If you have purchased labels on their own or chose to apply your own labels, please follow the instructions below. Please note: LIL Home & Events is not liable for any damages that may occur during the application process. 

STEP ONE: Clean the area that you are applying the label to thoroughly with warm, soapy water or an alcohol wipe. It is best not to use any other products as this may affect the adhesive.

If applying labels to a wooden surface, ignore this step.

STEP TWO: Prepare the label by firmly rubbing over the label for a minimum of 20 seconds with a credit card or similar. This will help the vinyl to adhere to the transfer tape and eliminate any air bubbles.

STEP THREE: Slowly and carefully peel the white paper backing from the transfer tape. If any of the letters cling to the backing paper, replace the backing and repeat step two until it is all transferred to the transfer tape.

Please note: This step can be time consuming AND frustrating, however, it is important to follow and the results are always worth it.

STEP FOUR: Once you have peeled the paper backing from the transfer taoe, place the label onto the surface and rub firmly with your fingers.

For best results, wait 24 hours before continuing onto step 5. However, this is at your discretion.

STEP FIVE: Slowly peel away the transfer tape at a slight angle. Be careful when peeling that the label does not peel off too.

Tips if having difficulty:

• If in step 5 the label is coming away with the transfer tape, replace the tape and firmly rub the surface again as you did in step 4.
• If you're still having trouble, using some fine point tweezers or your fingernail to grab a letter while peeling off the transfer tape can help just enough to adhere to the surface.
• Patience is key!
• Some surfaces may require more patience than others
