I took a trip to Muji the other day to buy some plain items that I could stencil. I found these simple pillow cases that I thought would be perfect to stencil a design onto from the new book. I am not sure why I am on such a turquoise kick, but I used it again to paint with! For this project, all you need is fabric paint, a stencil brush, a stencil and a pillowcase.  I stenciled a design on each side just to test both out and voila! Check it out.

I felt it important to show you just what you get in the new book so here are some quick pics of the stencils pulled out of their folder. You get 10 precut plastic stencils(in addition to the awesome pictures and how-to’s ! ). Each stencil is large, 11 inches by 11 inches. The black and white pages you see are just inserts between the stencils for you to see the designs. I am about to get all these stencils covered in paint, I am making 200 tote bags! I’ll show that next post. Hope that helps!

Last night I did a one hour stencil demo at the grand opening of Michaels, their first store in Manhattan. The store is spectacular, well worth a visit- Very geared towards the New York audience. Well the staff deserves big praise, they helped me the entire night and we had fun together showing people how to stencil tote bags, cards, t-shirts, and a pumpkin! Check out the pictures! Thanks Chronicle Books and Michaels!
