We are honored to have your 100% positive feedback :) This large wall stencil "Japanese Maple Branch" makes a stunning accent on a wall above a sofa or table, above the bed or pretty much any wall space. Large dramatic maple branch stencil will instantly transform an otherwise plain room. You can stencil just one branch, or overlap the design for tree canopy effect. Try using different colors, or add detail and shading. Experiment with metallic colors or glazes. For the subtle misty background look, try mixing your acrylics with glaze or extender ( sold next to acrylics in craft stores), and then roll entire stencil with this translucent color. Experiment by adding more glaze to your colors to achieve various degrees of translucency for more depth and perspective.

You can stencil over simple latex paint, plaster, faux finish background or even wallpaper if it is in decent condition. This stencil is so easy to use, virtually anyone can do it. Simply tape the stencil to the wall using BLUE painter's tape, then load your dense foam roller (sold in our Etsy store) with the paint of your choice (latex or acrylic). Get rid of excess paint by rolling the foam roller over a folded paper towel. Then, just roll it over the stencil applying medium pressure for an instant fabulous result! Don't press on the roller too hard otherwise you might get some bleed. Transform your room in less than 1 hour! You can stencil with acrylic or latex paint, stencil creams or fabric paint of your choice. Use a foam roller or stencil brush. We find that it is not necessary to use spray adhesive with our stencils. However, if you want very crisp edges or are using high contrasting colors, please use it (Elmer's spray adhesive seems to be the best). I personally prefer just to attach pieces of blue painter's tape to secure the stencil, but for beginners it may be helpful to mist a stencil with spray adhesive just to make sure you get great results. Got textured walls? No problem! If your walls have a light/medium texture, they are quite suitable for stenciling. With textured walls it is better to use a stencil brush. It?s especially important that you put very little paint on your brush, always off-load it on a paper towel, and use rubbing/dabbing motion while stenciling. Using a spray adhesive also helps a lot to prevent any seepage of paint under the stencils. But again, you won?t get any seepage with textured walls if you use very little paint on your brush. If you try using a foam roller, definitely use spray adhesive, (we love Elmer?s) use very little paint and don't press hard on the roller to avoid seepage. When stenciling on fabric, stencil adhesive as a must. First, tape your ironed fabric to the surface so it doesn't move around while you stencil. Use stencil brushes, not roller, and add some textile medium (sold in craft stores) to your acrylic paint. You can also get a special fabric paint, but, frankly, good craft acrylics with a dollop of textile medium work just as well, and costs way less too! :) Let the stenciled image dry completely, 24 hours is best, then heat-set it by ironing the fabric for about 20 seconds (more or less) on a LOW setting through the piece of cloth. Heat-setting will cure the paint and prevent it from being washed off in the washing machine. Always experiment with a sample of your fabric first to ensure good results. I've stenciled on silk, cotton, linen and even sheer fabrics with great results. It's always better if your fabric doesn't have too much texture.
