Do you have a wall in a room that needs a little zing? Does it need something that will pick it up and make it the decorative center of the room? Well, we have just what you need – our fabulous Rangoli stencil. Traditionally from India, Rangoli is a form of art in which colored sand, rice, or flower petals are used to create intricate patterns on the ground. And now you can bring some of that traditional art into your home. The Rangoli stencil offers you a unique flower design that is ideal stenciled big onto a wall in your living room, bedroom, or entryway. Choose any colors you want to enhance your decor. Or you can use the Rangoli stencil to try your hand at creating a traditional design, provided you can find the colored sand, rice, or flower petals. Perhaps you can stencil it onto a wall or window in your shop or at a community center. If you want to go smaller, you can use the Rangoli stencil to decorate furniture, such as dresser drawers, cupboard doors, or the backs of chairs or a bench. Or you can make beautiful stencil art on wood, canvas, or metal. The key is to choose the right size stencil from the range of sizes we offer, which includes: 6” x 6” 8” x 8” 12” x 12” 15” x 15” 20” x 20” 25” x 25” 30” x 30” 35” x 35” Then just get the right paint for the surface material and secure the stencil and paint. That's all there is to it. The stencil is durable and reusable, which means it's a great DIY investment. It's also ideal for lending to friends and family, which you will definitely be doing once they see what you've done with the design.

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.
