Be One of a Kind

While Summer is coming to an end, what’s a better way than to prepare your notebooks, journals, and planners before your work load creeps in!

Stylize those plain books of yours, by customizing them with our lettered stencils.

It’s back to school and we’re all tired of those name tags we used to have in elementary school. So, get creative and personalize your belongings with a DIY.

Step 1. Gather your supplies: books, Stencil1 letter stencils, marker, brushes, and paint colors. Have tape and repositionable adhesive spray mount if needed.

Step 2. Spray the back of the letter you want to use and place it on the spot of the book you want to customize. If you feel that some letters are too close and you are afraid of spreading the paint, cover it up with tape.

Step 3.  Load up your brush with the paint color you have chosen. Make sure your first layer is not too thick by dabbing away any extra paint. You can always add an extra layer until you’re satisfied with the consistency and color.

Step 4. Let the wet paint sit for a bit, then carefully peel off the stencil.

Step 5. Make sure the paint is completely dry before adding a new design. Feel free to mix-and-match stencils from our other collections to add personal touches.
