Like or Dislike??
I had a buddy from a local sign shop give me some scraps of the camo material he wraps vehicles with.....Took me all of about 3 nanoseconds to start thinking of places a touch of camo might look good......The ceiling fan in my office was the first item I tackled....whatcha think?
My wife gave me "the LOOK" when I told her what I was gonna do with the stuff.....but after I got done she said "OK....I gotta admit, it looks pretty good".

If you have a camouflaged ceiling fan.... You might be redneck!
It does look better than I would have though a camo ceiling fan would! Whatcha gonna do next with it? BB

Nice job! I work in that industry but we don't do wraps. I've got access to the camo vinyl and the carbon fiber vinyl, you can do some really cool stuff with it. It isn't cheap though.

Thats something I was concidering, but it was easier to go this route since the material was free and didn't take me long to install...lol
Although I am working on a paint scheme for my S-10 Blazer that I might share with ya'll to get some opinions.

Well, after adding camo to the ceiling fan blades, light switch and recep covers, I went looking for a fishing or outdoors related wallpaper border, and after surfing the internet for awhile and not finding much that I liked, I decided to create my own.....Whatcha think?

I created the border design in Photoshop, and I'll get my buddy with the sign shop to print it on the vinyl wrap material. So I guess technically its not a wallpaper that has to be applied with a paste or anything so the term might not really apply, but as I surfed the web looking for some sort of border pattern I liked, I noticed many of them were "Peel and stick" so I decided I could do the same using the printer at the sign shop and some vinyl.
You can take a look at my buddies work and ask him about the wrap material....All I know is that he starts with white vinyl and prints the pattern on...His name is Skip and heres his facebook link. http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Mil...84636458222604 And a link to his website in case your not a Facebook user. http://millersignsandgraphix.com/ Give him a shout...He's a great guy to deal with and will treat you right....I can give him a heads up you'll be contacting him if you want? Not like that'll get ya a discount or anything....lol.....Come to think of it he might charge ya double if he thinks your a buddy of mine.
