Create custom home decor with print on demand wall decals & furniture transfers

Selling custom wall art is one of the best ways to get your artwork into people’s homes, but it’s not the only way to get your designs off the page and onto their walls. Custom wall decals and furniture transfers enable you to target a whole new market of home decor buyers — from renters to upcyclers.

Unlike traditional stickers, our peel and stick wall decals and furniture transfers are reusable. Repositionable and residue-free, they’re ideal for anyone who wants to refresh a room or update a piece of furniture without the hassle of paint or wallpaper.

In this guide, we’ll walk you through what makes print on demand decals such a strong addition to your shop, share ideas for how customers can use them and answer some common questions to help you get started.

What are wall decals?

Wall decals are large self-adhesive designs, usually made from vinyl, that can be applied directly to walls or other smooth surfaces. Unlike wallpaper or paint, they don’t require tools, glue or mess — customers simply peel, stick and smooth them into place. This makes them one of the easiest and most affordable ways to change the look of a room, whether that’s adding colour to a nursery, creating a bold feature wall or personalising a rented space without leaving marks behind.

Prodigi custom wall decals feature a polyester base with infinitely repositionable pressure-sensitive adhesive. That means they can be applied, removed and reapplied as often as needed, without leaving residue or damaging the wall. The print quality is crisp and vibrant, so your designs translate beautifully at scale — from playful nursery wall stickers to elegant flower wall decals.

What are furniture transfers?

Furniture transfers — or furniture decals — are decorative vinyl designs made for applying directly onto furniture surfaces like drawers, cabinets and tables. They offer an easy way to upcycle old pieces or add a custom finish to plain ones, without sanding, painting or replacing.

Prodigi custom furniture transfers are made from durable white vinyl with a smooth, matte finish. They’re printed with vibrant colours and sharp details, so your artwork looks just as good on furniture as it does on paper. From delicate floral patterns to bold geometric designs, transfers can completely change the look of a piece in minutes.

Unlike permanent finishes, our print on demand furniture decals are removable and transferable. Customers can apply them smoothly, then peel them off or reposition when it’s time for a new style. That flexibility makes them ideal for renters, DIYers and eco-conscious buyers who prefer refreshing furniture over buying new.

With 15 sizes available, they’re versatile enough to fit everything from bedside tables to larger storage units and pair perfectly with our wall decals for customers wanting a coordinated look.

How to prep your files for printing

Working at a home office

To make sure your decals print exactly as intended, your artwork needs to be set up correctly before you upload it.

Here’s what we recommend:

  • Supply your file as a single-page PDF
  • Set your artwork to 300dpi
  • Include a cut path so we can produce the exact shape of your design

If you haven’t set up cut paths before, don’t worry — our file setup guide explains the process step by step.

Frequently asked questions

How do you apply decals and transfers?

Start by wiping the wall or surface with a clean, damp cloth to remove any dust and dirt. Let it dry completely (at least 2 hours) before applying your decal. Simply peel, stick and smooth it into place.

What surfaces do decals and transfers stick to?

Wall decals

Wall decals work best on smooth, clean, primed walls. They may not stick properly to unprimed, flaking or textured surfaces, or to walls painted with low-VOC or washable paints. Always wipe the wall with a clean, damp cloth and let it dry fully before applying.

Furniture transfers

Furniture transfers are designed for smooth, non-porous surfaces like finished wood, laminate, metal or glass. They may not adhere well to rough or heavily textured surfaces, unfinished/raw wood, or flaking paint or varnish. For best results, clean and dry the surface before applying.

Do decals or transfers damage surfaces or leave residue?

No. Both our custom wall decals and furniture transfers are designed to be applied, removed and reapplied without leaving sticky residue or damaging walls, furniture or other surfaces.

Can decals and transfers be reused?

Yes. Both products are reusable. Customers can peel them off and reapply them multiple times, making it easy to refresh a space or update a piece of furniture whenever they like.

What sizes are available?

Wall decals are available in 24 sizes — ideal for creating everything from small decorative accents to full feature walls. Furniture transfers come in 15 sizes and are suited to both bedside tables and larger storage units.

Are decals and transfers suitable for rented accommodation?

Yes. Because they leave no marks behind, both wall decals and furniture transfers are perfect for renters who want to personalise their space without risking their deposit.

Do I need to keep stock to sell decals or transfers?

No. Like all Prodigi products, wall decals and furniture transfers are printed on demand. That means we print, pack and ship every order for you, as and when you need it — no inventory, no minimum orders and no upfront costs.
