Ktichen Aid Mixer Decals

Kitchen Aid Mixer Makeover

Written on February 18, 2013 by Laura Bray in Create

I'm a big fan of the Pioneer Woman. My daughter and I record all her shows and watch them together after school. One day, while I was watching and looking at her cool, personalized Kitchen Aid mixer (you can see a photo here), I had a burst of inspiration. Here's how the conversation went in my head:

Me: "Man, I want a cool mixer like that."

Rational Me: "I don't think Kitchen Aid is going to be coming along and asking to license your personal designs for their mixers anytime soon."

Me: "Whatever. Are there anymore cookies?"

Seriously though, it got the wheels turning and last week I created my very own designer mixer. I just bought some repositionable clear window decal paper from my local office supply store and printed out one of my original designs onto the paper. Then I cut up the design and laid it out on my mixer and Ta-Da! I am now rocking my very own Laura Bray Designs mixer. It makes me smile whenever I look at it and, because I used repositionable decal paper, I'm thinking I'll be able to remove the design when I wipe it down or want to change out the design.

Susanne,

The designs are my own. I simply scanned some of my doodles into my computer and printed them on the decal paper. If you don’t feel confident creating your designs, you could download some copyright-free clip art and print that out.
