So I found a few tutorials on YouTube on making stencils with a wood burning tool. I pretty much had all the supplies needed. So I headed for Pinterest looking for images that I thought would make great stencils. I made copies of all the ones that I loved and went for it. The plastic that I used was from the kind you would use with an an overhead projector, are they still around?
At first I thought the plastic was kinda flimsy, but after a few coats of paint they firmed right up. I still have lots that I must try and make. But at least for now I got it out of my system, lol.
You know I had to test them, the problem was that I could not stop.
Love these!

ReplyDeleteI like the layers of colors.
Will be back Laura
Oh. I must be the only person who can't do her own stencils :(
ReplyDeleteI've seen the youtube videos and it's not as easy as they say... I want to do a couple of signs and I'll end up buying the stencils.
Have Fun, Oh Talented One!
Love,
Teresa
