You polish up real nice.
For those moments when you catch yourself in the mirror and think, oh hang on… I actually look alright today.
This little speech bubble vinyl decal is a cheeky everyday compliment for your mirror – a bit of positive reinforcement without wandering into aggressively inspirational territory. Stick it somewhere you get ready and let your mirror do the complimenting for you.
Perfect for bathroom mirrors, dressing tables and bedrooms, and a fun gift for friends who deserve reminding that they polish up real nice.
Each decal is cut and weeded by hand by me at Sad Disco Club, then supplied with transfer tape already applied so it's ready to stick.

Where can I stick it?
These decals work best on clean, smooth, non-porous surfaces, including mirrors, glass, tiles, windows, smooth cupboards and cabinets, and other smooth sealed surfaces.
This one was basically born for a bathroom mirror, bedroom mirror, dressing table or getting-ready space – somewhere it'll catch you looking suspiciously good.
Top tip: textured, dusty, damp or porous surfaces can prevent the vinyl from sticking properly, so smooth surfaces are your best bet.
How to apply
Make sure the surface is clean, completely dry and free from grease or dust.
Before removing the backing, firmly rub over the entire design to make sure the vinyl has adhered to the transfer tape. A squeegee works best, but a ruler or credit card works perfectly well too.
Slowly peel away the backing paper, leaving the vinyl attached to the transfer tape.
Position your decal, press it onto the surface and use your squeegee, ruler or credit card to apply firm, even pressure across the whole design. Pay extra attention to the lettering and smaller details.
Slowly peel the transfer tape back on itself rather than pulling it directly away from the surface.
If part of the design hasn't transferred: lay the transfer tape back down, apply firm pressure again and slowly retry. Some of those tiny vinyl details occasionally need a little extra persuasion.
How to remove
Gently lift an edge of the vinyl and slowly peel it back from the surface.
For stubborn vinyl, a little gentle heat from a hairdryer can help soften the adhesive. Any remaining residue can usually be removed with an appropriate surface-safe cleaner.
