So for ages I have wanted to paint my fridge… and freezer… and washing machine, dishwasher, tiles, doors etc etc etc but I had to stop my plans because of A)lack of funds and B)the fact that we don’t actually OWN this flat and our landlady might not like it.
So I looked to other ways for decorating and came across a lot of vinyl decal inspiration and was soon on etsy.com finding something right for us…
I looked at plants, trees, patterns and lots of animals but I wanted something a bit different- especially for the kitchen. Then I saw the perfect thing for our fridge and freezer:
And this is how we did it… well Stephen did it- I took pictures and said ‘wow’ a lot.

| First place the sticker and tape in place… |
 |
|||
| Then take off the backing (bottom) layer… |
NB- You may need to manipulate the vinyl to stick to the top layer, Stephen was very good at this as he has longer nails than me!
 |
| Use something hard but gentle to rub onto the surface (we used a pencil) |
 |
| Then peel off the top layer… |
 |
| Hobbes didn’t know what to make of them!! |
 |
| They look AMAZING! So happy! |
I loved doing this and did one myself that the lovely seller sent with the cutlery.
I’ve now got the bug (get it… ladybird…bug…hahahha!)- I want something big for the sitting room, colourful for the bathroom and I love the idea of stickering the white tiles in the kitchen too.
