FREE DOWNLOADS! Available here: DIY stencil templates suitable for use with fabric spray paint. You can also visit our friends in America for stacks more free stencil designs. Stencil art is special - not all designs are suitable unless adjusted so the details 'tie' with the background. How to make your own stencils? Print the stencil design on plain paper, place a transparent stencil template sheet on top, and cut the design using a craft knife. A light coat of spray adhesive will keep the stencil in place while you apply spray fabric paint, spray stencil paint, or regular liquid fabric paint using a brush or sponge.
