Comments on: Moving To Vallejo Street http://sybarite.us/puertorico/2008/12/06/moving-to-vallejo-street/ The Adventures Of Ron & Evelyn Thu, 20 Oct 2011 14:03:45 -0700 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.3 By: Ron http://sybarite.us/puertorico/2008/12/06/moving-to-vallejo-street/comment-page-1/#comment-4605 Ron Tue, 09 Dec 2008 18:26:16 +0000 http://sybarite.us/puertorico/?p=1567#comment-4605 The key to installing it is following the directions. :-) First, make sure to cut it a little on the small size. ANY overlap on the trim/wood will cause it to pull away. Second, be sure to use plenty of water/soap in a spray bottle. It's easier to install that way. You use the little squeegee they supply to get the water/bubbles out. Third, make sure to apply the smooth side (the side you pull the paper backing from) against the glass. If it doesn't seem to be sticking, you probably have it backwards. (It happened to me.) Finally, it is NOT like some decal for a model car. You can peel it off and reposition a lot. My garage door ones were peeling and shifted about six times with no harm. They are actually very forgiving. Just be careful and use a sharp utility knife and straight edge when cutting.

We had not put it yet, but we liked how it look in the store. Ours was a blue flower. Forgot the name. We also bought some of the Light Effects for the side door a few months ago.

So, we moved that the the garage door and replaced with their "Magnolia" in the bathroom. They have a couple of designs that aren't on their site. It gives a really neat stained glass look, and is cool too see from the outside at night. I'll take a photo and post it.

And you have a PARROT in your yard? Get a photo right away! What kind? I like the LightEffects product — which one did you pick?

Great way to burn some fat, LOL. :-) Oh there are woodpeckers and parrot in the backyard, so when you view the network cam watch out for them. ;-)
