Two star stencils going into the post this afternoon one is a custom sized star and the other is in our usual collection. The code is HO11. There are lots of different star stencils in our catalogue they are a perfect motif to decorate walls and ceilings. The smaller stencils are great to decorate furniture with.

A few snaps from the preview evening of Colour Matters curated by My husband had paintings exhibited. It was so crowded that I only managed a few photos. The atmosphere was great, really joyous and it is open for two more days. There were works by and many others that I don’t have Instagram information for. Check the page for information

I love this time of year when the viburnum, ceanothus, clematis and wisteria are putting on a show in The Stencil Library’s garden. The peonies and roses are following behind them.

Me “Ivory coloured cashmere is possibly not the best outfit to wear for an impromptu session stencilling a floor”.
Husband. “ I’ll do a bit while you go and change clothing”
Then, I get totally sidetracked and don’t return. However, I can hear a lot of swearing from the bit of the house.

A few photos of one of our stencilled bedrooms before I turned it into a studio. The carpet was stencilled with acrylic paint and so were the bolsters and furniture. All the gold pattern was stencilled with a glue that we make called Instant Size then transfer gold leaf was applied over it. It’s on the fabrics as well as the walls. Most of the stencils came from our Empire and French Style collections

Memories from early shoots at our home. We had recently moved to Stocksfield Hall and while we’re thinking of how to decorate all our new rooms we used them for magazine and television shoots. I think my favourites were shoots for Period Living & Traditional Home magazine because I had such fun with the editor who at the time was Clare Weatherall. She had great ideas and taught me so much. On many occasions the photographer was .sadur and I have happy memories of working with them both. If you see this Clare, thank you. You once described Chips and I as the modern day Carl and Karin Larsson and gave me a book about their home in Sweden…I was able to visit it a few years ago! The stencils were designed by us for PL&TH but we still have very similar ones in our catalogue.

A customer asked me for some help choosing colours for his mosaic stencil project … so, here’s a sample board. I hope it may inspire others too. I’ve used the mosaic stencils on wood floors, concrete paving, painted walls, pots and table tops. I’m tempted to try a fabric project with them next. There are borders, motifs and corner pieces in our range.

Seen in a boat loving friend's utility room I think my Mum might have stencilled it for him. I still have a few of that design left, I don't think it was ever in our stencil catalogue.
