*** 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.
- 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…

I think my favorite DIY projects are painting. Such a simple process but can make a HUGE difference. I haven’t painted anything in probably 8 months. :( But we should be painting the new nursery this month!! :)

I recently added some IKEA Billy bookshelves into either side of our dining room. I am planning to make them look like built-ins with some trim and moulding, and some stencils on the inside of them would be HOT!

Jessica H says
STENCIL ME! Funnily enough, I’ve been wanting to stencil a couple of walls in our den area (and I’ve been eying some of the lovely Moroccan stencils at Royal Design Studio). When I was a teenager, I stenciled a lot of gold stars on my bedroom walls and a dresser in bedroom. Hopefully this time, it will look a LOT more grown-up. :)

I made a couple of great pillows, and I love them to this day. I can’t wait to move into a new house and sew more to give every room some great, comfy depth!
And I of course really want to stencil some greatness on many walls!

Andrea T says
Stencil Me! I’m such a DIY newbie. The only thing I want to do soon is to paint. But I’m in color paralysis right now and can’t make up my mind. Am starting to get addicted to spray paint though. This is going to be my centerpiece at Christmas: http://pinterest.com/pin/226657793716582286/
Jessica says

More painting! I’d love to try stenciling too and build a headboard sometime soon.

STENCIL ME!!!
The summer after HS I sewed a quilt. I’ve been inching lately to get back into sewing and sew…something, ANYTHING!!! LOL
Jade says
Stencil me! Before we moved to our new house I made a cork board/memo board for our kitchen. It is probably the number one most used thing in our house. We look at it and pin things to it every.single.day. I need to redo it though, because it just isn’t my style anymore.
Stephanie says

I refinished a hutch we bought from a secondhand store. I would LOVE to refinish a dining room set.
Cait says
Stencil me!
My husband gave me a sewing machine for Christmas last year and I’ve had a love/hate relationship with it ever since. I recently sewed my first linen pillowcase and decorated it myself, and I’m dying to get over to the fabric store again for some more! I’ll also be tackling some baby blankets and bibs in the next few weeks…
Jennifer says
STENCIL ME! I painted the entry to our house a hideous shade of red that is so, so wrong. After learning more from you guys about whole house color palettes, I can’t wait to repaint that baby soon–an awesome shade of gray with purple undertones!
niksoap says
STENCIL ME!
I built a spice rack many years ago that didn’t turn out quite right (it was my first building project) and I’ve always wanted to try it again!
Courtney says
Stencil Me!!!
I made all our curtains for our house using your tutorial! And the crib skirt in our baby’s room using the leftover from his curtains. I would love to try some new curtains using a print. I have been thinking about stenciling a wall in our living room for ages and I can’t wait to do it. Winning this would be the kick in the pants I need to start the project!
Shawna says
STENCIL ME!! How did you know this is our next project:). We are planning to stencil the dining room walls and re-cover our chairs. We are thinking about trying a flat finish for base and high gloss of same color for stencil. Hopefully, it will turn out better than our very sad attempt at faux finishes a few years ago :(.
Christine Leakey says
STENCIL ME!!
Haven’t done much DIY but you guys have given me much inspiration to personalize my living space!
Laura says
STENCIL ME!
I’m itching to finish up my new dining room which includes breaking out my sewing machine. We have a love/hate relationship, but I think we can work together to make some awesome curtains!
Katie says
STENCIL ME! I installed a bunch of new light fixtures for our house when we bought it about 10 years ago — now I’m ready to replace a bunch of them with fixtures that are more our style — now, if only I could make up my mind on the new ones… :)

Sarah says
STENCIL ME!
It has been a while since I’ve made anything from Pinterest. I’m hoping to make a wall hanging for a Christmas present, and I’m looking forward to getting started!
