OTHER COMMON QUESTIONS
Do you sell your designs as SVGs?
I'm very sorry but I will not sell any of my decals designs as SVGs or any other digital file type. However, I do have a SVG shop on Etsy where you can find many new and creative designs. Check out my new digital shop, Sookie Sachs Design, at https://www.etsy.com/shop/sookiesachsdesign.
What font did you use?
I'm very sorry but I will not provide information regarding the fonts I used in my designs. I spend a lot of time and money choosing fonts for my designs. They are trade secrets. :-)

5 out of 5 starsThis decal is perfect! I'm giving customer service a 5-star even though I didn't have to contact them because of the instructions included with the decal. When they say, "Read the directions first," READ THE DIRECTIONS FIRST!! Which I didn't do. Luckily, I was able to put the decal back to its original shape and apply properly. Looks great, super nice quality. Hopefully, no one will park too close again.

Before ordering a decal, use a ruler to measure the HEIGHT(h) and WIDTH(w) of space you plan on applying your decal. Please note that the symbol " means inches. Also, HEIGHT is abbreviated with h or H and WIDTH is abbreviated with w or W. If only height is listed, that means the width is the same or slightly smaller.
