I like the gold decals. Did you make those or have them made?

Thanks.
I bought the decals off eBay. Seller eBay handle Igon-sales. I modified the down tube decal to add my logo. So these are vinyl. Which I typically do not use. I prefer the water transfer. But I could not find what I wanted in Water transfer. This decal set was made of high quality vinyl, I was happy with the results.
My wife has a Cricut, and does crafts with vinyl. She was able to make the modifications for me on the decal. The Cricut is a handy machine to have. Make signs like one I use with most of my pics. Make t-shirts and vinyl decals for bikes. Here is a shirt she made with her Cricut.
