Yay, stencilling is back, and I can totally recommend these contemporary stencils by Nicolette Tabram, check out her website HERE for stencils, paint, workshops and plenty of inspiration.
First I painted my 'cheap as chips' wood effect table with 2 coats of Annie Sloan chalk paint in graphite. Then used the stencil and stencil paint to completely cover the top of the table with pattern. I practiced first on paper to get the correct placement of the design.
To protect from water splashes and scuffs, I finished with 2 thin coats of dead flat varnish.
Easy peasy, my table has taken pride of place in the bathroom and I'm looking around the house for my next upcycling project!
