So ExpressionsVinyl has all this fun Patterned Adhesive Vinyl. and I literally walk around my house trying to find stuff to stick it on.

and guess what got the makeover today....

My Kitchenaid. I love it so much. Time to prettify her up.

FIRST: This is not a project for cutters--so even if you don't have a vinyl cutter machine you don't have to feel out of the loop.

SECOND: The Kitchenaid is a curved surface and it takes a little time and finesse to get it on smooth.

first. oh wait. I already said first.

what number are we on..

Oh. Third. Cut your vinyl to size...

You are going to have to refer to this tutorial

After you read that it will be a little more smooth going for you.

You will start peeling and sticking....

My Kitchenaid has this black rubber screwy thing right on the side....

which was causing the vinyl to ripple...so i just took an exacto knife...

and cut right around it....be careful. vinyl is thin and cuts really easy...

Then I just continued on peeling and sticking and rubbing the wrinkles out.

You can see at the rounded head of the Kitchenaid it starts to crease... a lot...

So now i'm going to direct you to THIS tutorial (ha! you are all over today!)

This tutorial is basically just going to reinforce the fact that if you have a curved surface...and straight vinyl...it isn't going to happen.

You need to cut small pieces and lay them out. (luckily this polka dot is pretty easy to work with.

If you get a wrinkle...work it out...

You can take your exacto knife and trim excess off. (this is the slow part that i was talking about in number two.)

The fact of the matter is...you will probably have some wrinkles. (don't we all at some point)

Don't sweat the small ones. if you get too big of ones you can slowly peel it up and try to work it back down. (botox for vinyl)

Because it's worth it..

Check out this awesome baby.

and guess what's next on my list of things to be adorned with vinyl...

so excited!!! come visit me at my blog anytime
