what i did this weekend

yeah, I'm crazy.
over 300 stencils. done!

first one! this was way before I figured out to use painters tape on the corners so I didn't have to keep respraying the sucker with spray adhesive. Eventually, I got in the groove and used a dry roller to smooth the stencil, and a straight edge to wedge it into corners.

second one...of many.

finishing the first wall.

the little foam stencil brushes were perfect, though the edges of the stencils cut them up pretty nicely. I went through 4 total.
a triptych, entitled, "Why Jen Hates Corners, Especially Corners With Molding"



et voila!

complete with cabinet bolted to the wall!

That is so cool.
I'm amazed.
Simply amazing! I'm extremely impressed and in awe.
I did a 5 color stencil on my bedroom walls a few months back. Its amazing how much work it is. I had to rest every half an hour or so or my arms would fall asleep and I would get dizzy. Your's looks good!
Looks beautiful! Nice job!
thanks everyone!
my shoulder and neck are still sore from the contortions, so I cannot imagine doing a multi-color stencil!
Wow...I'm scheduling a massage for myself just LOOKING at those photos! But it looks great!
wow...you did an amazing job, especially the corners. Looks great!
