Stencils for the Garden

Now, that I have played with stencils, I was totally inspired to use stencils to add color to my garden. I found a great set of 30 plus Mandala stencils. Found on Amazon for about $11.00.

These are 6×6 inches and are reusable (plastic)

Also from Amazon is 60 wood panels which are also 6×6 inches.

I ordered 60 panels because that is what it will take to decorate my garden. I will also add larger panels that will not be stencils but something else.
Panel in progress!
So easy! And they don’t have to be perfect.
First 20, 40 to go!
Abe guards the panels.
I added a few layers of clear gloss to protect the panel from the elements.
The first five are in place. Fifty- five more to go!

Hey There! My book "Artful Embroidery On Canvas!", was published in 2020. Thanks for checking out my blog! It's a mix of projects, reports on creativity and whatever else I may have to say. I'm a San Francisco Bay Area-based mixed medium artist who is especially interested in embroidery, installations and all that’ll art for art’s sake! UPDATE: My embroidery has been on hiatus since February 2023 which was when my husband started to feel ill. Sadly, he passed in March 2023 and so, the blog veered into a more personal direction. I'm ending my art hiatus later this September. Life has become a bit complicated but I will be back to blogging more on art and still describing my daily life as an artist, a woman, a mother, a daughter and struggling widow. Thanks for reading along.
