Are you ready for a stencil adventure? Take the road less traveled with your wall by including the bohemian look of our Camel Safari Wall Stencil! We designed this stencils with kid’s rooms in mind, but love how it can also take on an Arabian Nights in rich metallic colors. Watch the video and follow the step by step instructions below to see how you can quickly create a metallic wallpaper look in your home using the rich, dreamy colors of our Metallic Royal Stencil Cremes collection.
Supplies:
- Camel Safari Wall Stencil
- Royal Stencil Cremes: Antique Gold, Bright Gold, Antique Silver, Shimmer Pink, Orange Ice, Peacock Fancy, Lime Shine
- Royal Stencil Brushes: 1 ½” and 3/8”
- Painter’s tape and paper towels
Step 1: Center the stencil on the wall and secure with painter’s tape.
Step 2: Mix 1 part Bright Gold with ½ part Antique Gold Royal Stencil Crème paints.
Step 3: Load the stencil brush with the custom gold mix by dipping the tips of the brush into the paint. Offload excess paint on a paper towel.
Step 4: Use a circular motion and even pressure to stencil the camel bodies with the custom gold color and 1 ½” stencil brush. Stencil the eight pointed stars with Bright Gold and the other stars with Antique Silver. Stencil the details of the camel saddles with Shimmer Pink, Orange Ice, Peacock Fancy and Lime Shine. Use the smaller 3/8” stencil brushes so that you don’t have to tape off each element.
Step 5: Remove the stencil from that position and use the registration marks on the stencil to reposition the pattern outwards and/or downwards. Secure the stencil in the new position with painter’s tape.
Step 6: Repeat Steps 3 through 5 until the entire wall is stenciled with colorful camels!
