Oh Canada Barn Moose Bear Quilt Stencil - Reusable - 7.5 MIL (190 Micron) Thick Mylar
Canada is a unique country with many uniquely identifying symbols of what it means to be Canadian. There's maple syrup, the Canada goose, the great white north, and of course, bears and moose. It is a vast land that is full of a landscape as unique as the region of Canada in which it can be found. And we wanted to honor Canada, so we created our fabulous Oh Canada Barn Moose Bear Quilt stencil. This stencil design captures the uniqueness of Canada in the beauty and practicality of a quilt square that you can paint anywhere. It has a central design and four corner designs, each with the maple leaf in the center, and in between the corner designs there is a bear or a moose. It's fun and lively and easy to paint. It would be ideal for creating some great Canadian stencil art to hang in your home or cottage. You could make a fabric panel to hang, paint it on a blanket or curtains, or paint it onto a Canadian barn. No matter what you choose to do, you have a range of sizes to choose from. Large, medium, or small, we have it all, including the following sizes: 6” x 6” 8” x 8” 12” x 12” 15” x 15” 20” x 20” 25” x 25” 30” x 30” 35” x 35” Now, here's the key to using this stencil any way you want. Get Canadian colors and make sure the paint is made specifically for the surface material on which you are painting. If you have that part down, your DIY art will turn out perfectly. Just secure the stencil to the surface and paint, then wash the stencil and tuck it away or pass it on. There are plenty of people who would love to make some great Canadian art the DIY way.

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.
