Safely create raised stencils without the use of toxic products like Bondo or spackling.
Before-Prep for paint. Follow your paints recommendations.
Attach your stencil with painters tape. Mix Coastal Candy into your favorite paint. Consistency of icing.
Apply with a plastic putty knife and carefully remove stencil. Let Dry.
Once Dry you can paint with a contrasting color or the same color. (No Coastal Candy required)
Optional, Paint with a contrasting color. Let Dry
Distress edges if desired or just the raised stencils to reveal some of the base Color.
Enhance with Glaze. I used a mixture of White paint and varnish.
Add shelf brackets and scrap wood to add a shelf.
Optional: add hooks for coats or keys.
One more piece saved from the landfill.

Frequently asked questions
Have a question about this project?
Love it. Yes i want to try it but where did you get the stencil at?
What kind of paint and any certain kind of varnish..?
fun project, but one picture shows the stencil removed after the words are painted, then the next picture shows the entire door painted, but the instructions say apply with a plastic putty knife and carefully remove stencil. There seems to be a step missing?
