Fab Freebie: Roll On Some Royalty

*** 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.

Royal Design Studio Giveaway

  • 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.
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here on Thursday for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…

Note: We aren’t paid or perked for hosting these giveaways, we just do ‘em to thank you awesome folks for stopping in. See our Giveaway FAQ page for more info. Pics courtesy of Royal Design Studio.

    My mom was the queen of “90’s Kountry Sheek” so I have most definitely stenciled before. I would love to try it again but this time without the Ivy, Roosters, and Dusty Rose (color, not the ‘rassler).

    I am wanting to tackle painting the guest room closet and organizing it. I have already painted the office closet so adding custom shelves to the guest closet would be a new aspect of the project but one that is a good sort of challenge.

    I have recently begun a total house makeover after almost 6 years just “living” in our house. The first room we are tackling is our dining room (which has been painted – trim and all). I have also completed by first set of NO-SEW curatins, which is what brough me to your site!

    Stencil me! I’ve had paint cans and supplies sitting in my master bath for about 4 weeks now. I’m dyiny to paint it but just haven’t found the energy (or time) so that’s what I want to tackle again. Then my plan for the master bedroom is to stencil some flower-ish patterns in random spots, so this stencil set would be amazing to win!! I’m keeping everything crossed.
