Our First Home Housewarming Sign Stencil

Our First Home Housewarming Sign Stencil - Reusable - 7.5 MIL (190 Micron) Thick Mylar

There is nothing like the feeling of buying your first house or condo. That feeling of security and pride in homeownership is exhilarating – and you want to share it with everyone. That is why the housewarming party was invented, so you can have everyone you know come over and help you celebrate your new digs, your forever home. And we created our Our First Home Housewarming Sign stencil to help you commemorate your special occasion. This stencil says, “Our First Home,” and the “o” in “Home” is replaced with a heart. There is a set of keys below the words to add a nice finishing touch. There are so many possibilities of what you can do with this stencil, and of course, what you choose to do will depend on who you are. If you are the new homeowner, this design will work to make handmade invitations to your housewarming or a great big huge sign to display at your party. If you are a friend or family of the new homeowner, you can make a wonderful piece of art on canvas, metal, or wood for them hang in their home. If you're a real estate agent or lawyer, you can make art made with this stencil a gift for your new homeowning clients, perhaps handing it to them along with their new keys. Regardless, you'll need to get the type of paint that suits the surface material on which you are painting and the right stencil size for the job. We laser cut this 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” No matter who you are or how you use this stencil, it won't take up much of your all too precious time. Just secure it to the surface and paint. The image that remains when you remove the stencil will be perfect, then this reusable stencil just needs to be washed and stored safely away for another time.

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.
