*** 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…

Stephanie Randall says
STENCIL ME!
3 or 4 years ago I found a 1920’s dresser for free on Craigs list. I tried my best to paint it and repair it but it needs more work. I would love to find the time to re-do my DIY paint job,].

STENCIL ME!
So, pretty fired up about all the dipping – as in, I MUST start dipping things soon. It’s likely that I’m a little too excited and will begin dipping things I shouldn’t – kids, dog – all fair game!
Kim says
Stencil me.
I’d like to actually finish painting our kitchen cabinets. Can you get my husband to put the sides on the cabinets?

Kate says
Stencil Me! I reupholstered an old wingback, which I love and I need to do again. I love wingback chairs, and we were given another… I would seriously love to try stenciling in a couple of our bathrooms and /or our dining room. It’s been on my to do list for a couple months now…
Hallie says
STENCIL ME!
I made a nice headboard for the master bedroom, and now I’d like to try one with sides (!) for the guest bedroom. We use a twin captain’s bed like a daybed and it would be nice to have a headboard along the length with sides at least partly along the head and foot so we could lean against them. Plus, it would look cool.
I’m in the year- to two-year long phase of thinking about it.
Maybe this winter…
Anna says
STENCIL ME! I’m currently using some DIY stencils on some Christmas presents, and would love to take it to the next level. . .or dimension, yeah – a wall is a dimension. ;)
Urban Wife says
STENCIL ME!
I haven’t really had much success in the DIY department except with painting walls…so I could really use a stencil to fix my track record. :)
Dory says
Stencil me! Planning to do this, just haven’t gotten to it yet.

Kim says

I want to build another piece of furniture from scratch. My dad, my husband and I build an entertainment dresser from solid walnut. I designed it to fit the TV that came with our house (50in plasma). I love it. It is beautiful, sturdy, and fits perfectly. Definitely have to do this again.
Becky says
Stencil me!
Green ugly wallpaper to a beautiful light gray wall waiting for some stencils!

I used a Royal Design Studio stencil on my back patio. It’s lovely, but I’d like to try other stencils and different colors to make it look more like Moroccan tile — until I can afford actual tiles…
Christina says
STENCIL ME!!
Charlotte says
“STENCIL ME!”
Does “the house” count? Our entire house needs a severe hand with DIY, we have just been lacking the funds so far. Hoping we’ll be able to start next summer. I want new floors, knock down some walls, new windows, new kitchen, bathrooms, laundry room… You name it. *dreams on*
Becky says
Stencil Me!
I have only stenciled once, and I loved the effect, so I am excited to try again soon!
Ashley says
STENCIL ME!
I stenciled a roman shade I made a couple of years ago. We just moved and I’ve been thinking for a few weeks about what accent wall (or room?) to stencil in this house. A stencil kit would be amazing!
Keva Ambre says
STENCIL ME!
I’ve chalk-painted a few furniture pieces and now I want to tackle painting the cloth on our antique settee – it currently has an old fashioned flower print and I want to paint on a giant Union Jack flag.
Lori wallace says
STENCIL ME!! Our latest DIY project was pretty much the whole house. and we still aren’t finished. We started out deciding to put in new floors throughout the house and it grew from there. Cause you know if your gonna do the floor you might as well paint all the ceiling, repair walls, tear down paneling etc . . before you put the floors in so you don’t have to worry about messing up those new floors later.
Kristen says
Stencil me!
Wainscoting!
Jennifer says
STENCIL ME!
My latest project was repainting our master bathroom cabinets!! Would love to try stencil on a wall!,!
Lyndsey Neita says
STENCIL ME!
I recently recovered some dining chairs for a friend, and now I am trying to find the perfect chair project of my own. I love changing fabric on things, so I’m sure I’ll be back at it in no time.
Kim says
“STENCIL ME!” I have always wanted to stencil but my walls are not smooth and I am overwhelmed with the thought of having to smooth them – I don’t think stencils would look great on bumpy walls.
