Announcement    In my wall decals shop, you will find a large selection of nursery wall decals, growth chart decals as well as tree wall decals and wall stickers. I hope you enjoy my selection of kids wall decals and name decals for your children's room.

Follow me on instagram @designedbeginnings for customer photo's, deals and new designs.

Vinyl decals are an easy and affordable way to change the look of any room. The wall decals are easy to install and remove (they are not reusable). Easy installation instructions will be sent with your order. All vinyl decals are matte, which makes it look more like paint. The matte vinyl adhesive is removable and won't ruin your paint. Because it is removable the adhesive is less sticky so if you have very textured walls, be warned that it may not stick like you would like.

Remember that actual colors my appear differently than on your monitor due to different screen calibrations.

TEXTURED WALLS AND VOC PAINTS: Some textures it will stick to, others it won't. The vinyl has hard time sticking to paint that has both paint and primer in it or other low VOC paints. If your walls have a texture or if you used one of those paints on your walls, contact me for a free test decal before you order.

FYI: If your decal doesn't stick, there are a few tricks you can try to get it to stick. You can try applying it with heat from a blow dryer and pressing it firmly to the wall with the heat. Or place a light fabric like a sheet over it and apply heat from an iron on a low setting to get it to stick. A lot of people have had luck with the iron.

All decals are usually processed 2-3 business days after your order was placed. All US orders are shipped via PRIORITY MAIL for 2-3 day shipping! International orders ship via First Class Mail and can take 2-3 weeks to receive.

Designed Beginnings History

When I had my first baby in 2009, I quit my job as a graphic designer so that I could be home to care for our baby. I bought a vinyl cutter because I no longer had access to one once I quit my job. I used it mostly for my own home decor projects. I somehow found out about etsy and decided to try selling wall decals online since I had made some for our son's nursery.

At first I didn't really put much effort into selling things on Etsy because I was a new mom and was trying to figure out how to take care of an infant. As time went on, I was selling a few items every couple of weeks and knew that if I really worked at it that I would be able to be successful. In the fall of 2011, I did a lot of research and made a bunch of new designs for the shop and eventually the sales became more and more consistant.

I have had to streamline how I process orders because I was getting so many and they were getting to be too much to do on my own. My husband helped me figure out a way for my sister to help process and ship out the orders from her house. My sister and I now have a good process down and are ready for all the orders that come our way. I never would have guessed that this would become as successful as it has become. Thank you for supporting me and buying things from my shop. I am so happy that I can work and at the same time be home for my 4 kids while they are growing up.

    Owner, Designer, Customer Service

    Hi, I'm Ragan, a work at home mom of 3 boys and a girl. I started Designed Beginnings and began selling children's wall decals when I had my first son and quit my job as a graphic designer. I love selling on Etsy and seeing customer photos!

  • Joree

    Order Fulfilment

    Joree is my sister and everyone thinks we are twins, but we are not. Joree has been helping me ship the orders from her home as I have gotten busier. I send her the files and she cuts them and ships them so that I have more time to "run" the shop.

  • Matt

    Head Weeder

    Matt is Joree's husband. He helps her fulfill the orders at night after their 3 kids are in bed. Once the vinyl is cut into the design, it has to be weeded out. He weeds out the vinyl and likes to be called the 'Head Weeder'.

Frequently asked questions
Textured walls and VOC paints

Some textures it will stick to, others it won't. The vinyl has hard time sticking to paint that has both paint and primer in it, flat finish or low sheen pint and most VOC paints. Please know what kind of paint you have before you order. If your walls have a texture or if you used one of those paints on your walls, contact me for a free test decal before you order.

Refunds are not given for decals that don't stick to your walls. I cannot guarantee that my decals will stick to all walls as everyone's walls and paint brand is different. Please contact me for a free sample decal before you purchase to make sure the decal will stick to your wall.

What if my decal doesn't stick?

If you didn't order a test deca and your decal doesn't stick, there are a few tricks you can try to get it to stick. You can try applying it with heat from a blow dryer and pressing it firmly to the wall with the heat. Or place a light fabric like a sheet over it and apply heat from an iron on a low setting to get it to stick. A lot of people have had luck with the iron.

Be aware, refunds will not be given for decals that don't stick. Please order a test sample if you are unsure of your paint or texture.

Can I see a proof of what it will look like?

Yes, you can request a proof of an item by sending me a message when you check out. I will send you a proof back before your items is processed and you can make changes from there if needed.

About the vinyl

The vinyl comes in a high quality matte finish which looks more like paint and is easy to remove. It can be applied to any flat surface. The decals stick to slightly textured surfaces. Vinyl is easy to apply and remove. It will not ruin your paint when you want to remove it, however I cannot be held responsible for any damage it may cause upon removal. Once you remove the decal, you cannot reuse it.

Processing and shipping times

I process all the orders I have on Monday and Thursday nights and they ship out the next day. However, I am a mom of 4 kids and sometimes things happen and your order might sit an extra few days, but that is very, rare.

All orders are sent via priority mail which generally takes 2-3 days from Utah. My turnaround time is quick so that you can receive your decal faster. I do not do any rush or priorty shipping.

Refunds and exchanges

Because you are able to customize your decal with the color of your choice and may not be able to be reused, a 50% refund will be given to you if your decal does not include a name. Items that were purchased with a name cannot be refunded as the item was custom ordered and created. Shipping charges will not be refunded back to you. If you want to cancel your order for a full refund, you must do it within 1 day of your purchase.

Exchanges cannot be made. Contact me if you need a different color and I will send it to you at a reduced rate.

International Shipments

Each country handles customs differently, some countries will make you pay a customs fee in order to receive your package and some don't. Please be aware of how your country handles them before you place your order.

Refunds will not be given for packages that are returned because of unpaid customs fees. I am not responsible for paying extra fees when it comes to customs charges, this is your responsibility.

Be advised that if you liklve in the UK, you will more than likely be required to pay a customs fee before you can receive your package.
