*** This giveaway is now closed. See who won below!***
Sorry for the late notice (travel is messing up my winner picking mojo!), but the random winner of this stencil prize is… Jen (who once “made a chevron painting with instructions I found on Pinterest and it turned out great”). Congrats Jen!
The love of stencils that first blossomed when we did our office walls only grew stronger when we tackled a couple of stenciling projects for our book (on pages 26 & 282). So in the spirit of sharing the love, this week’s prize comes from the maker of the very stencils that we used in all three cases – Royal Design Studio. We’re longtime fans of their modern shapes and patterns, and they’re starting you off with a $100 stencil gift card and throwing in a $100 “Stencil Success Kit” that includes the essentials for executing your stencil project. You’ll get a roller set, 7 brushes, and your choice of five stencil crémes. And to top it all off, how about a $50 paint allowance to the paint store of your choice? That totals a $250 kick in the pants to get your stencil on.
- PRIZE: $100 stencil gift card to Royal Design Studio, plus a “Stencil Success Kit” and a $50 paint allowance to the paint store of your choice
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “STENCIL ME!” and tell us…

STENCIL ME!
I am dying to try another reupholstering project. I reupholstered a couch in college, with fabric from a salvaged IKEA couch slipcover I got from the As Is section for $5! It turned out great, but that was now over 10 years ago, and I would love to see if I could do it again. Maybe not so big this time, probably just a chair!

STENCIL ME!
we havent done too much DIY in our house, but our big project that we are starting on involves a big makeover for our bathroom! we are taking the shower doors down and replacing with a curtain, which means we will probably need to replace some tiles. plus we need to repaint and reinstall a new vanity mirror and a wall-mounted storage cabinet. with two little ones at home the project is moving verrrrry slowly! :)
