I'm tackling several outdoor projects to up my home's curb appeal this month, but one of the simplest things I'm doing this spring is to spruce up my mailbox with a little elbow grease and simple, affordable, easy-to-apply vinyl decals. It's usually the first thing anyone sees - and in my rural area, the only way address numbers are displayed. You can never underestimate the power of a first impression, right?<br />
<br />
Here are three easy ways to improve your home's curb appeal too by dressing up that lovely hardworking mailbox - she who receives a steady flow of online purchases (yay!), happy mail from friends and family (super yay!), and even monthly bills (less yay, for sure, but still valuable).<br />
<br />
<h3>
<b><span style="font-size: large;">1. Weed, Trim, Clean up</span></b></h3>
<div>
<b><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></b></div>
Remember, the mailbox is the first thing visitors see and sets the tone for your whole home's curb appeal. Keep her neat and tidy by pulling up the weeds, trimming the grass, and if by chance you've got a chronic litter problem (speaking from experience here, sigh), keep that trash picked up. <br />
<br />
Less than a minute pulling weeds here and there as you go to pick up the mail each day will make a big difference.<br />
<br />
<h3>
<span style="font-size: large;">
2. Plant Flowers</span></h3>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
Spring is the perfect time to add a little color to your mailbox. Clear out an area around it, however large or small works for your space and time. Then plant with anything from wildflower seeds (such a pretty assortment of color and heights) to petunias or marigolds (bright and happy colors) or hostas (lots of big, bushy, vibrant greenery).<br />
<br />
Even a small burst of color (green or otherwise) goes a long way to welcoming guests and making your space lovely and inviting. I went for petunias this year in bright and happy white and red.<br />
<br />
<h3>
<span style="font-size: large;">
3. Add a Mailbox Decal</span></h3>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
In my area, the mailbox is also the address marker for our home and so my address number needs to be big and easy to read. But that doesn't mean it shouldn't also be beautiful!<br />
<br />
Perhaps you thought that vinyl decals for the wall wouldn't work on a mailbox? Not so! Vinyl decals are the perfect complement and come in a myriad of colors and styles to complement your home's style and your own personality. <br />
<br />
Add your last name and monogram to the mailbox for a lovely traditional touch, or bright colored hexagons and circles for a modern flair. Add floral or tree designs for a natural style or something elegant and sophisticated to set the tone. You can even <a href="https://www.wallquotes.com/wall-quotes-design-center">design your own decal </a>for the perfect custom touch.<br />
<br />
Even if all you need are the address numbers, make them pretty!<br />
<br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Large decals make a large impact! Kim contacted us to get a custom design for her beach house.

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Her decal came to 22" tall x 36" wide. We can even go larger to make sure you make the impact you are looking for.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I used Valspar's Ivory Lace for the base - white was too stark for this project. I installed the first layer of vinyl and painted my background color over it. This is ESSENTIAL so the color doesn't bleed. You'll see why later.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">A trend we see every year is taking old traditions in your family and putting a fresh twist on them! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">We worked with AmyBeth to add this super special custom touch to her home. Her Grandmother's cookie recipe is the perfect addition to her space!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">AmyBeth added this to the side of the panel next to her refrigerator. A perfect spot for a decal! It's one of those spaces that you don't normally want to add a nail to hang anything but it such a lovely blank slate waiting for some fun!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I was so inspired by AmyBeth's space, I just had to do this with one of my families recipes too! Here is my version:</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I put mine on a wall that has a pocket door behind it - another perfect place for a decal! This is a recipe that my grandmother used to make all the time and has become a staple at any family gathering.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Then I shared it with my mom who of course wanted one for herself! She doesn't have the wall space in her home for a decal of this size, so I made this design into an Art Print as well! </span></div>

Megan took our <a href="https://www.wallquotes.com/vinyl-wall-art/animals/unicorn-horn-two-color-wall-quotes-wall-art">Unicorn Horn Two Color Wall Quotes™ Wall Art Decal</a> to the next level and I know her little one will love it for so many years to come.</span><br style="background-color: white;" /><span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span><span style="background-color: white;"></span><span style="background-color: white;">She got the 22" tall x 24" wide decal in Black with a Gold Horn. Since our decals don't have any background (not even clear), she was able to cut apart the eyelashes and arrange them how she needed to fit the flowers in. And those flowers are just so beautiful! I'm going to have to find out where she got those.</span><br style="background-color: white;" /><span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span><span style="background-color: white;"></span><span style="background-color: white;">Megan won the $50 in shop credit for our customer photo giveaway this month!

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Today, I am sharing the step-by-step instructions for a DIY Farmhouse Style Sign made with our Wall Quotes™ Stencil Decal.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I shared some of this on my <a href="http://www.belvederedesignsblog.com/2018/10/how-to-diy-farmhouse-sign.html">last DIY post</a> as well, but in case this is your first visit, I'm starting from the beginning! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white;">So first, head over to the </span><a href="https://www.wallquotes.com/" style="background-color: white; color: #8b3234; text-decoration-line: none;">store</a><span style="background-color: white;">, find a decal you love (so many to choose from right?), pick a size, and make sure to order it as a stencil.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white;">I ordered our </span><a href="https://www.wallquotes.com/vinyl-wall-quotes/bathroom-wall-quotes-decals/have-nice-poop-wall-quotes-decal"><span style="color: #8b3234;"><span style="background-color: white;">H</span></span>ave A Nice Poop Wall Quotes™ Decal</a><span style="background-color: white;"><a href="https://www.wallquotes.com/vinyl-wall-quotes/bathroom-wall-quotes-decals/have-nice-poop-wall-quotes-decal"> </a>in the 7" x 11" size.

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">To get started, I joined two scrap pieces of wood I had from another project with my Kreg Jig tool. I am working on 2 signs here. The bathroom sign is the one on the right. I made the base an inch larger than my decal in both directions. So the wood base is 8" tall x 13" wide. </span></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Remember to measure the space you have available and account for any frame or border you will add.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I used my orbital hand sander and make sure the top of the boards were nice a smooth. The smoother this surface, the easier it will be to get a nice crisp edge when painting later. I used three different grades of sandpaper. I started with 60, moved to 120, and finished it up with 360. </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">It was<i> super </i>smooth when I was done.</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I cleaned up the surface of any dust from sanding using mineral spirits on a lint free rag.</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">PS - does anyone else use their table saw as a table when you are out of room in your workshop? haha!</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Carefully flip the decal back onto your surface and smooth it down with the squeegee that is included with every order. If you misplaced your squeegee, you can use any hard plastic card you may have - that old gift card, the frequent shopper card gathering dust in your junk drawer, anything that is hard plastic.</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Peel off the transfer tape, also at a 180° angle. This layer is what was holding all the little bits and pieces in place for you.</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Now comes the fun part! Whatever color you used for the background of the sign, you will paint a light coat over top of all the openings in the vinyl. Your surface should be pretty smooth, but if there are any areas that may bleed underneath, this will seal them up in the same color as the background so you won't have any touch-ups! Woot!</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Then, I wanted my letters to be Black on the White background - classic! I used Valspar "Dark Kettle Black" for the letters. I got a sample size for under $4.00 at Lowes. Win! I used a small brush and did two coats of the black.</span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span></span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I love how the letters are just a bit raised from the thickness of the paint but it is completely permanent!</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Thanks for following along! If you have any questions, comment below or email us info@wallquotes.com </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I'll be sharing a couple of other signs I've made and some variations and options to think about when making them.</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Cheers!</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Liz</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Now it's time to add vinyl! The installation for a stencil is exactly the same for a wall installation so the instructions that are included are super helpful. I trimmed the excess off the decal, centered it on the board, and attached it with painters tape. Whenever we can, your stencil will have an inch of extra vinyl all around the design so you don't get paint onto your background.</span></span></div>

Since I have lots of experience with vinyl, it wasn't a total loss, but unless you are in a huge rush and needed this done yesterday, it is worth a couple of extra hours to let the paint dry.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">When you are taking off the vinyl, it will probably rip, tear and stretch. That is totally fine since we are not saving that part. You should just be able to use your fingernails to get up all the outside sections of the vinyl.</span></span></div>

<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The inside sections are a bit trickier. Hubby has a pick is his stash of tools-that-I-have-no-idea-what-they-are-truly-for and it worked wonders. Or, you can get a set of picks at Harbor Freight for under $10. Or, if you also happen to sew, I believe a T-pin would also work. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">We just love a great quote (I mean it's kind of what we do) in a great space - and Kimberly's is amazing! I mean the light fixture on the wood base and those chairs and the sconces - I could go on. But, the custom decal we worked on just for her is a perfect centerpiece to it all! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">For reference her decal came to 17" tall x 54" wide and is the perfect size for her large space. We are always happy to work on custom designs and within the spaces you have available! </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Kimberly won the $50 in shop credit for our customer photo giveaway this month!

My decal is 6.5" tall x 22" wide. The color doesn't matter as you will be painting the decal on your surface and removing the vinyl.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">To get started, I joined two scrap pieces of wood I had from another project with my Kreg Jig tool. I am working on 2 signs here. The coffee sign is the one on the left. I made the base an inch larger than my decal in both directions. So the wood base is 7.5" tall x 23" wide. Remember to measure the space you have available and account for any frame or border you will add.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I used my orbital hand sander and make sure the top of the boards were nice a smooth. The smoother this surface, the easier it will be to get a nice crisp edge when painting later. I used three different grades of sandpaper. I started with 60, moved to 120, and finished it up with 360. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Once the white was nice and dry, it was time to add vinyl! The installation for a stencil is exactly the same for a wall installation so the instructions that are included are super helpful! I trimmed the excess off the decal, centered it on the board, and attached it with painters tape. Whenever we can, your stencil will have an inch of extra vinyl all around it so you don't get paint onto your background.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Now comes the fun part! Whatever color you used for the background of the sign, you will paint a light coat over top of all the openings in the vinyl. Your surface should be pretty smooth, but if there are any areas that may bleed underneath, this will seal them up in the same color as the background so you won't have any touch-ups! Woot!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">And I got so excited to take off the vinyl and see how it turned out, that I forgot a photo with all the black painted on. But you can see here that I made sure to overlap all the openings really well.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">When you are taking off the vinyl, it will probably rip, tear and stretch. That is totally fine since we are not saving that part. You should just be able to use your fingernails to get up all the outside sections of the vinyl.</span></div>

Or, you can get a set of picks at Harbor Freight for under $10. Or, if you also happen to sew, I believe a T-pin would also work. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">You want to grab the edge of the vinyl and release it from the back enough so you can grab it and peel it off. It take a bit of practice but isn't too difficult. If you do happen to scratch the background just a tad, you can always use a small watercolor brush to touch that up.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I did decide to add a frame around the sign. I used 1x2 furring strips from Lowes. An 8 foot 1x2 was under $2.00! If you are keeping track, I've spent under $6.00 so far other than the cost of the decal. I just used some wood glue and a brad nailer to attach the frame.</span></div>
