*** 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!
Recently tried my had at re-upholstery. I started small with a bench that had minimal amounts of piping and curves. It sure isn’t easy and takes lots of patience. I now have four chairs waiting on me that have lots of piping and tufting. I’m just trying to work up the mental energy to get started. It may be awhile. :)

Lindsey says
STENCIL ME! I did a 2-tone black and white abstract painting of feet for a design class back in college. I already bought frames (a while ago) to make another two similar paintings, so that will be a good project for the new house! (Don’t worry, you can’t tell they’re feet unless I tell you!)

STENCIL ME!
I tried hand painting wallpaper in my 60’s yellow bathroom with a cardboard stencil I found online, and I love how it came out. I would love to try some more hand painted stenciling on furniture or another room….I am thinking some free “Royal” stencils would be a great way to liven up my boring master bedroom!
Sarah says
Stencil Me!
We the first room we made over in our new house was our dressing room (the former owners set it up as a horrible peach colored office – yikes!). It was such a transformation we have started (slowly) on the rest of the rooms. We are currently removing the old knotty pine boards from our living room and hope to have another amazing transformation.
Laura says
STENCIL ME! I love the chalkboard wall we recently painted and I can’t wait to complete another project with chalkboard paint!
Sarah says
STENCIL ME! In a previous apartment I created a temporary drum shade cover for a tacky light fixture. I’m still renting but in a new place and I desperately need to tackle this again. Unfortunately the fixture in question is very large! Should be an interesting project…
