project sample: hiding a vertical line on the wall |

We got an exciting challenge of what to do with the line problem on the wall?
It was a background of two color mix with vertical line between them.
We stenciled this wall choosing the lovely Celtic Knot Inspired Cat, thanks to Ms.Patricia Sipes for an opportunity to use her wonderful design! The design includes a long vertical line which was just perfect detail for our wall stenciling project.
The first picture below is what we got showing the problem of two colors on the wall. The second picture is the sketch with suggestion of the specific design. The rest of the pictures is stenciling process getting the design applied on the wall. The pictures showing the application of the first beige layer. The second layer in burgundy red color has been applied by reusing the same stencil. The second layer is applied in few centimeters distance from the beige pattern, this way the light beige tone looks like getting a shadow.
However, the pattern in one layer looks nice, too.

The wall paint was applied using a small painting roller. Please remember stenciling being a "dry brush technique", the paint amount on the painting tool has to be really tiny, it`s important to soak well the paint into the roller, to press out all extra paint remains having roller surface almost dry when stenciling. The first layer is thin so we wait until it dries, leaving stencil attached on the wall. After that stenciling is finalized with one more layer, the pattern lines become thicker, sharper and painting is well done Water based colors dry very fast, so stenciling did not take more than just 2 hours, including coffee breaks and social events playing with pets. The preparation and designing work lasted much longer.
