1.) First, squeegee over your lettering to ensure it is sticking firmly to the transfer paper. If applying a 2 part decal, decide which color needs to be applied first, then proceed with the steps below for each part. Small pieces may be applied by hand without masking and measuring if desired.

2.) Then, choose your desired wall location and place your lettering on your wall exactly the way it comes. Use small pieces of masking tape to hold it into place.

3.) Then measure your letters to either the ceiling or floor, whichever is easier to ensure your phrase is straight. Make sure you measure from the letters themselves, not the white paper your letters come on as this may not be straight.

4.) Choose letters at the beginning, middle, and end of your phrase that are similar to each other and are the same level height at the bottoms as each other. (none drop down further than the other).

5.) Measure the distance between the bottoms of these letters and the floor or ceiling to ensure the same distance all along the phrase.

6.) Adjust straightness of phrase as needed by pulling up masking tape, adjusting and re-taping in place.

7.) Once phrase is straight, place a long piece of masking tape down the center of your phrase.

8.) Peel and cut off either the right or left side of backing paper off and hold decal straight out, but away from wall.

9.) Starting from the center, next to the masking tape, using either a squeegee or credit card, rub over the lettering in an up and down motion toward the outer edge of the decal until securely adhered to wall.

10.)Peel off masking tape, then backing paper from opposite side and squeegee the remainder of the decal to the wall.
