Hoppy Spring!

After a long winter, there’s nothing better than seeing the first signs of spring - blooming flowers and blue jay sightings remind me that it’s right around the corner.

But, sometimes you’ve got to fake it ‘til you make it, which is why we love our pretty new limited-edition bunny decals! They’re the perfect way to dress up your walls without a long-term commitment.

They’re easy to put up (my 8-year-old applied ours!)...

…and when you decide to take them down, simply store them on their backing paper and put them away until next spring.

My kids love decorating with Room-eez™… from Christmas and Halloween decals to these brand new furry friends, our home always looks fun and festive!

For a limited time, you can get your own spring bunny decals for only $5!

 

Still in need of some spring inspiration? I’ve scoured my favorite craft blogs for the cutest activities to lift spirits until the sun decides to stay for good.

Decorating with Room-eez™

I'm a bit of a decorating nut... I love changing my color schemes from time-to-time, adding new accent pillows and throws, swapping out the art on my walls - you name it.

The only part I dislike? Putting holes in my walls!

So when Oliver's Labels first came out with Room-eez™ - our line of beautiful, easy-on / easy-off wall art - I was giddy to try it.

From the start, I knew I'd love Room-eez for many reasons:

• its lovely texture - it's matte, not shiny and slippery like vinyl
• durability - we tested our Room-eez material and it stood up to us removing and repositioning it many times before it was adversely affected
• lots of beautiful designs to choose from

My kids have had personalized Room-eez name decals in their rooms for awhile now, but recently I had a fantastic idea for using the initial wall decals in a fun way.

So here's some inspiration for an easy, inexpensive and impactful way to decorate with Room-eez!

Giving Our Lockers Some Love

We recently added a mudroom to the back of our home, complete with individual lockers/cubbies for each family member. This is what they look like...

I decided I wanted to customize them somehow but didn't want to mar the beautiful new cabinetry with screw or nail holes. Then the perfect solution came to me... Room-eez!

I ordered Room-eez letter decals online, choosing from 20 designs, over 20 fonts and infinite colors. Since my son is obsessed with camo, I knew which letter decal he would love!

They arrived a few days later and I set about putting them up. I started by reading over the instructions (just a little refresher!), then taking off the backing paper and positioning each letter where I wanted it to go.

Always read the instructions :)

This is how the package arrives,
showing me on the front what my initial will look like

STOP! A little reminder to read the application instructions :)

Gently peel away the backing paper

Position the initial wherever you'd like it.
The sticky paper on the front helps a lot!

Next, I made sure it was positioned exactly where I wanted it; had to move it a bit so it was entered, then peeled off the front and... voila!

My son's camo print initial in "Plain" font
(Tip: install USB charger outlets in cubbies to
keep smartphones & iPods from cluttering your counters!)

I repeated these steps for all four of our initials and this is how it turned out...

Using different fonts & colours/patterns lends an air of whimsy to the room

Our cubbies - personalized and ready to hold all of our stuff!

Personalized cubbies in less than 15 minutes! Room-eez truly are a breeze to put up and, hey, if you make a mistake, they are easy to reposition until you get it right.

We'd love to see how you decorate with Room-eez! Share your pictures on our social media pages
(using hashtag #Roomeez) and you may just get a surprise. ;)

Happy decorating!
