Falling in Love with Stencils

In Family on November 22, 2009 at 3:45 pm

What I learned while painting Elizabeth’s room is the following:

The prep work takes the longest and is the least fun.
Painting a ceiling sucks as much as you thought it would.
Painting a wall is quick and easy.
But the one task that brought me the most joy was stenciling.

Stenciling is so much fun! You get a huge impact and a custom look for very little effort and time. That is my kind of painting.

Next on Marie’s to-do list (which is so much shorter than Dan’s to-do list. Not that I’m bragging.): Make curtains for Elizabeth’s room.

This is a post from Knitted Gem’s blog, authored by Marie Haigh.
