Different Uses Of Stenciling
Stenciling on Glass
Have you seen glass stencils already? Perhaps, someone has already given you a gift made of glass with your name on it. Wonder how it's done? Simple. A stencil is used to transfer your name onto the glass. The only trick here, however, is using the proper glass paint so it won't wash off. In a glass vase for example, you can use air dry enamel and coat it with a glaze for added look. Now, if you don't know the right glass paint to use, you can always do your research online or better ask from the paint store which paint doesn't wash off easily on glass.
Stenciling on Fabric
Ah, this one is very common! Maybe what you're wearing now has a stencil design on it. Unlike in glass stencils, in fabric, you can easily grab fabric paints to be used in transferring the design you like. However, if it's rough fabric there that you're using, it can be more challenging. Like on a jean jacket, you have to use a special stencil on it and make sure that the jacket material is laid as flat as possible. But it must not end there. Even if you are really careful in transferring the design, you can still lose some of the finer details. So, the best thing for you to do is to draw the small edges of the stencil by hand for greater impact.
Stenciling on Walls
Wall stenciling is very popular these days. In fact, lots of homes make use of this for their home decorating projects. Whether it's the kid's room, the master's bedroom, the kitchen, or the living room that you want to accentuate, you can always rely on wall stenciling for an enhanced appearance. In your kid's room for example, you can stencil their names above their bed, so they'll feel some kind of ownership in it.
Another example is on your living room's wall. You can always purchase a stencil with popular quotes like 'Faith, Hope, and Love' and simply transfer it using the paint color that you like. Also, if you don't want to use real wallpaper, stenciling can also be used to make it look like a wallpaper. You just have to choose the right color combination to get that desired look for your home.
Stenciling's wide variety of uses can really make a lot of difference not only to your home but also to your fabrics and glass products. Now, unleash that creativity in you and start thinking what project you'll do first. Is it stenciling on glass, fabric, or wall? You decide.
