Hooked on Cool Wall Decals

by hookedonhouses on March 12, 2009

Welcome to this week’s Hooked on Fridays blog carnival! Today I’m hooked on these Dali Wall Decals. I first discovered them over at Nonnie Bear and thought they were just so cool. What an easy and inexpensive way to change the look of a room! And when you get tired of them, you can peel them off and try something new. As I looked through their website, my mind started reeling with the possibilities.

Each decal comes in all sorts of colors to choose from. To see the options for this bird-on-a-branch, for example, click here.

I was watching Make Me a Supermodel (I’m such a sucker for reality TV) and noticed they had a chandelier decal like this in their house. Hmmm. I wonder if I would look taller and thinner, more “supermodel-like” if I used one of these in my house? Might be worth a shot.

My 6-year old loves animals and got excited when she saw this chimp. “I want this in my room!” she said. Um, I’ll have to think about that. Whether birds or chimps are more your style, I bet you’ll find something you’d like at the Dali Decal website. I’m excited to have them as one of my new sponsors. Check them out!

Now it’s your turn to tell us what you’re hooked on today! If you have something to share with us on your blog, then add your link below. Just please be sure to:

Oh how I LOVE that “B”!!! If I ever find a headboard for my room, that is SO going above it! Thanks for the links.

This is fun. I appreciate seeing everyone else’s addictions. I wish I had the type of home for decals. But I don’t. In my apartment days, I would definitely have considered it.

Angela, your husband is right. We’ve always had a rule about never putting anything over the bed that might kill us. I don’t know where you live, but in L.A. it’s a real issue.

Hey Julia. What a fun party. I have been search of the perfect chandelier wall decal but haven’t found it yet.
Blessings

I love the wall decals! I have seen several of these shops on Etsy. There are some great finds for every room.

for some reason i think there might be a problem with my comments getting posted.:( just wanted to say thanks for hosting and glad i discovered your blog!

6 angela | the painted house March 13, 2009 at 8:17 pm

Gosh, those are so much fun! What an easy and inexpensive way to fill a wall. My fave is bird on a wire.

Aren’t they a dream come true?! I have to refrain myself from putting one in every room. Thanks for the shout out!!

For my money http://www.wonderfulgraffiti.com has the most incredible wall decals. Mary of WG basically created the entire industry of interior type-ography, if you will. She is amazing and so is the graffiti!

Sorry I am on here twice. I am new to Mr. Linky. I love the wall decals. I found some cool ones on Etsy. I am not sure where to add them to my walls yet. I was thinking about putting one in my master bedroom but I have not yet started with the decor for that room. Anywho, love you blog. I have been checking in on your blog for a while. I would love for you to come over and check out my blog. Blessings

OH! Thanks for posting about those wall decals. I’ve been looking for something like that for my upstairs game room. I’m going to add my link for what I’m hooked on. :D

15 laura @ the shore house March 15, 2009 at 10:34 pm

Ooooo…I would like the chandelier for my office…As in my day-job office. I would love to see the look on my boss’ face!! :-) Plus it would put a little glamour in a space that otherwise sucks the life out of me.

Speaking of work…right now I’m hooked on business plans. But that’s not very fun so I didn’t link up, lol. ;-)

I love your site!! I’m definitely hooked on houses. I love decorating, but mostly painting. Check out my blog to see my portfolio. My expertise is in paint, but I’m going back to school in August to get a degree in Interior Design and Space Planning. Yippee!!
