Or if you want to know how to make a stencil with a Silhouette machine {super easy} check it out too!
I’ve been searching for some new stencil designs, and every since I bought my stencil cutter, making stencils is a CINCH!
If you missed my tutorial on how to make your own stencil, check it out HERE.
Here are a few stencil images that I have saved in my “inspiration” folder! I don’t have the source of most of the images…darn it.
Of course you could buy super expensive wallpaper, but when you can make a stencil to create a similar look for only $3.00, why?!?!
I love this one! I wish I could remember where this one came from.
This picture was where my stencil wall inspiration came from. I found it at Whitewall and Co.
I love the turquoise in this one.
LOVE this too!
When I first started looking into recreating a wallpaper look with a stencil, I thought about using vinyl wall decals to make the look. I came to the conclusion that vinyl is SUPER expensive, especially when I wanted to do an entire wall. So, to those that are thinking about it, it is a definite possibility, but for me, my pocketbook can’t handle that. 🙂 I’d rather spend $20.00 total on the stencil and the paint instead of $75.00 or higher on the vinyl. My thrifty core just won’t let me!
Can you picture a wall done with one of the patterns I gave you above? I sure can!

Thank you for being so creative! I also live in St. George and wondered if you would be willing to cut me a stencil. I would pay you of course. Please let me know either way, I have been looking at very expensive wall paper and this would be sooo much better, you've opened my eyes to a new world. My email is andrea.esplin@yahoo.com. Let me know, thanks so much!
Cool stencils! Thanks for sharing them.
I love these! I am so going to do this at my place. Thanks for all the great ideas and inspiration. I also plan to paint and re-uphoslter my first chair and paint a dresser all with ideas inspired by your awesome web site! Thanks again.
I love it! thank you so much. Now if only I could harness some artistic talent…..
Thank you so much for sharing these! They are wonderful! I'm going to print them off and frame them and put above our bed when we make over our bedroom! I love them! Thanks again! 🙂
WoW! These are soo awesome! I will be doing this soon! Thank you so much for sharing!
LOVE stencil cutters! I've tried the one you pictured in your post and love it. It's way easier than I thought! Thanks for the great designs.
I love it, I am so glad pattern on wall is back in style! I guess that tells my age. Oh well. . . .
Your stencil patterns are stunning. Thank You!
Love the stencils! Love the photos you posted showing how they can dramatically transform a room! Thank you!
Shucks. I can't paint my walls……oh but here's an idea. Buy neutral fabric and stencil for my headboard. And do some artwork too. You rock Brooke. thank you
How did you do that compass/paisley design on your outside wall? Do you have a stencil for that? I just love it. Two of my fav designs Mariners Compass and Paisley! Love your blog.

I used your stencil to create a project for a Silhouette Challenge. You can see it here, http://tanyascreativespace.blogspot.com/2013/08/its-time-to-try-new-craft-medium.html,
I listed you as the place where I got the stencil. THANKS for the free stencil.
