Fern Leaf Stencil Wall
I painted my home office gray last summer, but hadn’t gotten around to decorating most of the walls. After looking at wallpaper and realizing how expensive they could be, I decided to create a wallpaper look by stenciling!

This is what the space looked like prior to the stencil wall. The gray is Metropolitan by Benjamin Moore. It was lovely, but I needed something more going on in here! The room is also north-facing so I had to bring in some warmth.
Paint used: Ella Rose by Magnolia.
I only needed 1 quart of paint to complete this wall.
Approximate sizes and shapes are fine, it's only for planning the design on the wall before using paint.
Go wild! If I had to do it all over again, I would make the leaves uniform rather than randomly angled.
I used a pouncer to apply the green paint. Some people like using rollers, but I decided it's small enough that it wasn't worth it.
It makes a lovely phone wallpaper!
Overall, this was a fun little project to do. It probably won't stay forever, but it's definitely fun enough to stay for a while. The pink is a lovely addition to this north-facing room.
