Getting your table ready for stenciling is important but easy. First, if your table has a glass top like ours did, remove it and set it to the side. This will make the project so much simpler than trying to work around the glass. Next, scuff the surface of your table with a Scotch Brite finishing pad. This will help the paint to stick to your table when stenciling!
With a bit of denatured alcohol on a paper towel, remove any dust or grease that might be on the surface of the table. No need for your paper towel to be soaked with denatured alcohol. Only a small amount is necessary.
For all of the supplies used for this stencil project, check the list below:
Finding the midpoint of your table before stenciling will help ensure your stencil pattern is centered. The easiest way to find the midpoint is by taking a piece of string and tying it to two of the table’s legs directly across from each other. Make sure the string is pulled taught so the string is as straight as possible.
With the string as a guide, take a chalk pencil and draw a straight line where you believe the center of the table to be. This doesn’t have to be perfect by any means because once you repeat this process with the other two legs of the table, the midpoint will become clear.
Untie the string and repeat the process using the other two opposite legs of the table. After you’ve drawn your line, remove the string. There will be a cross where the two lines meet. This is your midpoint and where the center of your stencil should be placed! How easy was that?
Stenciling Your Side Table
Now it’s time to get your stencil on! Place your Abundance Mandala Stencil in your side table, allowing the center of the stencil to rest on the midpoint of your table. Don’t be afraid to bend your stencil to make it conform with the shape of your table. Sometime furniture can be oddly shaped but the best part about stencils is they are flexible!
Evenly coat your 4” stencil roller with paint and offload any excess paint onto a paper towel. This is one of the most important steps when it comes to stenciling! The number one mistake is having too much paint on your stencil roller or brush which can cause paint seepage. The goal is to have your stencil roller evenly covered with paint but to be almost dry to the touch. For more in-depth instructions, check out our How To Stencil section on our website!
Apply light pressure to your stencil roller when stenciling. It’s best to apply thin layers of paint to your mandala stencil to help reduce bleed. Plus, you can always go back and add another coat if necessary!
Peel back the stencil to reveal this gorgeous mandala! Such an intricate design can be easily created with just a stencil.
Sealing Your Stenciled Side Table
Now that your side table is stenciled, wait for the paint to dry completely. To seal your table and prevent damage we suggest using 2-3 coats of water-based polyurethane. Take a 4” stencil roller or a nylon paintbrush and work the polyurethane from one side to the other. The surface should be wet and easy to manipulate throughout the process. Make sure each coat dries before applying the next. Pro Tip: check the sides of your table for any excess polyurethane that could have dripped over during the process.
