New Item - Patterned Paint Rollers!

Pattern Rollers (Forest Animals Design)
from Decorette
Have you heard? We're expanding to include these awesome Patterned Paint Rollers to our range of DIY wall decor products! 

Pattern Rollers allow you to create your very own feature wall without the cost of wallpapering.  For those of you who love DIY crafts and are looking for an inexpensive way to decorate your walls, this is such an awesome product, you'll be surprised at how easy it is to use! Even if you can't draw a straight line, it's so easy to use the corners of your wall as your guide and roll these patterns down your surface.

We'll bring you a "How-To" video very shortly so you can see how easy it is!

And it's not just walls, use these on paper to create patterned giftwrapping paper, or even on fabric to create your own patterned material!


So how does it work?

There are two parts to the roller system - the Applicator and the Pattern Rollers. All rollers are interchangeable and reusable with both our Applicators. Select the right applicator based on the surface you are using this on - the Standard Applicator works on both painted walls and paper, while the 2-colour Applicator works on painted walls (with the option of having 2 colours) and also on fabric.

Then, using any water based paint in a colour of your choice, you are ready to roll away! As you roll, the Pattern Roller picks up a thin, uniform layer of paint from the Applicator and transfers this onto your surface. Viola! You can now DIY Wall Murals, make patterned gift-wrapping paper, or pattern your fabrics, in any design and colour of your choice!

From now till 31st Dec 2012, PRE-ORDER your Starter Packs and the first 50 orders will receive an additional roller absolutely FREE! Everyone loves free stuff, so you gotta hurry!  

Do note stock will be available and delivered from mid-Jan 2013 onwards.

Still not convinced? Look how gorgeous it is in Lilac on a White wall! This design is fab for decorating a nursery. I personally used it on brown craft paper to create a ream of christmas wrapping paper!

Filling an Empty Wall Space

Empty wall spaces can create the illusion of a bigger space - especially big white walls - but sometimes, too much blank space can be well... boring!

Instead of staring at a blank wall day in day out, spruce up your walls easily and instantly (compared to having to stencil or paint) with some inspirational quotes, bible verses and pretty floral designs with decals. If you haven't given these a shot before, you'll be pleasantly surprised by the outcome!

At Decorette, we use only the highest quality material imported from Europe so the material is very durable (lasts 3-4 years in good conditions indoors) whilst also thin, so designs look virtually painted on - your guests won't believe they are stickers! There is no other paper or transparent backing to detract from the design and because these are cut out (not printed), there is no fading of ink colours to worry about. You'll love it!

Here are some examples of how you can spruce up an empty wall in your homes with a combination of our floral and word decals. Hopefully this inspires you a little and motivates you to decorate with Decorette

Decorating Glass Doors with Decals

If you have squeaky clean glass doors at home, in your shop, or at the office, you'd know how important it is to make these "seen" so people don't accidentally walk into them. Funny to bystanders, not so funny for the person involved! Have you ever seen this video of a man running through a glass door? It's hilarious! p.s. no racism intended.

Ok, so he ran through the door, not because he couldn't see it, but because he just wanted to get through it (quite literally). 

Anyway, the point is to make glass doors obvious so people do not run into them - accidental or not. Especially if you have kids at home who run around at a lower eye level... so one solution is to use decals to dress up your glass doors. Read on to see how you can use our decals at Decorette to make those glass doors pretty :)

These pictures show  how you can use our "Clover Pattern" decals as a "floor-to-ceiling", or horizontal strip design to create a subtle yet obvious enough effect on your doors.  

The best thing about these designs is that they are so versatile, you can use them vertically or horizontally depending on your preference and space - and they look great either way!



For even more subtle touches, experiment with our Frosted range of colours (available in White, Rose Pink or Lux Gold - all equally gorgeous!). This material is semi-translucent so it creates a gorgeous (frosty) sandblasted effect, adding instant glam to your plain glass doors.

The picture on the left shows our Blossoming Blooms wall decal in Frosted Lux Gold that is perfect for adding a bit of nature indoors without trying too hard.

Hopefully this has given you some ideas on how to decorate your glass panels, now use your imagination and start decorating before someone gets hurt!

In this post, we've compiled all our bible verses that hold deep meaning in the hearts of many and hopefully you will find one that adds that special meaning to your walls too!

Jeremiah 29:11

With God - All Things are Possible

Faith Hope Love - 1 Corinthians 13:12

New Designs for the Nursery

Inspired by our own baby girl on the way, here are some of our latest decal designs great for decorating the nursery for your little one!

Woodland Birch - Nursery Wall Decal

Complete with a cute bambi deer, some flying birds, a signboard you can customise with your child's name and some extra text you can customise with your favourite wordings. This Woodland Birch decal will fill up the walls behind the crib (or playroom walls) quite nicely!

As with all our other decals, all elements are individual so you can be creative and place the branches, leaves, signboard and text wherever you like to suit your space. 



Floral Name - Nursery Wall Decal

Customise this sweet Floral Name decal design with your little girl's name (or any word you like!) and personalise her room with a bit of flair.

Great to place along the top of the crib in the nursery, or along the floor of your child's playroom.

Be creative! You can customise with words like "Dream", "Princess", "Baby Girl"... use your imagination and create your own personal piece for your little one's room.

Ribbon Swirls - Floral Nursery Wall Decal

These Ribbon Swirls will look great placed above a baby's crib, or even along the floor of a nursery. Use to your imagination and add a little bit of swirly flair to your children's rooms. Complete with butterfly-like flowers, these can be placed however you like to decorate as much, or as little of the room you like.

Butterfly Monogram - Nursery Wall Decal

It's always a nice touch to personalise the nursery with your little one's name. So we've created a pretty butterfly styled monogram great for a little girl's room! Place this above the crib, her dresser, on the door, wardrobe, mirror, glass window, or even on storage boxes that keep her toys. As long as you have a smooth and relatively flat surface, our decals will be perfect on them!

New Nursery Tree Design

We recently decorated our own Nursery room with this Whimsical Tree (yep! we have a baby girl on the way!) and I personally love it to bits! 

Whimsical Tree from Decorette
So.... (I admit with slight hesitation - after all, everyone wants something unique all for themselves...) I decided to list this in our store so everyone gets a chance to decorate with this gorgeous tree as well!

Trust me, it's HUUUUGE. It reaches pretty much the top of the wardrobe (which is about 220cm tall) and creates a nice flowy, embracing feel as it sort of cradles over the top of the crib. I love it! 

You can select colours of the leaves to match the theme of your room - pastel pinks if it's a girly girl sort of room, or pastel blue like in the picture shown in our store for a boy's room. Or, you could even put make it more "adult" and just go with a pure black or white silhouette for a neutral feel. Great for living or study rooms or at the entrance doorway of your home.

Hope you love this as much as we do and have fun decorating your nursery! View more of our decals for kids at our online store.

New "How To" Video up!

We finally got around to making our own "How To" video to showcase how easy it is to install our decals, even the large ones that require piecing together.  It's taken a while, but I'm so glad I finally got this done and hope it provides a good explanation of how to put our decals up. 

If you have any comments on how we can do this better, feel free to let me know so we can improve and possibly work on a new and better video with your feedback!

Enjoy the video!
