Stenciled Loud and Proud.
This cupboard came from a local thrift shop and was being sold very cheaply because it was not in great condition. The wood was very stained with chipped veneers and so I set about completely reinventing it.
I painted the cupboard in a lovely greyish blue colour and then applied a very matt water based varnish to protect the surface before adding the stencil pattern.
The pattern was built up gradually using three different stencils beginning on the outer edges and working inwards.
Using the Lund and Bergen Border stencils, I decided to cover the sides and top as well as the doors, giving the cupboard a lovely modern Scandinavian vibe.
Somebody described the finished piece to me as 'very pretty', and I think that is a really good description!
