I’m Claire of
Decal Folk and I design and create Wall Decals // Wall Stickers. I design
cool, creative and custom Wall Decals from a tiny hamlet in South Cheshire,
from the Boot Room of my even tinier cottage! I’m surrounded by two castles,
several farms and lots of beautiful countryside.. I love where I live as I’m a
very (very!) outdoorsy person. I’m a total weekend warrior and you’ll find me,
my son and his Dad and our dog up a mountain or riding downhill trails on our
mountain bikes most weekends.
After teaching
in a primary school for most of my working life- I started to long for freedom-
both creatively and with my work / life balance. With the support from my
fiancé (who worked in Graphic Design when were younger) I left my job and
started Decal Folk! It is still evolving and growing but I LOVE it! All my
designs are original – meaning they are designed by me and inspired by my son
and our lifestyle and every time an order comes through I totally do that happy
dance thing and feel so ecstatic that my designs are in people’s homes across
the world! Occasionaly my work / life balance isn’t quite in check- (think late
night completing of orders) but I am absolutely not complaining and would not
change it!
As I said, I
love the outdoors and feel inspired by the adventure it provides and I think
this shows in my designs, I also dabble in cool-ness (think Batman / Star Wars) as I have a 13 year old son who is cool and I also draw inspiration
by designing decals for him..
Along with the
decals on my shop, I also design custom decals, be that children’s names in a
Star Wars font, a family surname decal or a particular sized / shape design and
‘seasonal’ decals too. I also create decals for businesses, be that
exhibition stickers or I recently created some custom vinyl lettering for a
Wedding Hire company who hire out lightboxes- the lettering is used to
personalise the lightboxes and they look AWESOME! I love designing custom decals!
Decal Folk
Wall Decals are made with a specialist interior vinyl that is made to be long
lasting but easy to remove, they can be applied to most smooth, clean, hard
surfaces- not just walls- think windows, mirrors, furniture- I had one customer
who stuck her decals on her daughters Drawers and Toybox! Not only do they
enable you to be really creative- they are easy to apply and easy to remove!
And they’re also not just for children- they can look pretty awesome as grown
up décor too!
