Anyone know a reputable source for indoor vinyl in Canada? My baby is due in 7 weeks & I really want to use my zoobaloo cart to make 12" vinyl letters & animals for the baby's room.
thanks in advance!
Karen

Oh My Crafts has vinyl on sale for $1-2 a sheet and the shipping isn't too outrageous. They usually have a discount code to use also. I ordered 16 sheets for $24.

I ordered 4 of this ohmycrafts vinyl deal & hoping for the best. S&H fast was $110!!!  So I opted for USPS $60, which is steep, but it works out to $2 a sheet on the total order so I can live with that. I can't believe there is no where in Canada that offers deals on vinyl. I googled & got floor vinyl and old record player vinyl disks but not crafting vinyl, weird. So it should arrive in about 3 weeks I guess, thanks everyone!

I know nothing about vinyl or where to purchase it or prices or anything...but I did see this on facebook and thought I'd share it in case its a good place/product. They ship to Canada but are not IN Canada. http://shop.square1masterpiece.com/

I found an online source at scrapbooking.ca. They have ProvoCraft Vinyl for $11.15, 2, 12 X 24" sheets. I've never used vinyl and really don't know if this is a good deal or not......!

The vinyl I ordered from Oh-my-crafts arrived on Thursday Nov 1, but not the transfer tape that was part of the deal. I emailed them to let them know I haven't received it. I don't understand how the same order in 2 packages can't arrive on the same day, mysteries of the delivery world I guess. The transfer tape was a bonus part of the order so I guess if it never shows up, it won't. The 12x24" vinyl arrived flat packed USPS & still works out after shipping to $2/sheet. Trying to look at the positive side... Not I've got to get busy and get cutting it

I use contact paper, lucky to have a fabric store that sells solid colors for $1.49 A YARD.
I made a rabbit decal for my car, have a pet rabbit now, and it is holding up really really well. have used it for a name plate for his cage, etc.
As far as canada check with places that do custom signs, they use vinyl and also places that do car detailing=racing stripes, etc. they use vinyl as well.

Good one Canada Post, ha ha ha ha. I was home all day and they sneaked the slip into my mailbox without ringing the doorbell that I can pick up my package tomorrow after 1130am. Man, every third package they do this. The slip time was noted 845am . I'm sure its for the transfer tape so I will add that to my jobs list tomorrow. edited to add, yup, it was the transfer tape.

That happens to me a lot, if I place an order and it's in 2 diff. packages, NEVER do they both arrive at the same time, always 1-2 days apart. I think it's silly, but I guess they must get separated in the sort room at some point. Just went and checked out your blog to see if you had gotten the vinyl up on your son's wall. It looks great! Super idea! I'd love to put some up on my daughter's wall, but every time I have, she just peels it right off.  She's 3, but a real trouble maker.
