Those don't look like the same ones spidereddie used.
They are curved and his are straight.
Do you suppose it's just the way you apply them?

Same decals. They come on a transfer paper lined up in that curve. I just cut out and applied each individual letter in a straight line. Not a big deal at all. It was just like applying 3 separate smaller decals instead of one

They SAY they're able to withstand heat. Who knows. :-) worth a try for so cheap
