How to Store and Reuse Lollistix Fabric Wall Decals
One of the best things about Lollistix fabric wall decals is that they aren't necessarily a one-and-done decorating choice. Our peel-and-stick wall decals can be carefully removed and reused a few times, making it easy to move them to another wall, redecorate a room, or save them for future use.
But what happens if you want to remove your decals and don't plan to use them again right away?
If you saved the original backing paper that came with your Lollistix wall decals, you're already one step ahead. Simply place the decals back onto the backing paper for storage.
Didn't save it? No problem. Wax paper can be used to temporarily store your fabric wall decals and help protect the adhesive until you're ready to use them again.
Here's how to properly remove, store, and reuse your Lollistix wall decals.
What You'll Need
- Backing paper or Wax paper
- A clean, dry, flat surface
- Scissors, if needed
Step 1: Cut Your Wax Paper
Cut sheets of wax paper large enough to comfortably hold your decals.
For smaller decals, one sheet may be all you need. Larger wall decals may require several overlapping sheets.
Lay the wax paper flat on a clean, dry surface before removing your decals from the wall.
Step 2: Carefully Remove Your Wall Decals
Before removing your decals, gently brush away any dust or debris from the surface.
Starting at an edge, slowly peel the fabric wall decal away from the wall. Take your time, especially with larger designs, and avoid allowing the adhesive side of the decal to fold over and stick to itself.
Lollistix decals are made from a soft, peel-and-stick polyester fabric rather than traditional vinyl, which makes them flexible and easy to work with when carefully removing and repositioning them.
How to Store Smaller Wall Decals
If your decals are smaller than the width of the wax paper, simply place each decal down with the adhesive side against the wax paper.
Leave a little space between each decal so they don't overlap.
Gently smooth out any large bubbles, but avoid rubbing or pressing aggressively across the printed surface.
How to Store Large Wall Decals
For oversized wall decals, having two people makes the process much easier.
Carefully peel the decal from the wall and place it adhesive-side up on a clean, flat surface.
Gently lay a sheet of wax paper over the exposed adhesive. If you need additional sheets, overlap each new piece of wax paper by approximately one inch until the entire adhesive surface is covered.
This creates a temporary protective backing that helps keep the adhesive clean while the decal is being stored.
Step 3: Roll and Store Your Wall Decals
Once your decals are protected, keep the printed side facing outward and loosely roll them for storage.
Do not tightly roll, fold, crease, or place heavy objects on top of your decals.
Store the roll in a cool, clean, dry location where it won't be crushed or bent.
When you're ready to decorate again, simply unroll your decals, carefully remove the wax paper, and peel and stick them onto your wall.
Can Lollistix Wall Decals Be Reused?
Yes! Lollistix peel-and-stick fabric wall decals can be removed, repositioned, and reused a few times when handled and stored carefully.
That makes them especially convenient when you want to:
- Rearrange a room
- Move a decal to another wall
- Update a nursery or child's bedroom as they grow
- Decorate an apartment, dorm, classroom, or rental
- Temporarily remove seasonal decorations
- Save decals for a future decorating project
Unlike traditional vinyl stickers, Lollistix wall decals are made from 100% polyester adhesive fabric with a soft matte finish that helps the artwork look more like it's painted on the wall than stuck on top of it.
They're designed to make decorating simple: peel, stick, reposition, and change your mind.
Keep Your Lollistix Decals Ready for Their Next Wall
Whether you're moving, redecorating, or simply changing things up, properly storing your Lollistix reusable fabric wall decals can help keep them clean and ready for their next use.
Save the original backing paper whenever possible. If it's long gone, wax paper offers an easy storage solution using something you may already have in your kitchen.
When you're ready for a new look, just unroll, peel, and stick.
