Tried the placemat/stensil idea. Idea was solid; execution problematic. The placemats were so thick and, even though I used a practically dry stensil brush, it either went under the mat or didn't paint the entire surface.
On the up side, I tried using shaving cream on my cermaic stovetop and like magic, presto - chango, clean! Thanks for another great tip. Ilene

Hi Ilene, thanks so much for sharing both experiences. I do know that there is a spray or liquid stencil adhesive that you can use with stencils. It holds them into place temporarily and perhaps that would help seal the stencil in place and stop the bleeding.

Thanks. I thought no the problem is the thickness of the placemat. I’m going to purchase a real stencil, purchase the temp adhesive and give the project a go. Looking forward to my finished project.
happy Valentine’s Day l!

Love this idea. I have some plastic placemats that are cut in a lace pattern. Do you think I could use one as a stencil? I want to stencil on the glass insert of a tible I rescued. Thank you,
