Decorating with Stencils

A Wisteria covered room to dream in

Kellie Iman  doesn't ever seem to do anything in a "little" way. Just step in to her garden fantasy, dripping with colorful wisteria and creativity!

Kelly took our Wisteria Tree design and trailed it all over the room, including the ceiling! She added a life-like brick wall with birdhouses, lattice work, planters and kitties to create a space that any garden lover would LOVE to have as an office. What a great room for a little child to grow up in!

Notice how all of the colors coordinate and pay special attention to her use of shading.

Thanks Kellie, for sharing your personality and ideas with us!

Shading stencil designs needn't be confusing. Pick a place you would like your light source (like the sun) to be coming from. Now, shade the opposite side of the element you are stenciling.

For instance, if the sun is coming from the top, shade the bottoms of the openings. This doesn't apply in every single situation (for instance, if you're stenciling a rose, the inside of the petals would be shaded as well) but in "general" it's a good rule of thumb.
