Simply get in touch if you require a different size.
The size information above refers to the actual size of the cut stencil design. The design will always be cut from a slightly larger sheet to allow for a border, see our standard sheet sizes illustration to get a general idea of sheet sizes.
Stencils form an easy to use, cost effective and creative solution for decorating walls and all other surfaces in the home. More versatile than stickers as you'll be able to use your stencils again and again, as many times as you need, and on any surface too including fabric. More cost effective than wallpaper as one stencil can be used to decorate a whole room! Stencils can be used to create coordinating fabrics for curtains, blinds, bedding and cushions as well as decorating furniture and floors. Paint your stencils any colour you like, or change your mind, paint over them and try a different colour! Stencils are perfect for all your upcycling and rejuvenating projects. Stencils will suit your personal style as the colours you choose, type of paint, application technique as well as the stencil design and how you repeat it, all add up to a completely personalised finish, unique to you.
As well as a stencil you'll need some paint, a brush or roller to apply the paint and some tape or spray to hold the stencil in place whilst you paint it.
Paint - all types of paint can be used for stencilling, choose a thick paint like acrylic paint, artists acrylics, chalk paint or thick emulsion paint work well on walls. Of course you could also use specialist paints and finishes like wood stains and fabric paint too, it just depends on what is most suitable for your project.
Brushes & rollers - Stencil brushes have a flat end to allow for close contact with the surface you are stencilling and therefore less paint bleed beneath the stencil. Rollers, the dense foam kind used for gloss painting, are brilliant for larger areas and save a lot of time (and patience!). Pieces of sponge can be used also, again, it really depends on stencil size and detail, the area to be stencilled and the amount of time you have to complete the job.
Stencil tape & spraymount/spray adhesive - Low tack tape is best, or you can use normal masking tape which has been blotted on clothes to remove some of the tack. Spraymount is widely available from art shops, DIY stores and stationers, they do vary so always follow manufacturers instructions. The most important thing is to make sure that the stencil stays put whilst you paint it, a second pair of hands works too!
Practice with some scrap paper first to get an idea of how much paint to use, less is most definitely more. For symmetrical stencilling start in the middle and work outwards in all directions. For larger areas you may have to mark a level line across the wall with removable chalk to ensure a straight line to work to. You'll find etched marks on some of our repeating pattern stencils which helps with pattern matching. Sometimes it may help to have a second or third copy of the stencil so you can get a friend to help or for keeping colours separate, you'll need to have one brush or roller for each colour you use.
