DIY Vinyl Lettering for Fretboards

Aloha everyone!

I'm playing a bunch of shows coming in the near future for advocacy and benefit stuff so I thought I'd dress up my fretboards a little with some vinyl lettering.

I know there are companies out there that make fake block inlays, vines, etc but I'm specifically looking for lettering. Sorta how a lot of 50s guitar players would inlay their name into the fretboard.

Anyone know a company that would make them? Or am I best going to a craft store and getting 1.5" letters and trimming them with an exacto knife after they're applied?

Thanks!
