Decorating my PV

[mrtiedye]

When I first watched Mistress Nomad's tutorial videos and she mentioned she might do a video on decorating your PV, I thought, "Must be a woman thing." But recently I began thinking if I could make this thing look like a tie-dye, well, that would just be awesome. So, what would you recommend to do this with?

I have found some stickers for IPhones and such that look awesome, but from the description, I am not sure if they would be easy to cut and bend. I would like to cover up the gold band in the middle of my PV, which would require cutting around the manual button. I have the eGo that has the cone, so I wouldn't have to decorate each atomizer, since it covers them up.

Being able to remove it easily would be nice, in case I find that I don't really care for it.

Thanks for the links. ecigskinmods.com has a skin you can customize with any image you want for roughly the same price as the regular ones. And shipping is only $1.00. Cool.

Oh gosh, that's the expensive way to do it! lol I just got a pack of Papilio 'Inkjet Removable Waterproof Vinyl' from amazon for about $10, that has 10 fullsized sheets of vinyl. Find your perfect tie dye image online, do whatever you wanna do to it to jazz it up in photoshop, or just print a full sheet of it like you would if you were printing photos. Cut out size for your cig (easiest way is to make a 'pattern' first with tissue paper so you don't waste your printed vinyl. Then just roll over cig. You can also get some spray on fixative (would do this before putting on ecig) or brush on (after application) so its extra durable and snazzy, but honestly i get pretty good life out of em without the vinyl. I'm posting photos right now of a few I've done, so i'll stick em here so you can see. But with the papilio vinyl, you've got enough to do about... say 4 to a page, 40 skins or so, plus lots of extra room on there. I use it to make CUTE little 'cigar band' style labels for bottles I'm trading, etc. Some of these aren't done yet, btw. My box mod will have little tiny rhinestones and some gold touches as well on the design itself, and the button still needs painted. But the cool thing about the vinyl, is you can do whatever you like with it. The stainless ego here just has tribal flames on the cone, and the all pinky one is made from a graphic for Lucky 13 jeans, which is my friend's fave. So you can see, whatever you can find or make a pic of, you can wrap your cig with. All for $10 and some toner ink.


BTW, if anyone has a mad desire for that label or doesn't want to mess w photoshop to create their own, i'd be glad to email it to anyone who wants it. Its just made with a vintage graphic, so no cw infringement.

I saw the ones that are like a shrink-wrap tube you can put on and heat with a blowdryer .... looked pretty cool.
