High Static Cling Vinyl Project Ideas Created by OMC Designer Whitney
Oh My Crafts High Static Cling Vinyl is a high-grade professional vinyl that sticks without adhesive to smooth, glossy surfaces such as windows, mirrors, and plastics. Assembly is easy and it can be removed and re-applied effortlessly, making it great for seasonal window displays, home décor, decals, signs and many other creative ventures. The High Static Cling Vinyl is flexible and thin enough to cut with standard electronic cutting machines.

Step 1: Mount Vinyl
- Peel off liner from vinyl and mount sticky side facing down to the High Static Cling. If bubbles appear, poke a small hole at an angle with a push pin through the top layer to release the air.
- This sailboat uses 8”x8” squares of Mint Green, Tangerine, Peanut Butter, and Cloud White vinyl mounted to the High Static Cling.
- High Static Cling does not stick to the smooth, non-adhesive side of vinyl so if you are layering vinyl, only mount the base layer of vinyl to the High Static Cling.
Step 2: Cut
- Cut the vinyl mounted on the High Static Cling with electronic cutting machine using the following setting:

Mustache Mirrors
Supplies Used:
Oh My Vinyl : High Static Cling
Oh My Vinyl : Ebony
Silhouette SD Machine and downloadable Mustache Set from Silhouette Studio
Mirrors
Instructions:
1. Apply 8”x8” square of black vinyl to the high static cling.
2. Cut with Silhouette SD Machine.
3. Peel off static cling from liner and apply to mirror.
Applying Static Cling from the Outside
Use this technique for conserving vinyl when applying to mirrors, picture frames, home décor, etc...
Example: Static Cling Paper Dolls
Supplies Used:
Oh My Vinyl : High Static Cling
Oh My Vinyl : Desired Colors
Eclips Machine and Cartridge : Dress Ups
Instructions:
1. Cut out images (clothes, accessories, body) out of vinyl at 6”. To cut faces on the bodies, use the laser-cut preview before cutting to determine the correct location.
2. Layer clothes and accessories that should be permanent (such as the white ruffles on the blue dress). 3. With static cling, cut out the base layers and mount the coordinating vinyl images on top. (For example, I cut the skateboard out of brown vinyl, layered the green vinyl strip on top, cut the skateboard with static cling and transferred the skateboard to the static cling.) By the way, static cling does not stick to the non-adhesive side of vinyl.
4. For the bodies, place them behind a frame (with a plastic instead of glass) or attach the bodies to the clipboard with static cling vinyl.
Happy crafting!
