We were stumped. During last week's Smallest Coolest Party, Vinh approached us and inquired about companies that make custom wall graphics. He had already created a design, and just needed to find a place that would turn it into a decal.
The very next morning — before we had enough had a chance to start a search on Vinh's behalf — Grace over at Design*Sponge posted about One Up Design. Talk about good timing!
And here are some tips One Up offers for what works and doesn't work:
1. Simple, bold shapes translate well to wall graphics. Complex designs with lots of thin lines or small shapes will be difficult to cut and install; however, we are willing to work with you to adapt any design into a wall graphic.
2. We can vectorize photos and/or silhouettes of people, pets or objects — all we need is a high resolution photo to work from.
3. Size is no limit — we can design graphics to create a scene for your whole wall.
Pricing is based on size and complexity. One Up also stocks some very cool graphics of their own design.

If you want to work some one local-- any reputable sign shop should be able to take your digital files and cut vinyl wall graphics from your designs.
Locally, I've used Sign and Sign Again, and they are great to work with . . .

second the local sign shop.
basically, anybody who's got a plotter/cutter and some half-decent layout skills can do this for you. although i can see the potential advantages of going with someone who's 'specializing' in wall decals.
