cutting edge stencils giveaway / and my curtains

Uncategorized

 welcome to Twigg Studios first ever giveaway, Cutting Edge Stencils is giving one lucky reader a chance to win one of their amazing stencils, heres what i did with mine.

 I did the bird patten on these curtains using a stencil, from Cutting Edge Stencils, i had planned to use the casablanca craft stencil for these curtains, but i received this bird stencil too, which they are giving away with every order, and i decided to use it.

 stencilling is so easy with these stencils, and there is so many to choose from,

heres how i did my curtains

 i taped the stencil on to the curtain,

 then i put paint in to a roller tray, and i used a foam roller (which you can purchase along with your stencil) i put the roller in the paint and rolled off excess paint on the tray, then you need to roll the roller on to some kitchen towels as you dont want too much paint on your roller, trust me less is more.

 then roll lightly over the stencil, not pressing to hard and repeat, the large all over stencils are designed in such a way that you can easily join up where you left off . and if that is not amazing enough they also supply you with a small stencil to make it easier to do the top and bottom of wall. and they have great videos and instructions on their site to walk you through it.

now they match my bird wallpaper
here is some of my favorite stencils that they have
wallpaper-stencil-birch-forest
ikat wallpaper stencil

  27. I'd like the Sycamore Reaching stencil–I think that was the name, brain fog from my cold, LOL. They're all super, so hard to choose.

  29. I follow you by email also. My favorite has to be the Anna Damask. I have been dying to try these out. I would love to win!

  34. There are so many awesome stencils but I love the polka dot all over stencil. I love anything polka dots because they make me happy!! Thank you for this giveaway!

  38. I can not decide which I would choose. Either the polda dot all over, or the houndstooth all over, or the casablanca. For sure one of those three! Even if I dont win, I WILL be stenciling when I move into my new house in May!

  45. I so love the Paisley Allover Stencil from Cutting Edge Stencils. I love the job you did creating your gorgeous curtains. This will be my 13th, yes thirteenth time trying to post on here…… wish me luck just doing that? And so wanted to win that stencil.

  46. I am following Cutting Edge Stencil's on Facebook and I love everything the show so far. I have my favorites too, just like everyone. The Paisley Allover is my very favorite, but I love a few more as well.

    I love Facebook too. I will be looking forward to seeing more of your work as well Aimee. And do you know Diane Henkler? She is "inmyownstyle.com". She is the one that turned me on to several that led me to your site here.

  56. I love that you are running a contest for stencils. I have been following Cutting Edge Stencils and hope to try the Zamira stencil in the future. Not sure whether it's my computer or what, but am having a bit of a time reading the posts on your blog – the background is a little overwhelming. Hope to find out where to sign on for the blog:)
    thanks

  64. Oh good golly goodness! Soooo many I'd want to try. I think I'd have to go with English Ivy or the birch tree one, but, boy would I love to try any of those out.
    Thanks for the chance!
