Wall decal with custom text – your words for your wall
Some words deserve a special place. With a wall decal with custom text, you can create your very own lettering and turn names, quotes, life mottos or little messages into part of your space.
Choose your own text, the right font and your favourite colour to create a wall decal that perfectly suits you and your home. Whether subtly placed above the sideboard, as a statement in the living room or featuring your child's name in the children's room – your words become personalised wall decor.
Your text. Your style.
You decide what goes on the wall. In the online configurator, enter your custom text and combine it with the font and colour that best suit your room.
This allows you to create completely different looks: minimalist and modern, playful and personal or a deliberate statement.
Ideal for:
- First names and family names
- Favourite quotes and life mottos
- Short statements and messages
- Children's and baby names
- Terms and individual words
- Personal texts for special places
Cut-out letters – with no visible background
Your custom text is not printed on a rectangular sheet of film. Instead, the individual letters are precisely cut from high-quality, self-adhesive film.
After application, only your lettering remains visible on the wall. There is no transparent or white background around the letters – making the text look as if it has been designed directly onto the wall and allowing it to blend particularly harmoniously into the room.
Choose the colour that suits your room
Subtle or high-contrast? Tone-on-tone or a deliberate splash of colour? With a wide selection of colours, you can coordinate your custom text with your wall colour, furniture and existing decor.
On light walls, darker shades create a clear contrast, while light or natural tones can have a particularly calm effect. On colourful walls, your lettering can be used deliberately as an accent.
This turns the same text into a completely different look – perfectly suited to your personal interior style.
Personalised wall decor for every room
A wall decal with custom text does not need much space to add personality to a room. Even a single word can purposefully decorate an empty wall area and visually complement furniture or other decor.
Your custom text looks especially beautiful:
- above the sofa or sideboard in the living room
- above the bed in the bedroom
- with a name in the nursery or children's room
- in the hallway or entrance area
- in the home office or study
- in studios, practices and small commercial spaces
Find the right size and position
To ensure that your wall text looks harmonious in the room later, you should consider not only the entire wall but, above all, the actually available space.
For example, use the width of a sideboard, bed or desk as a guide and consider the effect you want to achieve. A small lettering creates a subtle accent, while a wide text deliberately becomes an eye-catcher.
Our tip: Before ordering, mark the planned size on the wall with masking tape. Then view the area from different positions in the room. This will help you assess the proportions more accurately.
Easy to apply with transfer film
To ensure that even cut-out letters remain precisely in the intended position, your wall decal is delivered ready for application on transfer film.
The transfer film holds the complete lettering together during application. Position your wall decal, transfer the letters onto the prepared surface and then remove the transfer film.
All that remains is your custom text – neatly aligned and with no visible background.
For a beautiful result, the surface should be smooth, clean, dry and free of dust. For freshly painted or heavily textured walls, you should check in advance whether the surface is suitable for the film.
Small change, personal impact
Wall decor does not always have to be a major makeover. Sometimes a name, a sentence or a few words are enough to give a room a truly personal meaning.
With your wall decal with custom text, you can create exactly the lettering that belongs to you and your space – personalised in text, font and colour and ready for a special place on your wall.
Frequent Questions on Wall decal with custom text
Which walls are suitable for a wall decal?
Suitability depends on the surface, coating, and product. Compare the existing surface with the information on the product page.
How do I find the right wall decal size?
Measure the actual available wall space and take furniture, doors, windows, and viewing distance into account. Mark out the planned outer contour at its original size to check the proportions.
How do I position a wall decal above a piece of furniture?
Use the center of the furniture, the wall axis or another visible reference line. Check the position from several viewing angles and allow sufficient distance from edges and light fixtures.
Can a wall decal adhere to a textured wall?
Heavy textures can affect the contact surface. The instructions for the specific product are decisive; test unclear surfaces in an inconspicuous area.
Can I apply a wall decal to a freshly painted wall?
Observe the complete drying and curing time of the wall paint used, as well as the product specifications. A wall that is dry on the surface is not necessarily fully cured.
What preparation does the wall need?
The surface should be suitable according to the product specifications, clean, dry, and free of dust or loose particles. Plan the position and alignment before removing the backing material.
Can a wall decal be removed later?
The result depends on the product, surface, wall coating, and length of use. Check the product-specific information and proceed with particular care on delicate walls.
How do I plan a wall decal in a child’s room?
Take the bed, play area, furniture height and any future rearrangements into account. Choose the design and position so that the wall décor also looks great from typical eye levels.
Assessing Wall Design in the Room: Size, Sightline and Spacing
The desired effect is created by the relationship between the design, the open wall space and the existing furniture. Measure the usable width and height, and mark the planned outer contour at its actual size. Then view the position from the room’s typical viewing directions.
Consistent spacing connects individual pictures or designs into a harmonious composition. Take doors, windows, lights and furniture into account, as they may conceal parts of the wall. For wall decals, also check whether the specific surface is suitable according to the product information.
- measure the usable wall area rather than the entire wall
- simulate the design size with an actual-size outline
- define the sightline and relationship to the furniture
- take spacing and future use of the room into account
