- Handmade Charlotte Stencils (Plaid)
- Ceramcoat Acrylic Paint (Plaid)
- Stencil Brush (Plaid)
- Sakura Micron Pen
Instructions
-
Select your paint colors and stencil then place the surface to be stenciled on a covered work surface. Place the stencil in the desired location and dip the stencil brush into the paint. Tap off excess paint. When stenciling less paint is better because you can always add layers.
-
You can change brushes in-between paint colors. On this project I did not because I wanted blended colors. Play around and get comfortable with paint and see what you like best.
-
Stencil randomly all over the gift box and allow the paint to dry. Use the same stencil that you used to apply the paint and use an Sakura Micron ink pen to create an outline. None of this has to be perfect because that is the nature of hand-made and part of the boho chic look.
