Created from Shanna Murray’s delightful drawings and lettering, this line sets itself apart. Simple, charming decals in matte & metallic finishes appear hand-painted, and are at once modern and a nod to nostalgic days gone by.

Born of the belief that we all need a little spot to tuck inspiration in, each piece in the collection is designed to create a perfect spot to celebrate the little things that make us smile. A little happiness for your walls.

Create an ever-changing space to celebrate those little things: a quickly jotted love note, cherished snapshot, or perfect fortune cookie fortune…pin them up inside a sweet garland for a happy reminder each time you pass by. jot a sweet note for one you hold dear, or cheer up your to-do list with a garland chalkboard calendar.

The decals are easy to install, simply peel away the back paper, stick to wall, burnish to wall with tool provided, and carefully peel away top protective paper. Voila, instant cheer! Happiness for your wall. Complete instructions and application tool included.

Decals are created from super thin vinyl, which allows each decal to appear hand painted. Because of the thin nature of the vinyl decals are not reusable, however, they are easily removable from most surfaces. Simply peel off the wall when you’re ready for a change! Damage to walls when removing the decals is not typical, though it cannot be guaranteed.

Decals adhere best to smooth surfaces, though they can be installed on slightly textured walls. Decals can be adhered to walls, windows, mirrors, chalkboards, furniture, laptops, and most any smooth surface you can dream up. Varied designs available in black, white, gold and silver. 24.00 to 48.00.
