Stencil clean or sponge

Paint

Use a stencil stamp or a traditional stencil.

Stencil stamp

Step 1: apply paint to stamp with a clean or sponge. Dab it lightly on a paper towel to remove excess paint. It should be covered with paint, but not dripping.

Step 2: apply to wall, holding firmly in place for a couple of seconds to allow paint to transfer to wall.

Punch-out stencil

Step 1: Tape stencil in place on the wall to make sure it doesn’t move. Dip stencil clean in paint. Dab the clean on a paper towel to remove excess paint.

Step 2: clean paint over cut-out areas of stencil. carefully lift stencil to avoid smudges.

Step 3: wipe stencil’s edges before moving to the next spot.

Tips: practice stencilling on some white paper to get a feel for how much paint you need. stencil images won’t all look exactly the same: some will have more paint and appear darker while others may be missing a corner or not have enough paint. Not to worry, this adds to the flea-market feel.
