you will need
Paint- any thick paint will do, just use the correct paint for the surface you are working on. Acrylics and emulsions work well for walls.
Stencil Brush, dense foam roller or sponge - use a flat ended stencil brush for best results.
Low tack stencil tape or repositionable spray adhesive - for holding the stencil in place whilst you paint it.
A paper plate and some kitchen towel or scraps of paper for decanting paint and prepping the brush.
how to stencil
1 - Hold into position with small pieces of tape around the edge of the stencil to hold it in place whilst you paint. You could just hold the stencil with your free hand but it's important not to let the stencil move at all.
2 - Pour a little bit of paint onto a paper plate. You'll be surprised at how little paint you're going to need! Load the very end of the brush with some paint - then...
..remove most of the paint.
Simply blot and swirl the brush onto another part of the plate or some kitchen towel to distribute the paint evenly on the bristles and remove excess paint from the brush. You're aiming for a virtually dry brush here.
3 - Begin stenciling
Apply the brush to the stencil in a dabbing or swirling motion. A bit like a Woodpecker! Keep the brush upright and at 90 degrees to the stencil at all times.
Pay particular attention to the edges of each hole in the stencil. There are lots of cool shading techniques which we'll cover another day but to start with just concentrate on filling in all the cut parts of the stencil. Only reload the stencil brush when no more paint is available.
4- If you fancy adding another colour, go for it. To keep colours separate use another stencil brush and wait for the first colour to dry, but, if it's a blended look you're going for you could try adding a second colour whilst the first paint colour is still tacky and blending by overlapping with the second.
5- Once you've finished painting the stencil it's time for the big reveal! Just peel the stencil away and voila, you're an artist!!
Top Tip - Remove the stencil before paint dries, especially if the paint is quite thick. There is a danger of peeling paint from your stencilled surface if you allow a film of paint to dry across the stencil!

Let customers speak for us
from 105 reviewsThe window film was easy to apply and looks incredible. I love it so much, I ordered another one.
This is exactly what I wanted for my kitchen basement window and the decal was easy to apply. I love how the light is still let in through my window and it makes you feel that the garden is inside. I love the colours and flowers they had chosen on the decal. Most of all I love how easy it was from ordering to application! Thank you Nutmeg Studio!
A beautiful way to add some privacy to our downstairs loo window. Such a pretty design :) easy to apply once we’d read the tips
Customer care is fantastic so helpful.
Product is great quality and great range of colours. Thank you
I love seeing these beautiful wildflowers on my window. Nicely obscures an untidy part of the garden!
Gorgeous door sticker. Great choice of colours. Really easy to put up with very clear instructions. Will definitely buy from this company again.
Always a great experience ordering our trade show vinyls from Nutmeg :)
Ordered a set of gold dots and the quality is fantastic. They stuck easily on the wall and came off easily when we had to adjust a few.
My daughter's bedroom looks beautiful now 😍
Easy to order and use.
A nice and simple way to wish people who come to our door a happy new year, we also purchased the Merry Christmas for the front door and they work brilliantly, we have done this for a number of years now, simple to apply.
Delivered in super-quick time, correspondence was really good, and we all love the sticker.
Great colour, vibrant as you would expect from an Elf and bring joy on seeing them, especially for the grandchildren
I love my ‘Merry Christmas’ door sticker. It always looks enchanting next to the Christmas wreath. Our door was repainted this year and so we realise it is more adhesive to a flat surface but it is still on and secure though.
