Tired As A Mother Stencil

Tired As A Mother Stencil - Reusable - 7.5 MIL (190 Micron) Thick Mylar

We can promise you, there is no person on earth more tired than a mother. Our mothers are the people who wake up with us at night, who spend half the night making our Halloween costume, who lay awake all night worrying about us when we begin to leave the nest. They learn to go on very little sleep and still manage to be kind and loving, when most people would be absolute bears. Our mothers deserve recognition for their sacrifices, which is why we have created our Tired As A Mother stencil. This stencil design is full of fun and sheer honesty – because mothers are tired people! And whether you are a mother, or you have a mother (and we all do), you can create something truly special with this stencil. It says simply, “Tired as a Mother,” but the font is bold and brilliant. This would look great painted almost anywhere! Seriously, you could make stencil art with this design, but you could also paint it on the wall of a maternity store, in a greeting card, on t-shirts, or even ice it onto a cake. Yes, this stencil is made from food-grade material. All you need is the right paint (or icing!) and you can paint on any surface, such as canvas, wood, metal, walls, glass, plastic, and more. Add to this the right stencil size for your project, and you will be unstoppable. Available sizes include: 5” x 6” 5” x 11” 18” x 12” 24” x 18” 36” x 24” 48” x 32” 55” x 35” So, if you want to honor the many hours of sleep your mother gave up for you or you want your family to know how much sleep you give up for them, this is the way to do it. But you won't lose any sleep painting. This stencil is so easy to use it will just take a few minutes from setup to cleanup. Secure the stencil, paint, remove, wash. That's all there is to it! Then you can pass it on to the next tired mother you know.

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.
