Eiffel Tower Ooh La La Paris Vinyl Wall Decal Sticker (72"H x 39"W, Black)

Just this week, I received and installed my Eiffel Tower and Ooh La La graphics to my bathroom wall. I live in an apartment, and I am limited in painting or major items covering the wall. This vinyl lettering is the perfect solution, because you can easily peel it off when you are ready to move out and it leaves no residue or damage.The vinyl is a flat vinyl. It is not shiny or cheap looking. It looks like a very nice artistic paint job until you get very close and see the dimension or touch it with your finger.First, I was very impressed with the speed of receipt of the package. Sometimes, when other entities than Amazon ship to you, you wait an extra week...(or sometimes two). I received this product within 5 days of purchase.Second, the item comes rolled up in a very strong shipping tube, and it was flaw free. Just like I like it.More importantly, the quality of the vinyl design was excellent. The tower comes in two pieces. The base part (from the very bottom to the top of the first level) and then the legs and 2nd level and the top are all another separate piece. The words Ooh La La and Paris are along the sides of top piece and can be easily cut away for separate use and location. For my bathroom, I did not use the base portion. It still looks amazing...and fit in my smaller area.The application of the vinyl design is simple if you read the directions. Whatever you do, DO NOT REMOVE THE PAPER FROM THE BACK OF THE DESIGN WHILE YOU ARE AWAY FROM THE WALL. The plastic covering is all sticky, and it will fold against itself. Trust me, I had a few scary minutes until I stopped and followed the instructions.1. All you need is a few pieces of household tape and tape the design where you want it.2. Reach behind the clear plastic and starting from the top of the design, begin to peel the paper backing away and using your fingers, "tack" the sticky clear plastic with the vinyl design against the wall. It will stick on it's own.3. Continue tacking and peeling paper until the design is on the wall.4. Now, using a plastic credit card or ID, start rubbing the design vinyl from the top to the bottom, working out any bubbles or bumps.5. When you have carefully rubbed every inch of the design, carefully peel the plastic covering. It will easily come off and did not remove any paint from my wall.I installed the words on my own easily, but I had help with the larger tower application. It does keep things straighter if you have someone hold the design and paper for you as you go.It is very attractive looking and only tooks minutes. I have received numerous compliments and I would highly recommend this product to anyone looking to add a little pizzaz to their home with little investment.

I am VERY happy with the size of this for the price!I love the whimsical design and so does my almost 9 year old daughter.I would highly recommend having help, but I was able to put most of it up myself, but did need my daughters hands to hold piece for me a couple of times.Take your time and be patient and you will love how sharp it looks.My hints.-I attached mine to the wall with medical tape to avoid tearing the paint, it is not as strong as regular tape but did not tear any paint off at all.-Do not be afraid to cut the tower into smaller pieces, especially since it is so tall, Not counting the base or words I was able to cut the top piece into 3 separate pieces--I started bottom and went up, just make sure you lay it out on the wall first to make sure you don't hit the ceiling.-When you initially tape your base to the wall also mark with pencil your corner angles, that way if you do happen to accidently move it while removing the backing you can line it back up and reattach it.- removing the backing, for the bottom piece you will DEFINATELY need some extra hands. Flip it up (like you would open a chest, think of the tape like a hinge) and have that person hold it firmly against the wall (it will be upside down, but still taped to the wall). they start removing the backing, do not be afraid to cut off parts of the backing you have removed if it becomes too cumbersome and in the way.-When removing the front "backing" after you rub the design onto the wall, again do not be afraid to have a scissors nearby and cut off the excess, or roll it up onto itself. there were few times I had to rerub the design because it stuck to the backing, removing that excess made it much easier to do that.- I said before I cut the top parts of the tower into 3 pieces. when taping it up and before removing the the first backing, I also cut a slit up the bottom of the tower sides it was easier to remove both backings and brush it down, and made it harder to create air bubbles.

This turned out great for my daughter's Paris-themed room -- she loves it, and so do I. It looks very polished and I appreciate that it looks both modern and classic at the same time.It was a pain to put up, though -- both getting it to line up correctly (so we wouldn't end up with the leaning Tower of Pisa), and rolling out the decal so it wouldn't bubble up or bend anywhere. I nearly regretted buying it and said a couple of cuss words trying to get it done, but I'm very pleased with the outcome.Note that this is not like those stickers you just peel and stick on the wall. It's the kind that you have to scratch off with a credit card or a similar tool to get it to stick to the wall. That said, this was the easiest part of the whole thing.

This item arrived in excellent condition. I procrastinated from doing this project on my own as I thought it would be difficult. Was I WRONG. This was very easy to do. I did however cut away the wording and excess paper around the design to make it easier to work with. DO NOT PEEL OFF THE DESIGN BEFORE STICKING TO THE WALL!! As per instructions I used masking tape to hold the top of the pieces in place, this creates a hinge for reaching underneath to peel off the backing. Peel slowly, about an inch at a time and stick. Keep a watchful eye as at times parts of the design wants to peel away from the wax paper lining (the lining is removed only when the backing is peeled off and the design has been smoothed out with a credit card). If this happens just rub that part of the design so it adheres back onto the waxy paper. I put this in my guest bathroom. It does appear its been painted and looks great.
