*** 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?

Susan says
STENCIL ME!
My new DIY love is finding free dressers on Craigslist, painting them and reselling them. They find a new home with happy people and I put a little money in our pockets. It’s a win/win.
I’d love a to try a stencil on one of my dressers then send it on its way to its new home.

Stencil me!
I’d like to try to paint an interesting texture on my dining room wall. I tried once before, about 10 years ago, using one of those textured rollers, and the final result looked like a faux-Tuscan nightmare from 1992. I promise that this time I’ll do it right!

STENCIL ME
I’d love to add window trim instead of the drywall like I did in my old house. I had grand plans to do that in a few weeks while off for thanksgiving week, but lost my job so now that I have the time I don’t want to spend the money.

Jen CN says
STENCIL ME!!!
So we closed on a house on election day and have a million decisions to make- my friend who reads you religiously gave me some good advice to slow down- do one room (or two) at at time and stop freaking out. I would stencil something in the master bed room i think- for that much work i want to look at it a lot!
This summer staying home with my little one I have been sucked into pinterest and am obsessed with painting everything- I spray painted for the first time- and have big plans for lots of old wooden furniture. we also need to fully furnish a three bedroom home and actually move to boot. Thanks for the great inspiration!
Jasmine says

Stencil me! I helped my mother mud and paint the wood paneling that covers half the walls in her house. You’d now never know that it was ever paneled. I’m dying to do it in my house to the one room with wood paneling.

We bought our home in the spring, so I have a million and one DIY projects that I would love to tackle. 1. Paint the walls, all of them, inside and out….not at once. 2. Garage sale furniture, I bought a cute cabinet that I would love to paint once I decide on something. 3. Put up a wall and tear down another 4. The garage/laundry room need something done….the list goes on
