First step I chose to go with is the pinstripe along the bottom.  pretty much all the other stickers go from this one so if you get this one fairly straight all the others will look fine.

the sticker material is fairly forgiving so as you work around if the line isn't to your liking just lift it up and place it down again.  I like to press one end down and pull the line around with a little tension.  this keeps the line straight.

the stickers I made have this stripe as 2 parts so start the stripe away from the center mark you made so that the overlap doesn't occur right in the front of the lamp.
