Rosemaling Pattern 1 Stencil Template 7" x 9" for Painting on Wood, Walls, Fabric & Furniture – Traditional Scandinavian Folk Art Design for DIY & Home Projects – The Artful Stencil

Product is very durable, and I have used the stencil numerous times with no problems at all. Great purchsase.

I like the design, a simple Scandinavian design for a wooden box. The size was perfect and true to the product description. The stencil must be completely wrinkle free and flat to be used. But there were TWO PROBLEMS:1. PACKAGING CHOICE CAUSED THE STENCIL TO BE DAMAGED: the stencil is made of sturdy pliable plastic and was shipped in a soft bubble pack envelope. That is really dumb, because the stencil had a deep crease and was wrinkled when I received it, and was unusable. I exchanged it at no cost, but had to wait another week. The replacement stencil arrived again in the same bubble pack envelope, but by luck, was not wrinkled or damaged this time. This choice of packaging is really dumb!2. THERE WERE NO INSTRUCTIONS on how to paint a stencil!! I have never painted a stencil before, and needed to know how to do it!!!! Fortunately I had a friend who told me how to lightly spray the paint over the stencil many times so it does not bleed or drip. Why are there NO INSTRUCTIONS?????
