These stencils are a very cost effective alternative to designer wallpaper and you can say you painted it yourself! Fun, Easy and Inexpensive! Let’s get stenciling!
We are using Behr’s “Script Ink” as our darkest palm frond leaf tone. For your next lightest tone, pour both “Script Ink” and Navajo White by Benjamin Moore into a soup container. Mix thoroughly and create your medium tone. For your lightest tone, you will repeat the same process but with more white paint!
Pour some paint onto a tray and evenly load your dense foam roller with paint. You don’t need a lot of paint on your roller so if you feel there is too much, offload excess paint onto a paper towel!
Apply spray adhesive to the back of your stencil to reduce your chances of bleed. Randomly place your three palm fronds stencils on your wall then roll in your darkest color first! Make sure not to fill up the entire wall with dark palm fronds leaves. Leave some wall color showing! When you’re satisfied with the amount of dark leaves on your wall, move on to the next lightest color!
For this specific accent wall we focus on clumping the palm fronds leaves together and facing them upright (with the exception of a few random ones!)
We cannot get enough of how easy this accent wall was to create! These tropical stencils get the job done in just a few short hours! Stay on trend and also within your budget! What do you think?
