<content:encoded><![CDATA[<span style="text-decoration: none;">I blogged a few weeks back about </span>Teddi Pettigrew&#39;s fab &quot;wine wall.&quot; I posted the artwork we did for her; today I have a photo of her completed Graffiti wall art. Teddi says ...<br /><p>&quot;This is right outside the door to our wine cellar. I had the idea and contacted the designer at Wonderful Graffiti and he was great to work with. He sent several idea and was willing to work with my changes until I got just what I was looking for. It was a fun project and we customized it even more by putting our name on the wine bottle.</p><p>Thanks, Teddi!</p><br /><p><a href="http://blog.wonderfulgraffiti.com/.a/6a01053708b1f8970b0120a915cf5d970b-popup" onclick="window.open( this.href, &#39;_blank&#39;, &#39;width=640,height=480,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0&#39; ); return false" style="display: inline;"><img alt="Pettigrew photo" class="asset asset-image at-xid-6a01053708b1f8970b0120a915cf5d970b " src="http://blog.wonderfulgraffiti.com/.a/6a01053708b1f8970b0120a915cf5d970b-320wi" /></a></p><br /><p></p><p><br /> </p><div class="feedflare">

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Walmart sells tubes of &quot;wall decals&quot; for $10 on an end cap in their home decor department. I bought one and discovered why it was only $10. Their vinyl wall decals are NOTHING like Wonderful Graffiti. </p><p>Walmart decals are plastic stickers with the art printed on them. Like thick Scotch tape with lines draw on it with a felt tip marker. See top photo.</p><p>Each letter and embellishment of Walmart decals has to be positioned on the wall separately. The long swirly parts stick to themselves. </p><p>You have to draw lines on the wall to get everything level, but there&#39;s no way to get the correct spacing between the letters.&#0160; Getting appropriate spacing between letters and words is called kerning. Any designer will tell you that kerning plays a critical part in the art of typography.</p><p>Directions say &quot;Peel decal from backing paper. Apply to clean, dry surface.&quot; That&#39;s helpful. </p><p>See bottom photo to see hideous plastic shine. </p><p>I&#39;ll admit I applied these decals in about ten minutes, without a level, but the fact remains:</p><p>&#0160;<a href="http://">Wonderful Graffiti</a> is NOTHING like $10 Walmart decals. </p><p></p><p></p><br /><p></p><br /><p></p><p><a href="http://blog.wonderfulgraffiti.com/.a/6a01053708b1f8970b01310f68fd50970c-popup" onclick="window.open( this.href, &#39;_blank&#39;, &#39;width=640,height=480,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0&#39; ); return false" style="display: inline;"><img alt="IMG_3314" class="asset asset-image at-xid-6a01053708b1f8970b01310f68fd50970c " src="http://blog.wonderfulgraffiti.com/.a/6a01053708b1f8970b01310f68fd50970c-320wi" /></a> <br /><a href="http://blog.wonderfulgraffiti.com/.a/6a01053708b1f8970b0120a9022d3d970b-popup" onclick="window.open( this.href, &#39;_blank&#39;, &#39;width=640,height=480,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0&#39; ); return false" style="display: inline;"><img alt="IMG_3315" class="asset asset-image at-xid-6a01053708b1f8970b0120a9022d3d970b " src="http://blog.wonderfulgraffiti.com/.a/6a01053708b1f8970b0120a9022d3d970b-320wi" /></a> <br /><a href="http://blog.wonderfulgraffiti.com/.a/6a01053708b1f8970b01310f690057970c-popup" onclick="window.open( this.href, &#39;_blank&#39;, &#39;width=640,height=480,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0&#39; ); return false" style="display: inline;"><img alt="IMG_3316" class="asset asset-image at-xid-6a01053708b1f8970b01310f690057970c " src="http://blog.wonderfulgraffiti.com/.a/6a01053708b1f8970b01310f690057970c-320wi" /></a> <br /> <img alt="" src="file:///Users/aearley/Desktop/IMG_3316.JPG" /></p><div class="feedflare">
