Christmas Sweater Print Stencil

Christmas Sweater Print Stencil - Reusable - 7.5 MIL (190 Micron) Thick Mylar

We love Christmas sweaters. The ugly Christmas sweater has definitely made a splash in recent years. The idea of something warm and cozy during the holiday season fills us with thoughts of sitting by the fire sipping hot chocolate. It is with these types of thoughts in mind that we have made our amazing Christmas Sweater Print stencil. The Christmas Sweater Print stencil is a pattern of three sweater inspired shapes that resemble poinsettias, surrounded by smaller flowers and tiny x-shaped stitches. This is the perfect stencil design for so many projects. Use it to decorate gift bags and boxes. Decorate t-shirts and turtlenecks. You can even use it to create a repeating pattern that is perfect for a wall border, whether you run a year-round Christmas store or you just like the design for a room in your home or cottage. Regardless of how you plan to use the Christmas Sweater Print stencil, they key is to use the right paint for the surface material and to get the right stencil size. We laser-cut the stencil with precision in the following sizes: 3” x 6” 5” x 11” 18” x 8” 11” x 24” 36” x 16” 48” x 22” 55” x 25” The detail in the Christmas Sweater Print stencil in fine, so take care when securing the stencil and painting. If repeating the pattern, the marks at the edge of the pattern can be used as registration marks. If you want, you can pair this stencil with any of our other Christmas stencils, such as the Let It Snow stencil. And of course, as with all our stencils, this stencil is reusable. Just wash it and store it safely away until you or someone you know needs it again.

Here are some advantages of using Mylar stencil material:

• FLEXIBLE: Mylar can wrap around cylinders and uneven or irregular surfaces, and can be rolled for shipping and storage.
• EASY TO CLEAN: Our Mylar is solvent proof, so cleaning up paint or ink is quick and simple.
• REUSABLE: Our stencils are built to withstand normal painting wear and tear, and keeping your stencil template clean is the best way to ensure a longer life.
• DURABLE: Mylar sheets are reputably the strongest type of stencil material, and maintains durability without compromising the pliable structure.

7.5 MIL MYLAR STENCIL MATERIAL

• Medium Weight. Feels as thick as card stock
• 7.5 Mil (0.19 mm) thickness
• Very flexible for tight curves and cylinder shapes
• Recommended for fine detailed craft stencils and smaller stencils
• Reusable as long as they are kept clean and well maintained

WHY DO WE RECOMMEND MYLAR?

As mentioned before, the best way to achieve a perfectly painted stencil with a very nice paint edge is to use a stencil material that is as thin as possible for your project. At the same time, you also want a material that wont absorb paint or any liquid because this will cause the stencil to deteriorate. A stencil made from paper, cardstock or paperboard will become saturated with paint or ink rather quickly, and this causes a crusty, uneven edge that can never be removed.

Another option for stencils, and one that quickly comes to mind when we discuss durability, is metal stencils. While these thick, unbendable stencils do have their place for some industrial applications where paint overspray and running doesnt quite matter as much, they can be very expensive and heavy to ship.

There are some other plastics that are used for stencil manufacturing, but these are typically cut with a die cutter so there is a limited amount of detail that can be achieved. And because this older, traditional process takes so much work and expense to set up for each stencil design, the minimum are often in the 1000s.
