Decorating My Bedroom Walls

I love my bedroom.  It is my sanctuary.  It’s a really small space…we actually gave the biggest bedroom to my three sons that all share a room and My Better Half and I took the smaller room.

Decorating the walls in here hasn’t really been a priority so when Cutting Edge Stencils gave me the opportunity to try out some of their stencils, I jumped on the opportunity to decorate the walls with paint.

I haven’t done a decorative stencil in over 10 years so I was a little nervous but it was not at all difficult.

This was what the actual stencil looked like alone.

I then moved it around and painted more of the Virginia Creeper stencil on the wall.

I had to put a fresh coat of paint on the wall above my bed before I stenciled, so I did these little walls first and then moved on to the wall above my bed.

I used the same Virginia Creeper stencil and paint that I used on the previous walls.

Next, I waited until the first layer dried, moved the stencil a bit, and painted a darker color.

Isn’t it beautiful?  I love it!
I was thrilled with this process from start to finish.  The selection of stencils was plentiful…choosing the one I wanted was really the hardest part of the process.  The stencils came quickly and with a few little extra stencils in the box.  They were packaged nicely so as not to cause any damage during shipping.  The instructions were very clear and helpful.  And the result…{LOVE IT}.
Blessings,

I was compensated with stencils and supplies for this review but my opinions are 100% my own.

    Love your stenciling! Hard choice, but I'd take Zinnia Grande if I win.
