We hold a special place in our hearts for our furry family members. They cuddle with us, provide us with great company, stick close when we aren't feeling well, and love us unconditionally. And while they might not be able to understand this specific gesture of love, we can honor our pets by creating some amazing DIY art and decor that is related to them. That's the inspiration behind our awesome Heart Paw stencil. This stencil is so adorable with its paw and heart, it is bound to inspire so many passionate ideas of how to express love for your pet. Perhaps painted on the side of a doghouse, or on the wall above your pet's sleeping place. Maybe as a piece of art hanging in your home or cottage or on the side of your pet carrier. You can even paint this big and then use another stencil, such as the Home Paw Print stencil, to write words inside the heart. The best part of using the Heart Paw stencil is that you can paint whatever you would like quickly and easily. Just secure the stencil and paint using a roller, brush, or spray. But first, make sure you have the right type of paint for the surface in the colors you love and the right stencil size. We offer the stencil in the following sizes: 5” x 6” 5” x 11” 18” x 12” 24” x 18” 36” x 24” 48” x 32” 55” x 35” Honestly, you will love the Heart Paw stencil, and you will want to use it over and over again. You might even want to share it with your friends and family. One thing is for certain – with good care, this stencil will last a lifetime.

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.

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.
