Where can i find HUGE wall stencils?

Question

My friend has a blank wall they want ot paint with a cool design. where can i find a reasonable site with a stencil and we cn paint over it to make the design?

Answer 1

If you have access to either an overhead projector or an LCD display, I would recommend actually projecting the image or pattern that you want to put on the wall so that you can then trace the image or pattern and paint it.  I'm a teacher, and we do this all the time to create larger images (classroom murals, etc) and this has been a far better alternative to stencils.  I have also made my own stencils using a printer.  Print out the image or pattern and tape it to some cardstock, then cut out the image or pattern with an exacto knife and you create your own stencil.

Good luck.

Answer 2

Huge stencils are not common. I would go to a local craft store, buy a image projector (I got one around $20) and find the design or draw the design you want on a peice of paper. Then use the projector, trace it onto the wall with a pencil, and paint in. I've done this to paint chandelier silhouettes on my walls and it worked wonderfully.

Here is an idea for HGTV. If Jen wins design star she should start a line of huge stencils.
