Owl Stencil

Owl Stencil - Reusable - 7.5 MIL (190 Micron) Thick Mylar

Owls are the symbol of wisdom, with their big round eyes and their thoughtful stare. These solitary, nocturnal birds have had important symbolism and mythological importance in many cultures around the world. The owl stencil represents death for some cultures and good luck in others. In Native American cultures, stories of owls were used to frighten children into staying inside at night with tales of how the owl would get them if they went outside. In today's modern culture, we see the owl as something beautiful and difficult to get a glimpse of, which is why our owl stencil is a great addition to your decor. Stencil this design somewhere in your home and you will be able to enjoy its presence every day. You can paint the owl on a wall in a child's bedroom or home playroom or in a playroom at church or at a community center. Or you can take it smaller and create wood or metal art, stencil it onto furniture, or put it on decorative boxes, gift bags and boxes, or posters and signs. No matter what you choose to do with the owl design stencil, you will see the detail come alive in your design. The big round eyes, the beak and ears, the feathery detail, and even the claws on the owl's feet. This level of detail is possible because we laser-cut all our stencils onsite in a variety of sizes, which include: 5” x 6” 8.5” x 11” 18” x 12” 24” x 18” 36” x 24” 48” x 32” 55” x 35” So, choose the color you want your owl to be, make sure the paint is right for the surface, and secure the owl stencils. The detail will come alive in a crisp image once the stencil is removed. Then you can wash the stencil and save it for the next DIY project you come up with.

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.
