Choosing Vinyl Lettering Sizes

What size of vinyl lettering do I need?

The measurements shown on our website are for the actual piece of vinyl you will receive. Not the surface you are applying to.

  1. 1. You will need to first measure the surface you will be placing your vinyl onto.
  2. 2. Select vinyl that will measure at least 1/2 inch smaller than your surface.

For example…

If you plan on placing the vinyl on a glass block that measures 8 inches x 8 inches, you DO NOT want to order an 8 inch x 8 inch piece of vinyl. It will not fit.

Instead, you want to order vinyl that is smaller in size (we recommend 6 inches x 6 inches for glass blocks).
