Trying Out a New Stencil

 

Recently I placed an order with Helen and Rachel over at the Stencil Library for some stencils for upcoming jobs. I had to include a few treats for myself with this order and one of them was a stencil called "Sticky Weed". I first saw this design featured on their blog and knew I had to have it!

It’s a big stencil, one overlay. I have been waiting for just the right design to put over this daybed in my office. There was so much static electricity in my house today that I did not even have to use a spray adhesive to attach the stencil to the wall. I barely needed this tape! I just used it for a little extra security. This stencil was from Helen and Rachel’s "Special Offers" and was discounted because it had a broken bridge, which was easily repaired with tape.

This was very quick and easy. I just used a small foam roller to stencil the design and it was done in no time. I love these instant gratification projects! Now I think I am going to stencil a saying over the fireplace in this room and I’ll be done.

    Lovely work Carol! What an easy way to punch up that wall. Of course it doesn’t hurt that your placement was perfect, allowing the design to flow so nicely 🙂
