Vinyl Types & Textures
There are two major types of vinyl. Adhesive vinyl and heat transfer vinyl. Both types come in a variety of brands, thickness, colors, sizes and textures. The options are truly endless when it comes to vinyl.
Which Vinyl Should I Choose?
If your surface is hard and smooth (things like walls, mugs, bottles, picture frames, mirrors, boxes, etc.), go with adhesive vinyl. If your surface is soft and can withstand heat (clothing, shoes, books, tote bags, etc.), then heat transfer vinyl will work best!
Vinyl Design Examples
You can really get creative with your design when it comes to vinyl. There are so many colors and textures to choose from. Here are some vinyl print examples to get that creativity flowing.
Remember!
Vinyl uses a process called “weeding” to cut your design. So simple text and graphics work best.
