Stenciling is one of the fastest, easiest ways to add pretty pattern to almost any surface. But did you know that there is a special paint that is designed JUST for the sole purpose of making stenciling even faster, even easier, and even MORE beautiful?? After stenciling for most of my life (over 3o years now!) I decided that what the stencil world needed was the ultimate stencil paint! I dreamed of beautiful metallic colors, a creamy consistency, excellent coverage and effortless application. I wanted a paint that would make it easy for even beginning stencilers to achieve great results-the first time. And I wanted a paint that even experienced artisans would appreciate. Because, after all, doesn't everyone want to get great results in less time?? Of course, they do! And so, Royal Stencil Creme paints were born! Check out this FREE 9-page instructional booklet on the basics of how to use Royal Stencil Creme paints, and then read on for some pretty stencil painting ideas that you can try for yourself using stencils from Royal Design Studio
Tone-on-Tone Pearlescent Stenciling
Stenciling with Pearl Oyster Stencil Cream looks particularly pretty over light pastel colors, as stenciling with it gives the look of a shimmery damask fabric that changes depending on the light and your point of view.

Two is Better Than One Stenciling
Another 2-toned stencil effect is shown above with the Mughal Trellis Wall Stencil. A good trick to get a nice complimentary colors is to use a variation of the same color as your accent. For this stencil treatment we combined 1 part Aged Nickel Stencil Cream and 1 part Smoked Oyster Stencil Cream to create the lighter color. Then, we used the Aged Nickel color alone for the darker color. Since each color includes the Aged Nickel color the two hues marry well together, and the result is soft, pleasing, and quite stunning. Use smaller stencil brushes will allow you to limit the stencil paint to just the design elements you want.
