*** This giveaway is now closed. See who won below!***
Sorry for the late notice (travel is messing up my winner picking mojo!), but the random winner of this stencil prize is… Jen (who once “made a chevron painting with instructions I found on Pinterest and it turned out great”). Congrats Jen!
The love of stencils that first blossomed when we did our office walls only grew stronger when we tackled a couple of stenciling projects for our book (on pages 26 & 282). So in the spirit of sharing the love, this week’s prize comes from the maker of the very stencils that we used in all three cases – Royal Design Studio. We’re longtime fans of their modern shapes and patterns, and they’re starting you off with a $100 stencil gift card and throwing in a $100 “Stencil Success Kit” that includes the essentials for executing your stencil project. You’ll get a roller set, 7 brushes, and your choice of five stencil crémes. And to top it all off, how about a $50 paint allowance to the paint store of your choice? That totals a $250 kick in the pants to get your stencil on.
- PRIZE: $100 stencil gift card to Royal Design Studio, plus a “Stencil Success Kit” and a $50 paint allowance to the paint store of your choice
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “STENCIL ME!” and tell us…
- BONUS QUESTION: … one DIY project that you’ve tackled once and are dying to try again. Is it a paint project? Something building related? Are you itching to take another whack at a crafting or sewing project?
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, Nov 14th at 8pm EST or at 10,000 entries (whichever comes first)
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
- PRIZE SHIPS: We always beg every vendor to ship internationally but some companies are not legally able to vend things beyond the US (more on that here). This giveaway is open to The United States.

I would love to try some more “xerox copy lithography” Its a quick easy way to get a custom piece of art work that a teacher taught me in college
christy says
STENCIL ME!
I have a bunch a DIY projects to do but haven’t been motivated to do any of them lately. I guess the one I’d like done the most is fixing up the guest bathroom.

STENCIL ME!!
Last fall I made a super cute burlap bubble wreath for our front door, and now I’m antsy to make a new Christmas/winter wreath. If I keep going, maybe I’ll have one for every holiday/season in a few years :)
Amanda says
STENCIL ME! We currently have a HUGE tv cutout above our fireplace that we hate! We’re going to frame it in and use reclaimed tongue and groove barnwood to cover the hole and add molding all the way to the ceiling! Hopefully before we start decorating for Christmas (you’re reading this hubby, aren’t you??).
Kristin says
Stencil me! We’re getting ready to tackle another total bathroom remodel. I don’t know if it’s my favorite project — but I can’t wait to have a new space — maybe with a stenciled wall.
Amanda says
Stencil me!
I’m a very novice sewer, but as soon as I find the perfect fabric, I’m going to make a new shower curtain.
Joanna says
STENCIL ME!
Need to paint a bathroom soon!
Kay says
STENCIL ME!
I am teaching myself how to crochet and I recently finished my first blanket. I think it looks sloppy, but I can’t bear to rip it back up, so I’ll just make another one. :)
JMe says
STENCIL ME!
I added stenciled numbers to the risers of our staircase at our old house. It was so cute! Thinking about upping the ante and doing a poem on the risers at the new house.
Amy in Pittsburgh says
STENCIL ME!
Goodness, if I could ever muster the guts to try using no-sew hem tape, I’d consider myself a DIY expert. :)
claire farmer says
STENCIL ME…i have reupholstered my dining chairs but with the stencils i would love to make my entry chic-er.
Sarah M says
STENCIL ME!
Since we live in a rental and we’re not able to improve much (i.e. paint at all!), the most I do to improve the house are tiny decor touches. I loved finding prints, framing, and hanging seasonal decor on the walls.

Laura says
STENCIL ME! I want to redo my dresser.
Zory Maystruk says
Stencil Me! I sewed curtains for our old apartment but it was my first time using a sewing machine and I quickly found out that it’t hard for me to sew a straight line :) now that I’ve had a little more practice I’m excited to sew curtains for our new place!
Jenny M. says
Stencile ME!!!
We moved into a new house in the summer and since then we’ve tackled several DIY projects. My favorite is the board & batten we put in our kids bathroom! I haven’t started on my daughter’s room yet, and can’t wait. Stenciling one wall is actually something I want to do, so this would be PERFECT!!!
sarah says
STENCIL ME……
oh my….would love to have this to possible stencil the concrete kitchen floor.
latest DIY that we want to tackle again…..painting half a room and using an MDF treatment for the other half to make it look architecturally different.
Kelley Newman says
STENCIL ME!
Need to paint the rest of the kitchen.
Sara C. says
Stencil me!
I recently tried my hand at chocolate chip cookies. They were good but not perfect – I can’t wait to try again! Everyone should be able to whip up the perfect chocolate chip cookies, right?!
Alicia says
STENCIL ME!
I used to make my own scarves and hats…I’m determined to get back on the knitting horse this winter!

STENCIL ME! My latest DIY project is creating fabric earrings with cover button kits, and earring backs. They will be my christmas gifts to my girlfriends.
Courtney says
STENCIL ME! My latest project was putting together a fun table runner that people could write on for our annual friendsgiving get together. I am hoping to stencil our entry way soon before Christmas and this would be the perfect gift to get me on my way!
sheila says
STENCIL ME! I am painting and compounding the garage

Jean Ryden says
STENCIAL ME!
My basement stairs need a stencil job!

Stencil Me!
I’d like to continue painting the rest of the house. So far we’ve painted our bedrooms but kinda stalled since then. Next up is the bathroom!
Katie F. says
STENCIL ME! For Halloween, I made potion jars from wine bottles and they came out great! I’d love to see what else I can do with all the wine bottles we go through ;)
Casi says
Stencil me!!
I painted my bedroom a few times many years ago but have yet to paint anything in our last 3 apartments. I think it’s about time I break the cycle!
Karen says
Stencil me! We did a headboard for our master bedroom and now we’d love to do one for the guest room!
Melinda says
Stencil me! Thanks!
Emma says
Stencil Me!!
I’d love to build another closet. When we first did framing in the house it freaked me out so I had my dad do it. When I added a closet to the kitchen, I did most of the framing this time and it’s really fun! The drywall is tedious, especially with the size of closets, but it’d be really neat to do the framing again!
Lizzy says
Stencil me! I want to do some more reupholstery, but this time with skeepskin!
Tamara says
STENCIL ME!
i repainted all of our patio furniture last year, and now am having some serious thoughts about painting a small side table in my room… maybe with some inspiration from my amazing new young house love book!
Sarah R. says
STENCIL ME! I have a few crochet projects lined up ,and I also have a few DIY ideas lined up that I have NOT done before! I am working my way through your book (squee) but my next DIY is to do an ikea hack on the RAST side table.
Leslie says
STENCIL ME! I want to repaint our dining room. I haven’t liked the color since the day we put it up. It is a large room though, which is why it hasn’t been repainted yet.
Katie says
STENCIL ME! … pillows! My living room is in serious need of prettier pillows!
Rikke says
STENCIL ME!
I painted stripes on the wall of our guest bedroom (thanks for the inspiration and instructions!) which I loved. Might be my favorite project that I’ve done this far. And despite my ever-growing list, I really want to spice up the back of our built-in bookcases (again, inspiration from you guys), and these stencils would be perfect!
Lori says
STENCIL ME! I’d love to stencil our entryway!
Anna D says
STENCIL ME! :) Please :)
I recently made a “floating vase” which basically involves a piece of wood, and a mason jar which I attached to the piece of (painted white) wood using wire and then hung on the wall. Add flowers and voila! A floating vase :) Now…to add stencils on the wall showcasing the floating vase…..
Jen says
STENCIL ME! I’d love to try making custom pillows with bright satin fabric!
Courntey H says
STENCIL ME!!!
I’d love to tackle some more difficult sewing projects in the near future!

We just bought a house with paneling in every room. I’ve painted 3 bedrooms and can’t wait to paint the hallway, living room, kitchen/dining room, and den which are all paneled.
Jill says

I really want to figure out how to tackle my sewing machine!
Shannon says
STENCIL ME
I stenciled two walls of birch trees in my study and I adore it, as does everyone who sees it. I would love to find another WOW-factor stencil and place to do it!
Kate says
STENCIL ME!
I made paintings to match my daughters Pottery Barn quilt. They took a while, but I get a great sense of pride whenever people ask me where I bought them! :)
I just found out baby #2 is on the way, so I’d love to do that process all over again! :)
Laura Dailey says
Have an old house that needs so much work. This would make it so much more fun!
Angela says
STENCIL ME! I really want to stencil my mudroom floor.
