We created this feminine floral stencil pattern based on real orchids that grow in our garden! Our gorgeous Lady's Slipper stencil captures the elegance and sophistication of these rare wildflowers. Ephemeral orchids teach us to appreciate the magic and beauty of the present moment. This classy pattern looks great in bedrooms, baths, dining rooms, and any space that can use some romance and a beautiful feminine touch. Try this stencil design with the multi-color shading technique to bring out the full beauty of the flowers, or simply roll it in one color to reveal elegant floral silhouettes. This stencil pattern comes with an additional FREE Top edge stencil: the upper part of the design cut as a smaller separate stencil. It makes it easy to fill the gaps close to the ceiling line after your main pattern is stenciled.Try this stencil with our new Clip-on Stencil Level, (sold separately) and discover how easy it is to achieve perfectly level results without dealing with all those bulky heavy bubble levels and annoying laser levels.Want to learn how to stencil a damask or allover pattern?

Even beginners get great results!You can stencil with acrylic or latex paint, stencil creams, fabric paint or glaze. Use a foam roller or stencil brush. We find that it is not necessary to use spray adhesive with stencils, however if you want very crisp edges or are using high contrasting colors, please use it (Elmer's spray adhesive seems to be the best). The trick with stenciling is to take care not to over-load your roller or brush with paint and not to press too hard on a roller while stenciling. I personally prefer just to use blue painter's tape to secure the stencil, but for beginners I would recommend using spray adhesive just to make sure you get great results.The stencil is made out of durable 12 mil clear plastic stencil material. This material is strong but flexible, reusable and easy to clean. We love it so much more than standard 8 mil Mylar! It's not brittle, user friendly and just so easy to work with. In our many years of professional stenciling this material has proven to be far superior than any other stencil material we used. Our customers love it too, and we are sure that you'll notice the difference!
