WHY STENCIL?
Stencilling is so much cheaper and less messier than applying wallpaper and you get to choose your own colours too!
Our stencils are washable, reusable and can be used with any paint.
They are an effective and inexpensive way to spruce up tired or plain walls, floors or furniture. We provide a wide range of reusable home decor stencils for painting. Whatever your stencil project, large or small and whatever style you prefer, we've got the perfect stencil for the job!

HOW TO STENCIL 

1) Start centrally on your wall ensuring the stencil is level (use a spirit level).

2) Position the stencil in place using some decorators tape on all 4 corners.

3) If only stencilling one colour, use a small dense foam roller to apply the paint.  If stencilling several colours, use several sponge dabbers or stencil brushes, one for each colour. See LESS IS MORE! below for more tips on how to apply the paint.

4) Realign the stencil. There are repeat parts of the pattern around the edges of the stencil. Overlay these repeat markers over previously painted pattern to ensure you get a nice pattern repeat.

5) Repeat step 4 across your space.  Leave the edges of the wall till last.

6) For the edges we find it useful to place some decorator's tape all the way around the edge of the wall, about 5-10mm (3/8") in from the edge. 
Bend the stencil into the edges and secure in place.  You may need to use your fingers to flatten the stencil in places whilst you use a stencil brush or sponge dabber to apply paint. Stencil up to the tape, this will help you create a nice clean straight finished edge.

7) Finally remove the tape.  Voila, your stencilled feature wall is now finished!  

LESS IS MORE!
The biggest mistake most people make when stencilling is using too much paint. This will inevitably lead to paint bleeding underneath the stencil and cause blurry edges. You will be surprised how little paint is actually needed! 
Don't overload paint onto the brush, sponge or roller.  Rub most of the paint off onto a piece of card before applying to the stencil.  Paint or roll in from the edges of the stencil so you don't push paint underneath.
And do practice first on some spare paper or card before attempting your project.
