In your face stencil on AS painted chest of drawers, cannot be ignored!

This is not actually what I had in mind when I started this. Normally when I stencil anything it is very subtle and rather in the background. This is something different for me and strangely enough I do like it. What do you think? Now be honest I can live with some constructive critisism although it's too late to do much about it now!

The paint is a mixture I have used before, 2 chateau grey, 1 scandinavian pink and 4 old white. Clear waxed.





The stencil is from the Stencil Library. This is the before state, not particularly noticeable but you can no longer say that!


Will post further pictures when it has found a place in the house.

Stencilled Doors

I did this stencil some time ago from The Stencil Library and loved it. Brilliant site but so many options it is difficult to decide what to choose. Currently deciding what to stencil on a small wrought iron table I rescued from the barn. It has been sanded and spray painted but still plain at the moment!


The angle is awkward as I have to stand on the stairs to get any sort of picture, once the lounge is finished I will put a picture with the doors open. The base paint is Farrow and Ball French Gray, the stencil is car spray paint in metallic green, gold and the roses are stencilled with a brush using a metallic non-spray paint.
