Sunny’s Simple- How To Stencil
Saturday, January 23rd, 2010
Stenciling is as simple as it sounds: blotting paint from a sponge or brush onto a cutout of any shape. The result is a pattern with an elegant hand-painted effect.
Sunny’s Simple ”How To Stencil”
1. Tape the stencil on with blue painter’s tape to keep it in place .
2. Lightly dip your sponge into the cantaloupe glaze and then tap directly on top of the stencil
3. For this particular pattern, I spaced the stencils about 2″ (5cm) apart. For smaller stencils, a good rule of thumb is to space stencils from fingertip to elbow or about 12″ apart.
4. Remove the stencil and repeat until you have finished the entire room.
