Love the blue GS BTW. We were looking for one and never found what we were looking for.
For my first attempt I had ordered a 12" x 96" piece, however a 12" x 84" piece would have been sufficient for the halo. I messed up my first one, so I ordered a 24" x 96" piece just in case I messed up again. But I was able to get it done on the second attempt. So I have some left over. I might wrap something else later. I'm not going to worry about wrapping my solid top because I think I will use my glass top all the time.

Looks awesome, great job! Just out of curiosity, where did you get the vinyl? Everywhere I see has a dimension of 5 ft, so for 84 inches I would need to buy 5’x7’. Thanks.
