No Comments Adding Chalkboard Vinyl To Custom Signs And Other Custom Interior Items
Heading Back To School
With feeling of fall in the air and the children heading back to school to work on their ABC’s, we thought we would take this opportunity to give you a few lessons on adding chalkboard to your custom interior signs and other items.
Chalkboard Signs
Here at The Sign Depot we are quite familiar with chalkboard paint and how it can be used for custom sign applications. Using chalkboard paint to create an artistic sign in can be very labour intensive. There are many quick at home do it yourself chalkboard paint tutorials, but is a lot of sanding, priming and painting required in order to give a custom interior sign a professional look.
If you don’t require an actual board we have second option to help customize your signs and other custom interior items. We have added Chalkboard Vinyl to our lineup of vinyl products. Chalkboard vinyl is quick way to add an artistic element to your custom signs decor items. It is especially handy for those that are constantly changing their specials on for their business. It gives you the flexibility to change menu items, add some quick messaging and add daily deals without creating a new sign each day.

De – VINYL Intervention Using Vinyl Graphics and Decals
The Change-Up
Sometimes the simplest items can be transformed with just a few additions. A great example of this is a stainless steel bar fridge becoming a collector’s item by adding a few artistic extras to the front of it.
This hum-drum, run of the mill appliance came in looking like this
and with the addition of some digitally printed vinyl graphics, will be leaving as the showpiece for upcoming Super Bowl giveaway at a local establishment. The artistic sign decals transformed the bar fridge into a promotional product, branded to advertise the business doing the giveaway.
Changing the outside of the refrigerator door, did not change how the appliance works, but gave it a unique look and changed it into a “collectible”
All it takes is a little inspiration to change everyday items into “must have” and “one of kind” items. The use of vinyl decals and digitally printed vinyl graphics can transform the ordinary to the extraordinary.
Simple Steps To Using Vinyls
- Know what type of surface you’re applying your vinyl to
- Make sure to measure (& then measure again)
- Take time to consider the colour scheme surrounding the object
- Ensure your vinyls are applied by a professional
Somethings Are Better Left To The Imagination
Not every surface should be left untouched. The Jennifer Brouwer Design Blog featured chalkboard paint as a design element. Chalkboard paint can be messy if not applied to a properly sanded surface. Why not try it vinyl form? Chalkboard vinyl is the newest addition to our vinyl lineup. Now it has me pinning what projects would look great in our new Chalkboard Vinyl.
