FAQ
What are your wall decals made from?
Our wall decals and wallpaper are made from high-quality, removable fabric material called PhotoTex®, designed to be safe for your walls and your home. It is non-toxic and suitable for children’s spaces. We found that after 15 years of experience, this material cannot be beaten in quality.
Will the decals damage my walls?
No — our decals are designed to be removable and reusable without damaging walls when applied and removed correctly. They won’t leave sticky residue behind either.No — our decals are designed to be removable and reusable without damaging walls when applied and removed correctly.

What surfaces do they work on?
Our decals will adhere to most clean, flat surfaces such as painted gyprock walls, glass, wardrobes and more. We do not recommend using our decals on textured surfaces such as concrete, render, painted brickwork or any other porous material.
Can I reuse or reposition them?
Yes — our decals are not only totally removable, but easily reusable over and over again. They will however lose their adhesion if the sticky side comes into contact with dirt, dust or moisture.
Are your decals safe for babies?
Yes — all our products are made with safety in mind using non-toxic materials, making them suitable for nurseries, bedrooms and play areas. They do not contain any PVC.
Why are your wall decals more expensive than others I’ve seen online?
As the old saying goes, you get what you pay for!
At Ginger Monkey, we use premium PhotoTex® fabric, which is a high-quality, removable material designed specifically for walls. Many lower-priced alternatives use thin vinyl or plastic-based materials that can look shiny, peel over time or leave residue behind. Our decals have a thick, fabric feel which makes them extremely easy to work with.
Our decals are designed to:
- be applied easily
- will not tear, rip or wrinkle
- look like beautiful wall art (not cheap stickers)
- no damage to your walls
- last for years and and grow with your child
- can be moved from home to home
- Non-toxic and green
While cheaper options may seem similar at first, the difference in quality, finish and performance becomes very noticeable once applied.
Can I apply decals to freshly painted walls?
No - We recommend waiting at least 2–3 weeks after painting before applying decals to ensure proper adhesion and avoid damage.
Can I take my decals when I move house?
Yes - Try to keep your backing liner that they decals come on. You can however use baking paper / greaseproof paper instead of the original backing liner if you no longer have it. Just gently peel each decal from the wall - It may be best to very slightly warm the decal first with a hairdryer if it’s a cold day. Next, apply the decal sticky side down, to the lining paper. Then simply roll each decal and store or transport in a postage tube ready for their new home.
