- Americana Acrylic Paint
- Glorious Gold
- Americana Fabric Painting Medium
- Stencil Brush
- Repositionable Spray Adhesive
- Frog Tape
- Paper Plates (or Paint Trays)
- Paper Towels
- Clothes Iron
- Ironing Board
- Hair Dryer
- Piece of fabric (to cover sham during ironing)
Preparing the Stencil
After recieving your custom stencil, flip it over and spray the underside with Repositionable Spray Adhesive.
Wait about thirty seconds for the spray to become tacky.
Stencil Positioning
Next, mark the boundaries of the where the text will show using Frog Tape.
Position the stencil so that the text is centered within the marked area, and also that it reads in the correct direction when the sash is worn.
Press it in place all around.
Preparing the Paint
Thoroughly shake your bottle of Glorious Gold DecoArt Metallic Acrylic Paint prior to pouing out a small amount on to a paper plate.
Shake and add an equal amount of Fabric Medium and stir until completely blended using your stencil brush.
Remove excess paint from the brush using the edge of the plate and also by swirling the bristles on a stack of paper towels.
Too much paint on the brush may cause it to bleed underneath the stencil.
Stenciling
Lightly apply the color using the same swirling motion as you did on the paper towels.
Stencil numerous light coats to achieve even coverage throughout the design.
When finished, carefully peel away the stencil.
Your new Custom Stenciled Sash is now complete and ready to be the star of the celebration!
