That looks great Kathy!
I started with using Contact paper (and/or a cheaper brand). My dollar store carried it, but sometimes it was in the stationary area since it could be used for covering books. It worked, but was sometimes fussy to work with.
I now use the Greenstar CLEAR transfer tape from USCutter. I love it! It looks pricey, but the regular rolls are 100 YARDS! If you get the 'sample' rolls, they are 100 feet long and worked out to be 10.5 cents for a foot of the 12" wide. With my last order, I ordered different widths, so now I have 12" wide, 6" wide, 3" wide and 1.5" wide. It stores so much better than the contact paper and allows for ease of cutting the size I need. Also, the Greenstar vinyl is fantastic! I have scraps from a sign place, and consistently the Greenstar out cuts it in detail.
