Here at Dizzy Ducks we are a huge fan of the Boho design trend and the wall arch colour block technique! Those warm earthly tones teamed with rounded geometrical simple shapes look so good alongside the green houseplants and the 1970's vibe of rattan furniture. What is there not to love?! Creating those arch patterns can be easy peasy using our Boho Arch Wall Stencil. Why not team up with some chalky wash paints to create a warm textured look.

Decide how high you want your arch to be then position your stencil on the wall using masking tape to keep it in place. Use a spirit level to make sure it is straight. 2. Apply paint using a small dense sponge roller making sure not to overload with paint and cause bleed. The larger the stencil the floppier it can be, so you may need to hold the stencil down with your fingers as you work to make sure it stays flat on the wall as you apply the paint. 3. For the sides of the arch, apply painter's masking tape vertically down each side. You can then paint the inside of the tape to create the whole arch shape. Basic stencil instructions are included with each purchase. But please do Get In Touch if you have any questions at all. LESS IS MORE!The number one mistake most people make when stencilling for the first time is using way too much paint, this leads to bleeding under the stencil, and no one wants fuzzy lines! It’s surprising how little paint you actually need. Apply a small amount of paint to your roller, and then roll off any excess paint on a scrap bit of paper/card. Your sponge needs to be touch dry, so paint only comes through when you apply pressure. The same applies when using a stencil brush. Practice first on some spare paper or card before attempting your project.
