*** 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…
- BONUS QUESTION: … one DIY project that you’ve tackled once and are dying to try again. Is it a paint project? Something building related? Are you itching to take another whack at a crafting or sewing project?
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, Nov 14th at 8pm EST or at 10,000 entries (whichever comes first)
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
- PRIZE SHIPS: We always beg every vendor to ship internationally but some companies are not legally able to vend things beyond the US (more on that here). This giveaway is open to The United States.

STENCIL ME!!
I was curious how it would look, so I spraypainted the hardware in one of my bathrooms (same builder-installed hardware that is through the house, including the kitchen). It looked SO great that I can’t wait to go crazy and spray all the kitchen ones as well! Thanks for the ORB inspiration!

STENCIL ME!
I painted and recovered a super cute little sewing chair with a lift off lid, and two little compartments underneath. I painted it a bright cheery sunshine yellow, and covered the seat in a bold black and white striped cotton. It was about a $12 project, and it turned out AMAZING!!! Now I can’t WAIT to tackle some of the cool salvaged pieces just waiting for me in my basement!

Tracie@MiddleClassMod says
Stencil me! I redid the floors in my mom’s house waaay back when I was 19. Now my house needs some floor love. It seems like a way bigger job at 30-something, though, instead of a fun lark.

I’ve always enjoyed building things with wood. Right now we’re in the process of building a bunk bed for 2 of my girls and I really love the process of working with it, cutting it, sanding it, etc. That’s the project I like to do.
