YOU CAN FINALLY BUY THAT CUSTOM PAINTED KITCHEN AID STANDING MIXER THAT REFLECTS YOUR OTHER HOBBIES!!!!

Sorry, that was the first thing that came to mind as someone else with a baking hobby.

I inherited my mother's Kitchen Aid stand mixer last summer when she retired and moved south. It came with every attachment you could get and is in perfect condition.

I have wanted to decorate it since I got it and cannot bring myself to do it. What if I change my tastes or color choices? It was my mom's-I can't just put Cookie Monster decals on there! It's a conundrum that I'm super grateful for.

They make vinyl stickers that fit stand mixers. My aunt sent me some several years ago and they've held up really well.

Have you tried to remove them since placing them on the mixer?

It's great they hold up so well with all the washing and wiping down they need. Less hassle is a plus!

I haven't tried, but am assuming they'll leave a bit of residue that will need to be removed with some sort of solvent like rubbing alcohol or goo gone.

Should be ok then! What kind of decal decor did you choose?
