*** 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 sewed the pillow covers for our living room couch but I am feeling the itch to re-do them. As for this awesome prize, I will paint and stencil our dining room (which needs a major updating!)

Diane says
STENCIL ME!
My family and I have a house built in the 80’s that is full of golden oak wood. I re-did a room by scraping the popcorn ceiling, painting the trim a nice, crisp white and painting the walls a soft gray. Now I want to do the same thing in every room. A stencil would be great for a feature wall in the master bedroom.

STENCIL ME! I’ve refinished some furniture and was dying to do it again. Now I’m elbow-deep restaining a dining room table and it is not going well . . . not sure if its the weather or operator error, but my stain is staying sticky, even though its soaking in. Oh well, I’ll just chalk it up to a learning experience!

STENCIL ME!
One DIY project I’ve tackled that I am dying to try again (the right way the first time!) is a stenciled wall. I did it to my guest room and started off with the wrong roller and not enough patience so one corner of the wall looks horrendous and I don’t know how to fix it besides re-do it, but I already cut the stencil to finish off the edges :(
