone tell me the cheapest/easiest way to get this kind of picture on my wall?

I'm happy to draw them on then paint, but would like some really good printed pics to guide my free hand, or if i can get this in a much cheaper sticker that'd be great to.

I've heard of using ohp's but don't have access to one or to the clear sheets or a printer to make it happen. I guess i'm looking for brochures or templates or stencils, but all free/v cheap.

Hope someone can help

All these have some great designs for various rooms, a search for wall stickers on google provides even more. Good luck making your choices!!

The blossom one I can't see but from the description it sounds very much like ones that are in the clearance at B&Q down to about £4.

You can pick up an OHP on ebay for about £10 and then sell it on again. It's certainly easiest way that I've managed to do that sort of thing in the past.

My aunty bought one of the B&Q ones and its falling off the wall, she's had to selotape it on. I know they are a lot cheaper than these proper wall sticker companies but its a waste if they fall off.

Has anyone stayed at the Hoxton Hotel in London? They have some groovy Wall art, it's like a stencil was applied to the wall before plastering the the stencil was removed leaving an unplastered image (of St Pauls, Millenium Bridge etc.) Very good effect.

Hi Milkmaid,

Murals try to create an atmosphere in which you feel that you have become a part of the painting.

A mural could be interior or exterior - Interior murals can be painted directly on the walls or on canvas whereas exterior murals are a special form of public art!
