Where I buy vinyl for my projects


If you’ve been around here for a while, you know that I love using vinyl for many of my projects.


pssst… a give away for a set of vinyl to make your own herb crates is coming soon

Since I use so much of it, I had to find it at a better price than what I was getting. I found a company online that specializes in sign making and sign making supplies. I emailed the company and a wonderful lady named Kerry hooked me up with the most amazing pricing, EVER!
The company is  All Graphic Supplies, in Mississauga, Ontario.
They carry a line of vinyl that comes in a matt finish and is perfect for all of my projects.

M,K, ready for the price?… $20.00 for 24 inches wide X 10 yards!!!! (black and white) and $22 for colours and metallics. And they will cut it down to 12” for you to fit your cutter mat!  So, you end up with 20 yards of vinyl at 12” wide.
Back in November I ordered some. I will admit that it didn’t cut quite the same as the vinyl I was using from Avery as it’s a little thicker than what I was used to.  With some adjustments to blade depth and speed, I was able to get it to cut perfectly.
I can pick mine up, but even if you live far away, it may be worth it to figure out the shipping charge (they have an online fedex shipping calculator).
Let Kerry know that Mel sent you :)

  5. That is a great price and that is a TON of vinyl! I still need to break down and get a machine, I just don't trust myself not to cover my house in vinyl lettering. I do tend to get carried away with things. I just glanced over and see you are at exactly 500 followers - congrats!
