Review & Giveaway: Royal Design Stencils

Happy Friday! I’m heading to North Carolina this weekend for a Bachelorette weekend to celebrate my future-sister-in-law, Lindsey. So excited to get up in the mountains and relax!

It’s really no secret that I love stencils. I’ve already stenciled in two rooms in my house and have contemplated doing more. Stencils can add so much fun and interest to a boring wall. They can be playful, classy, elegant or whimsical. My favorite stencil company is Royal Design Studio. I’ve used them for the Powder Room with this beautiful Donatella Damask:




I love the way it makes this room feel special, like a little jewelry box.

I also used the Casablanca Trellis Moroccan Stencil for an accent wall in my Master Bedroom:

This one is much more subtle but it has just the effect that I wanted. Each stencil gives a different feeling to a room or piece of furniture.

Plus, I didn’t want to put anything over my bed and the stencil makes it interesting enough that I never even notice that I don’t have anything up there. Stencils are WAY cheaper than wallpaper, art or mirrors, people.
I could spent hours on Royal Designs’ Pinterest page. They have so many cool and interesting ideas for walls or furniture:


So… I have a giveaway! Royal Design Studio has provided me with 2 stencils to giveaway.


This is the Star Diamonds Moroccan Furniture Stencil. This is a great and super versatile stencil. It’s big enough to be used on a whole wall or small enough to be used on furniture, like this:
