For awhile now I wanted to bring in a black-n-white piece of wall art in the master bedroom. It had to be something other than a canvas painting, mirror or photo frames, since we already had those. I started looking for different materials for wall art- metal, wood, ceramic...and finally settled for a vinyl decal.
Vinyl decals come in SO many varieties, there are websites full of options and I kept browsing and browsing. Finally I realized that we need to bring in the 'glamour' factor in our room and decided on a chandelier decal.
At one of my Michaels haul's, I picked up the decal, a big piece of canvas and some jewels (I needed jewels for another project too, you will hear about that soon ;) ). As part of my long-term plan, I did not want to apply the decal directly on the wall because I wanted to keep the option of moving it in the future. This is one of the rules that I have been applying to all my decor pieces - nothing should be permanent, I want to always have the option of moving pieces around.
Honestly, this was a 20 minute project. I started by sticking the decal on the canvas. This one came in 4 pieces and I just had to put it together one by one.
Once the glue was dry, it was ready to go on the wall. It was super light-weight and all I needed was a couple of push-pins.
Below are a couple of angles to see how it fits in with the rest of the room.
I have to say that I have a new found love for vinyl decals..they are so much fun and add a lot of personality to your space. If you ever rocked the decal look in your house, do share!

Once I got the decal in place, I played around with the jewels. I positioned/re-positioned them to get 'the look', before glueing them down. I used a heavy-duty glue to make sure that they never fall off!
