I prefer matte vinyl when I can use it so that's what I went with. You can really use indoor or outdoor vinyl. If not manually select all like color designs > right click > group. If you have Designer Edition, you can easily do this with the Select by Color tool. This gives you the chance to make adjustments before you cut and realized 'oh wait there are too many blue elements together.'Īfter you assign each element a color, group the like-color elements together. I think the best way to do this is the actually fill in the design elements in Silhouette Studio using the Fill Color and Line Color tools so you can 'see' what the finished design will look like. Once you have the design all ready you can do two things: delete the outer square and decide if you're going to cut on one or more colors of vinyl.

That sort of offsets the LED lights' price.
I used pre-tied bows from Lowe's that were $1.99 each. Very nice effect.įor indoor ones, I used LED mini lights that I got from a friend who does that for a living, so it gave me a price break. I sprayed both sides with frosted spray from Lowe's, by Rustoleum, a couple of coats and then set them at intervals down the driveway. I tied the bows around the sides so the lights only show through the front and back. For outside light boxes, which I use as luminarias, set upright, I used regular mini sets of 50 that I bought for $.99. I then tried different alternatives with the lights.
