Song Lyric Home Decor

May it’s your wedding song, lyrics that speak to you, or a tribute to your favorite singer, let’s show you how to surround yourself with words that make you feel warm and cozy.
Head to Mixbook’s Home Decor.
Pick your desired medium: canvas, metal, acrylic, or poster. For text-based art, we’d suggest acrylic, poster print, or canvas.
Begin with removing the photo boxes. Google your chosen lyrics and copy/past them into a text box. Now you can play around with your design. Add a background, choose a stylish font, and create something in your style.
We added a simple grey square sticker behind our lyrics for a little contrast, chose the “City Streetwear” font, justified the text to the left, and made bold the last line of the lyrics as a final touch. This looks great as a framed poster print!
How to Print Quotes for Home Decor

We complimented this Walt Disney quote with the Viva Beautiful font in the color gold. Browse through our sticker options to find complimentary add-ons like this gold and pink embellishment we chose to jazz-up the design. We also liked this simple background that didn’t overpower the quote.
Using only Stickers and Backgrounds to Make Home Decor
We have so many beautiful stickers and backgrounds that you can play with to create the perfect wall art. You can start by browsing specific types and styles if you’d like to hone in on your search.
We searched stickers by Type, and then Phrases to find this motivational “Never lose your sense of wonder” quote. We added it to a geometrical background for a gorgeous acrylic block that could make great desk decor.
Did you know you could change the color of stickers? Yup! It’s a great way to expand your design and customize all our stickers to fit your style. Take a look at this fun travel print we put together using only TWO stickers. We used the same luggage sticker a couple times and changed its color and size to create a fun dynamic for the text sticker to lay across.
