Our Background 

The Origins of DecalGirl

So two decades ago, a freshly graduated elementary school teacher (Amanda) and her web developer husband (me) started dabbling with making high-resolution full-color decals. That's where the name came from - she's a girl, and she made decals... get it?

 

Anyway, one day late in the spring 2003, we had the crazy idea to make a pre-cut, full-color decal for our Xbox. No more black plastic - it looked great! She was struggling to find a teaching job, and we figured she could make a little selling these to supplement her part-time job and take the pressure off her.

 

So the basement operation was born, and before you know it we had one full-time employee. Then another. Then another. At one point, DecalGirl took over the whole basement and two other rooms in the house so we opted to move to our first commercial location.

 

That was 20 years ago - we've moved to bigger spaces, employing 27 people at our peak.  A couple of years back, we downsized to get back to our roots - an agile husband and wife team who put customers and quality first. We've shipped millions and millions of orders around the world, and we couldn't do it without you: the people who keep the lights on and food on the tables.

 

We work with artists around the world and have dabbled in licensing with a select few brands like Disney, Mossy Oak, MotoGP, US Army, US Marine Corps, US Navy and more.
