Learning how to stencil on wood can open up an entire world of possibilities when it comes to the art you create. Plus, if you teach others how to paint, creating vinyl stencils for your students can be a fun, easy way to help them create custom pieces.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to Get a Vinyl Stencil<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You don’t have to have a stencil cutter to use stencils. You can order stencils online, or buy some in stores. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For those of you who are in Paint Party Headquarters<\/a>, you get the rights to several fun designs! Plus, you’ll get a lot of fun marketing materials to plug and play and grow your business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That being said, I personally do have a vinyl cutter and use it all the time. There are so many home machines that allow you to do this now, like with a Cricut machine. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Type of Vinyl Should I use?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

I use Oracle 813 vinyl when I make my own stencils. It’s a one-time use, lightweight vinyl that’s flexible. It’s the easiest vinyl to work with for stencils in my opinion! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Should My Stencil Say?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This is the fun part\u2014it can say anything you want! In this particular piece, I opted to add lyrics from Lauren Daigle’s incredible song, You Say. If you haven’t heard this one, I highly encourage you to listen to it!<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
