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!

Decorating with Wall Words - Bible Verses

Words on the wall are probably the most meaningful use of decals today - from favourite quotes, to songs, bible verses, or in the form of monograms, decals have transformed bare walls into ones with meaning and a source of inspiration in the homes of many.  

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

Love is Patient - 1 Corinthians 13:4-8

Magnify The Lord - Psalm 34:3

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!

Decorate with Headboard Decals


Launching our all new range of Headboard Decals! These will add an instant edgy update to your bedrooms so quickly and easily, now you have even more reason to decorate! Say goodbye to boring (or non-existing) bedframes!

We are very excited (and proud of) our customisable headboards which you can personalise with your initials to make it all the more personal (since it's in your bedroom)! Check out the BaRoque and Mr & Mrs designs! All designs are original and created by Decorette and cannot be found anywhere else!

Additional "legs" also come with all designs so you can add these to the bottom of the headboard decals and make them stand from the ground up.  This is perfect for beds that do not have any frames  or headboards behind them.

Or if you already have a headboard (like the picture above), you can stick these above the existing headboards so them seem to sit on top of your headboard - this adds an even funkier and interesting look to your bedrooms!

All designs are available in Single (36" wide), Queen (60" wide) or King (72" wide) size, or you can always contact us to create one to fit the size of your bed.

Installation at NTU Innovation Centre

So our customer asked us to create an "urban street feel" for their new cafe at NTU's Innovation Centre and we were more than happy to be a part of their project. I love decorating new places and giving them a totally new look with Decorettes!

As a place for people to come and share new ideas (hence the name "Pitchstop"), they wanted some designs that would help tie in with this theme, so here's what we come up with! We hope you like  these as much as we enjoyed designing and putting them up!

Oh, and if you are a student at NTU, do pay them a visit and give them your support! It's a lovely place to just chill and hang out, have a beer... whilst admiring our decals :)
