We have very exciting news today -- we're guest blogging over at Brooklyn Limestone as part of Mrs. Limestone's "Conquered Clutter" series! We're excited for our very first guest post, so much so that we're going to be talking about the behind the scenes of our adventure over here. In honor of our first ever guest post (that we hope looked effortless and wonderful), we want to fill you in on a little secret. We busted our butts to get the project done and had no idea that we were going to do this project when we agreed to do the post. Shhh, don't tell Mrs. Limestone. It all started a couple of weeks ago when Wendy openly and unapologetically called me out in front of the whole Internet about my messy wood shop/basement. You remember the post, right? So unfair ;-). Well, that same day Wendy saw a post on Brooklyn Limestone seeking a few guest bloggers that were interesting in tackling closet organization as part of a 2012 clutter reduction commitment. We had just made this same commitment to ourselves, so it seemed like a perfect fit. Wendy sent an email over letting Mrs. Limestone know we were interested in participating,...

Meet our multifunctional magnetic wall sticker for endless creative adventures. Let your imagination run wild discover the magic of with the magnetic wall sticker. The sticker can be used with: magnets, crayons, markers, washable paint, magnetic tiles and much more. Unsuitable surfaces: - Surface treated with dirt-repellent paint or washable paint - Structured surface / uneven surface - Allow a newly painted surface to dry for at least 4 weeks Details: Beautiful design wall sticker arch available in 6 trendy colours: Light pink, Sky Blue, Vivid Blue, Sand, Black and Grey Dimensions: 100cm x 60cm (39.37 inches x 23.62 inches) Self-adhesive: Easy to install with a removable self-adhesive adhesive layer Magnetic: Transform your wall into a functional display and play space with the magnetic feature. Dry Erase Board: Say goodbye to traditional dry erase boards! Our magnetic wall decal offers flexibility for notes, doodles, and schedules. Details to note: Large tiles like Magna-Tiles and Connetix don’t hold as well as a single piece, but the more magnets you add, the more magnetic weight they can hold. The mini Magna-Tiles won’t work well on the magnetic sticker. Magnetic letters, numbers, and similar items do work well because they are lighter. Also, the smoother the wall, the better the sticker will stick. Feel free to experiment to see what works best for you. Please ensure there is enough space for proper adhesion before applying our decal. We do not recommend removing and reapplying the adhesive as this may weaken the adhesive. The sticker is only suitable for a flat surface. In some cases it may be necessary to use additional double-sided tape for extra adhesion if the wall is not completely smooth. The sticker is delivered rolled up, which causes wrinkles in the sticker. Roll out the sticker and leave it unrolled for 24-48 hours before applying the sticker The magnetic wall sticker arch consists of two layers that are glued together. The bottom is the magnetic layer and the top is the colored multifunctional layer. Because the sticker consists of two parts and the material works due to weather influences, a light black edge of the bottom layer may be visible. This is because the top layer shrinks and stretches due to weather influences. While we take great care to ensure the quality and integrity of our products, please understand that Stickerkamer cannot be held responsible for any damage that may occur during the application and removal of our multifunctional wall sticker. The magnetic sticker arch is a heavy sticker because of its magnetic properties and the adhesive layer is a permanently adhering adhesive layer. Removing the sticker will in most cases be problem-free but there is a chance that the paint/surface will be damaged. Stickerkamer is not responsible for damage to the surface when removing the sticker. Disclaimer for images and colors: Please note that while we do our best to accurately display product colours on our website, variations may occur due to individual monitor settings and lighting conditions. We recommend consulting product photos on our social media for further insight into colour accuracy.
