Hammering a stencil

Hammering a Stencil
© linda germain 2011
So last week I went to an antique store in Georgetown looking for old plastic doilies to use as stencils.  I did not find any by I did find this metal dish on the free table outside. I took it back to the machine shop and started hammering back and forth to flatten it out.  And it works!  I really love new free finds.

  1. Gorgeous stencil! It makes such a pretty pattern.
    I was just at the recycling store in town and got a cool vinegar glass shaker (I’ll use it with paint), a textbook on the brain with fabulous images (collage fodder), and 5 mylar sheets (20″x28″) with a dress pattern on it all for $2!
