SHYJSHYJ6 PACK 14'' Animal Print Wall Stencils for Painting Large Pattern on Wall, Concrete for Patio, Reusable Decorative Template for Animal Texture Painting Furniture Wall Décor

I bought two packs of these to work on an accent wall-they’re high quality stencils! Easy to use and move around-entire wall took about five hours. Very happy with the outcome and would highly recommend!

This took about 3 ish hours. I spent probably that same or more amount of time trying to decide between stencils, stickers or wallpaper. Price is why I chose stencils. This stencil and apple barrel matte black paint is what we used. This stencil has guides and lines up easily. I used two pieces of box tape to hold to wall. I'm glad we went with this. Sticker decals would have cost more and up close you can tell they are stickers. To apply paint I used a small chalk paint brush and dabbed.

I love these stencils! They arrived in a very solid cardboard envelope that has a snap to secure them and keeps them from bending. I saw a pitcher at another store that I almost bought, then I remembered I had a pitcher that I was going to donate, so I used one of the stencils to paint the pitcher and it looks better than the one I wanted to purchase. These stencils are sturdy, reusable, and easy to clean with a little soapy water.

I was expecting these to be low quality as the price is quite low but they are heavy durable plastic, cleanly cut and even arrive in a heavy storage envelope to keep their shape. I was very pleasantly surprised and I’ll be turning to this brand often now.

Good

First off, these came nicely packaged in a sturdy envelope to keep them from being bent, which was a great bonus.I'm using one of these to do a small accent wall in a bathroom. I've done stencils before (on a painted tile floor), so this is my first time using a stencil on a wall. It's a bit of a process and I'm pacing myself because I'm generally not a patient person, and not being patient with stencils just makes for more work, in my opinion. You do want to wipe down the stencil after use or at least let it dry so that no small spots of wet paint will transfer the next time you lay the stencil down. I am using a stencil brush with rigid bristles which is working fine, but my previous experience with a stencil and using a sponge brush seemed better. A couple of flaws for this particular pattern are:- The pattern goes way too close to the edge. I put strips of painters tape at the edge to avoid accidentally going off the side of the stencil. I prefer not to use so much tape to hold the stencil up, but this is the most fool-proof method.- If you look at the top of the pattern (along the top of the wall in my photo), you will see that it really should have half of a vertical line between the two angled ones. In the end, I will probably ignore it because it'll be waaaay too much work to get that last line in, but if this was wallpaper (which I wanted to emulate), you would see a segment of that line there.I haven't used the other stencils, and I may not have the patience to try them in other places after this process. But, overall, I'm happy with how it looks. I did have to go back and sharpen some lines that bled some, but not too much.

I love to paint. LOVE to paint. I don’t care if it’s walls, doors, or a canvas, if it involves paint, I’m there for it!Since these stencils are for painting (yea!) projects, I had to have them. They are sturdy, straightforward, easy to use, and give amazing results. I’ve only experimented on some particleboard at this point, but have some big plans in store for these!Just maybe don’t tell my husband because he says I have enough projects already, and the mess in the guest room to back him up. He just doesn’t understand the artistic mind.Bottom line: great stencils for your walls, canvases, or whatever, these sturdy, easy to use and wash tools are a great addition to your arsenal. Highly, highly recommended.

Im love this set. It has some nice designs and they are on some nice quality material so that makes it easy to use them.
