Anthony’s Ribbon Wall Gets An Upgrade With Style And Apply
We have somehow become a “horse” family. Never in a million years did I think that would happen but here we are – owners of FOUR horses… Not one, not two, not even three – but FOUR!
For me caring for the horses, loving them and occasional trail rides are enough. Maybe next year I will venture into the world of a Hunter Pace event but I don’t really do much more than that. I like the horse cuddles and love more than riding them. The kids however like riding. Our daughter is a jumper and our son – well he does whatever. He is autistic and is happy no matter what he does.
Occasionally he does compete in schooling shows and is very proud of his ribbons. We have them hung above his chalkboard wall that we painted. However, it is a giant black wall and really lacking for any type of style. Thanks to Style and Apply – he now has an awesome giant vinyl decal, in orange, that stands out very well on his black chalkboard background. His ribbons are now highlighted directly above his decal.
Applying the decal is easy – I didn’t get any photos of the application process though because my “photographer” ended up helping me apply the decal. It was so large that we really needed to keep both sides working at the same time to avoid any mishaps. If you have never applied a decal before it is an easy process – you just need to take your time and not rip the decal.
First, we laid the entire decal, as it is received, on the kitchen floor and used a can to roll across the entire decal. This process allows us to pull off the backing while having the decal still stick to the transfer side (sticky side). We then pulled the backing off very slowly. The backing is a thick piece of paper – once it is removed you are left with the decal stuck to a tacky transfer page. Place the full transfer page on to the wall you would like the decal to appear on. Once it is “stuck” to the wall (kind of like removable clear contact paper) we took the can again and rolled it across the entire image. This process was initially used to stick the decal to the transfer page. Using this same process now pushes the decal image off the transfer page and onto the wall. The last step is to slowly remove the tacky transfer page. If the decal still sticks to it (remember you are removing it very slowly), simply push it back down, roll the can more thoroughly over that same spot and pull the transfer paper down a little more. Baby steps… That is my version of how to apply but you can see their instructional video HERE.
Style And Apply has so many awesome wall decals. We went with horses for obvious reasons. Check out this amazing map decal – we almost asked for this one at first because it is totally cool but I just had to stick with a horse theme.
Decals are available for holidays even – what a great way to quickly decorate a wall above a fireplace for Christmas.

I used to competitively horseback ride!! I lived for those ribbons! The memories swirling in my brain right now, wow, nostalgic over here!
Love the look over the fireplace. These decals are so cool and look easy to apply
OHH I love that globe one! I am in love with traveling so decorating my house with something like that would be cool!
This is a great way to showcase those ribbons! I love decals! They make changing up your space so simple and easy and because it is so simple and easy you can change it up quite often because they are also pretty cheap compared to painting a whole room or buying standout pieces. These are very versatile for those who like to change things up as often as I do. I have tons of decals! 😉
I love the world map decal! It’s pretty cool! What a fun way to decor your home!
I love it. This is an awesome way to display his ribbons! I have used decals and they are a great way to decorate. So easy to apply.
I love the ornament decal over the fireplace. So trendy and chic.
I haven’t been on a horse in a long, long time. I love the decal you were able to get for him. Congratulations on his ribbons and I think it is awesome your kids are able to have horses. I am also happy for you to be able to have them and enjoy their time in your life.
I’ve never heard of this company before, but they’re decals are amazing. I love the map and globes over the fireplace. They’re both very relaxing and intriguing to look at. I’ll have to look and see what great decals they have for my son’s room perhaps, thanks for sharing!
What a cool way to display those ribbons! I think Style and Apply is a great way to up your design game.
Fun idea for kids rooms as they grow so quickly & their interests change, so decals can change with them. Thanks for sharing
This is such an adorable decal. This has to be something that is treasured in the room.
