Feature product: In this house wall sticker

Cozy living room with 'In This House' wall art listing family values like love, fun, and forgiveness

With its clean design and powerful effect our In This House wall sticker has been a long standing favourite for the home. Here are a few tips on getting the most out of your In This House sticker and a few pitfalls to avoid.

1. Location

As with most of our stickers the location is important but with a piece like this it is even more crucial. This is a statement piece that was made to be seen by the whole family and guests alike. As a result the bedroom really is not it’s ideal location. With it’s strong Square edges this decal was designed for and looks best in Entrance halls and beside doors. If you don’t have wall space in your entrance hall the back door is also a great location if you have one. If none of this works there is always scope to get this up on your living room wall as a declaration of the culture of your house.

2. Customise

You don’t need us to tell you that your family is unique, so why not show off your family’s values with a personalised Sticker? Created in the same style as our original In This House sticker we offer the option for you to fill out your own text that truly says something individual about your home. And don’t worry being individual doesn’t have to cost the earth, our custom range starts from just £34.

3. Holistic design

You may have read it here before and you will likely read it again because it is key; consider the whole room your sticker is going in. Just because this product is a list of text does not mean that it isn’t also simultaneously a piece of art and deserves to be treated as such. Try to pick the location that you are going to place it before you order and then choose a colour that will fit the scene. If you are unsure of what will work in your space neutral colours like greys are a safe bet.

Finally, this product needs to be applied level, skewed text on your wall won’t look great. A spirit level might come in handy.
