Being a mom of two keeps me super busy and there’s always a pile of laundry waiting to be done. That room became a catch all. It was dull and didn’t inspire me to get the chore done. My goal was to add a pop of color and make it more inviting. Wallpaper prices were a no go & not to mention the patience required to get it done right. Enter @stencil1 to the rescue! It allowed me to work at my own pace, within my budget and pressure free. I enjoyed working with this stencil so much. I took the laundry room from drab to fab! Now I don’t avoid laundry at all.
Pros: Simple, beginner friendly supplies can de used
Cons: You’re gonna fall in love and start thinking of other projects that can be Stencil1’ed.
Tools I used:
Scissors, to prep the stencil
Paint brush, a 2” worked perfect for this project
Two small cans of paint, color of choice
Painters tape to secure the stencil to the wall
2-in-1 Monstera Tropical Leaf Wall Stencil
Step 1:
Detach your Stencil1 carefully with a scissors.
Step 2:
Choose your canvas. The plan here, was to create an accent wall with just the right amount of excitement in this small space. I taped the stencil to the wall using painters tape, to ensure it was flat on the surface.
Step 3:
Chose my paint colors and with a 2” brush I went to town. I freely continued to attach the stencil along the wall. The process was way too easy. Repeated this step until the wall was entirely full.
The final step: stand back and relish in the moment.
Thank you,
Margie Endres
