So, what are
WALLIES?
Wallies are pre-pasted, vinyl-coated
wallpaper cutouts.
Each pack of WALLIES contains 25 cutouts.
Do I have to
cut them out myself?
No. WALLIES come already die-cut in each unique shape.
Do I need to
use wallpaper paste to put them up?
No. WALLIES are pre-pasted. You just wet
the back of the Wallies with a wet sponge for a few seconds
and then stick them to the wall. It is so easy.
Can
I get them off once I stick them up?
Yes. WALLIES are made to be durable and to stay
put once they are up, but when you are ready to take them off
they can be stripped off by wetting them again.
Can I hang
them in a moist bathroom?
Yes. WALLIES are vinyl-coated so they
can be washed and they can withstand the moisture in a
bathroom. Just don’t put them right in the shower. Direct
water flow will cause them to strip off.
Where can I
put WALLIES?
WALLIES are perfect for walls, of
course. But they also work great on furniture, clay or ceramic
pots, picture frames, craft items, floor and table runners,
wooden hope chests, lampshades, gift wrapping, invitations,
bulletin boards....the list is nearly endless. The only place
you can’t stick WALLIES is on slick plastic surfaces.
Will WALLIES
hurt the surface underneath when I take them off?
No. WALLIES are made to strip off
without damage to the surface.
Can I put
them on existing wallpaper?
Yes.
Are
WALLIES safe for scrapbooking?
Scrapbookers love WALLIES. Unfortunately
the cutouts are not 100% acid-free. However many people have
gotten around this problem by spraying the WALLIES with
products like Archival Mist® or by placing archival quality
papers between the WALLIES and their treasured photos. We
suggest you do what feels right to you. Their acidity is only
slight.
Are WALLIES
easy enough for my kids to decorate their own rooms?
You bet.
Can I use
WALLIES for decoupage?
Absolutely! Just wet the back and stick
them on and seal them like you would any decoupage cutout. See
our projects
page for some great ideas.
How many
WALLIES does it take to decorate a room?
Well, it’s hard to say. Obviously it
depends on the size of your room. Each WALLIES package
contains 25 cutouts. Some are larger than others: for instance
the Noah’s Ark is 6 1/2 inches wide while the Purple Pansy
is just 2 inches wide. As a general rule you can usually do a
thorough job with one pack for a small room, like a bathroom,
and 3 packs for a normal bedroom. We suggest you use your best
judgment.
