We have a serious mouse problem in our house, again!
I bought these super cute mouse decals from Martha Stewart crafts a couple of years ago. I love the look of them on the stair risers, but with carpeted stairs I couldn’t do this.
Last Halloween I wanted to put them on our front porch stairs but being made out of only cardboard they would not hold up.
For some reason it took me a year to figure out that I could just trace them onto vinyl and then use the vinyl mice to stick to the stairs. No idea why I didn’t think of such a simple solution sooner.
You can pick up sheets of vinyl at any craft store. They are often in the cricut machine section. I know at A.C. Moore they are $9.99 for 2 large sheets. I only used 3/4 of a sheet for my mice. You can always find a mouse picture online and print it off and use that as your stencil.
I simply traced the mice and cut them out.








Fabulous front porch! The mice look great! Thanks so much for coming out to the party at Clean and Scentsible. I’ll be featuring this tomorrow. Have a great Sunday!
