Everyone loves stickers.Starting from the one-year old child who enjoys putting stickers on the walls to the old adult who likes to label everything in the family.
The name stickers have a long history.People used them throughout the mid 19th and became very popular after late 19th up till today.Of course nowadays there are digitalized versions as well.That’s because people are using them on their devices to attach to their favourite things.But nothing beats the feeling to have a real name sticker on your laptop or bike helmet.There are even name sticker collectors who would collect the whole display book of these cuties.
Now just for your info the founder of famous Avery Labels, Mr Stanton Avery is the actual inventor of the stickers.I think it was around year 1935.From then onward the usage of labels including name stickers skyrocketed.Now one would ask.What is the purpose of stickers? Well they can be used for decoration or when an object requires identification or just for fun and pleasure.There is another use for them.Lot of companies will send you a sticker when you buy their product.They hope that people will put them on their fridges,cars,locker,microwaves skateboards etc to show their “brand loyalty” and this way to spred the word about the brand.What a smart idea! How about to put your dogs name on your locker? Or maybe your girlfriends name on your bike…will attract a lot of jealous looks.
If you look around name stickers are being sold by many companies.The most favourite ones are the ones with a good design and aesthetically pleasing look.It became a fashion between young people.Specially people with good feelings for nice deco and passionate collectors.You have many enthusiastic stamp collector,coin collectors and ques what sticker collectors are everywhere.And there is more. Can you imagine if somebody has a birthday and in the centre of the party room next to the boring usual “Happy birthday” sticker you put a beautiful “Name sticker” of the celebrant?It will look just fantastic.You can even place a nice photo next to it.And what about the gift pack.With fancy name label will look much more beautiful.
The advantage of the sticker is if you don’t like it you can remove it.Try that with the paint…good luck.
And there is also an emotional attachment to the sticker.
What you think.Must be some truth to this.Imagine…you sitting inside of your place and looking at you bike nicely parked in the shade under the tree.The sticker on your bike happened to be a nickname you given to or chosen to…Don’t you feel a emotion to run there and go for a ride? I bet you do. That sticker radiate an energy giving you the very right message.Just go for it…
Hmm… emotions…memories from the things you have done and lived…friends.
Everyone has a name.It is directly connected with you,your life and your history.The sticker is one of the mediums to express yourself.
Now let’s get technical
What types of stickers are around:
Vinyl
Polypropylene
Fluorescent
Satin
Transparent
Polyester
And others
Normally a sticker should last up to average five years then starts to fade.The biggest enemy of the sticker is the ultraviolet light.The first colour to fade is reddish the last bluish.Some inks are more durable than others.It is very hard to find a sticker which one will last forever.The back of the sticker is made of paper and is coated by silicone on one side for easy removal.
If the sticker has a glossy finish will appear to be more vibrant and sharper image.On contrary the matte paper tends to dissipate the ink and looks more washy.If you looking for water proofing the sticker is usually from vinyl or polypropylene printed with waterproof ink.
If you want to stick the sticker permanently use a special glue for best results.Ask for decoupage type of glue.It is very durable.
Is the sticker going to stick?
The surface of the object has to be cleaned can not be dusty or fatty.The best to clean it would be either soupy water,windex for glass or even methylated spirit will do a good job.It is pending on surface.If the surface is textured it is not going to hold too well.Some type of wood has textured surface as well.Do not put stickers on clothes it will not hold for long time.
And now how to remove stickers.
There are many methods.If the sticker is on hard material as glass or porcelain try to pull the edges but really slowly not to tear up the sticker.Many times it will go easier if there is a warm day or you can use a hair dryer to worm up the sticker.Once you have pulled away the bulk of the sticker spray the area with an adhesive remover and clean with microfiber cloth.To remove the left over of the adhesive is very good with orange power cleaning spray.The orange oil will dissolve the adhesive.
Remember, you don’t necessarily have to be an artist to have stickers on your things.If you are a fan of cute things, you will enjoy every moment of looking at them.
And the name stickers are there for every situation.
