The Stencil Book: With over 30 Stencils to Cut Out or Trace

by Amelia Saint George

All in color, with special stencils included! Over 30 stencil patterns to cut out or trace, and all the basic techniques to make it easy for beginners to get started decorating floors, walls, fabric, and furniture. There are so many ways to use stencils to create a unique style, whether on a small project or throughout a room. Make stencils from scratch, add color effects and backgrounds (with spray paint or a brush), or develop a theme by mixing related designs. Decorate a wall with parachutes and planes; give country cupboards a Victorian-inspired leafy motif; and please cat-lovers with smiling, sleeping pussycats in alternating colors. Other stencils include an elaborate Rossini Frieze; a sophisticated black-and-white fleur-de-lis; swags and bows; a cornucopia for a kitchen; a carpet of leaves; and many others. Trim 8 1/2 x 11.

A beautiful book. You do need to check it out & see if the patterns are what you are looking for. It does include stencils as well.
