I had a wonderful chance to review a custom stencil from Stencils Online, LLC.
They have a selection of clip art to put on a custom stencil and 48 fonts to choose from!
It was very easy to make an account and set up a stencil of my own. The problem was deciding on what to put on there. I thought about a dog and doing something for Isaak's room. He loves dogs! Most of his stuff is Dr. Seuss related, so I ended up going with a quote I liked.
Like I said, it was really easy making a stencil. I could size the fonts and delete things if I changed my mind.
It didn't take long at all for Stencils Online, LLC to custom make, and ship out my custom stencil.
I had some old canvases laying around and a few other techniques I wanted to try out. Isaak helped me with this review. I let him paint as well.
Isaak is a collector, so I wanted to make sure we had some
I had a few bottle caps that I wanted to include in the image. I scanned one in the computer and duplicated it several times, colorized it with a gradient in Photoshop and printed it off on an 11X17 sheet of paper.
Then we took the actual bottle caps, colored the inside of them with markers and poured Elmer's Glue in them.
Once we had a few transfers done, we added our Dr. Seuss quote with the help of Stencils Online, LLC, masking tape and a painted sponge.
The stencil whipped off so easily! All I had to do is run it under the sink. I did clean it right after I used it.
Here's the mostly finished result:
And a close up:
I highly recommend making a stencil on Stencils Online, LLC! It was super fun! It made adding text so easy! They stencil is not flopping, like some I've used. It's actually very durable and reusable. You can make stencils all different sizes on their site!
