See didn't I tell you that was an easy! And for your convenience, I've added in a quick recap!
Here's What You'll Need:

- Acrylic craft paint (FolkArt found at Michaels or JoAnns)
- Large styrofoam plate
- Low tack painters tape
- Paper towels
Here are the Simple Steps to Stenciling the Imagine Wall Stencil:
In this video, we’ve used our Imagine Wall Stencil on a wall. Before we began, we made sure the walls clean and dust-free!
1. You can place the wall quote stencil anywhere you want on the wall and adhere it with a few pieces of blue painters tape. Do not opt for masking tape, as it will be too sticky and potentially pull off paint from the wall when you remove it! 2. Just slide the clip-on stencil level onto your Imagine Wall Stencil to ensure that the stencil is placed straight on the wall. It goes on very easy and you should make sure it sits tight against the stencil. Once it's in place make sure the bubble is between the two black lines and that's going to tell you that your stencil is level.
3. Pour some of the paint color you desire onto your styrofoam plate.
4. Blot off the excess paint onto your folded paper towel until the brush looks almost dry. It is key to use as little paint as possible when stenciling. Too much paint will cause the design to bleed and smudge.
5. Since we're painting this stencil in a rainbow color scheme, we've painted each color in a horizontal line. Build up your paint coverage slowly.
6. After you've painted the stencil, wait about five minutes to remove the stencil from the wall and WAHLA! A beautiful positive message in a fun rainbow color scheme!
