Do you remember my post about my wall of mirrors? Did you notice the walls?!? I am in LOVE with the new color and design. When I started planning out my bedroom, I knew I wanted to go dark and somewhat dramatic…dark walls and light furniture. I also wanted to add some texture to the walls, but didn’t want it too high of a contrast.
The solution was to use a stencil. I decided to get the Antico Allover Wall Pattern from Cutting Edge Stencils. I watched a few of their videos and got to work!
I got a clip-on level and it made the job go such quicker and easier. I was amazed at how fast I got a wall done!
NOW to clarify…I like imperfect! The more it was not uniform the better, for me. So, doing it quickly was good and gave me the desired effect that I wanted.
I used Valspar Signature Dove Gray in eggshell for the base coat, then stenciled with a custom color. For the custom color, I had them mix a small quart in satin a shade darker.
What do you think?
It took me a little time but I saved a ton compared to wall paper! (AND I can just paint over it when I want a change!)
I have been following Cutting Edge on FB for a while. I love them and can’t wait to use them in my home!!!

The ‘Chinese Ginkgo’ is lovely-I’m a great admirer of this ancient tree. Since I’m an advid gardner and nature lover, this would be perfect for my bedroom.
Love what you did! I just did something similar with flat and gloss with the Zagora stencil. I’m hooked now! I think I’d go for the birds if paradise damask stencil for my next project. It looks very similar to turn of the last century wallpaper patterns.
I love the large CHEVRON ALLOVER STENCIL PATTERN

It is so hard to pick just one. But being as I will be painting my son’s bathroom next, I am going to pick my favorite stencil for that project. 🙂 I would use the “Zulu Allover Stencil.” I imagine doing a robot shower curtain as such with it. 🙂
