Stencils


These paper stencils belonged to my gran.

My mother used to let us play with them when we were little.


It was much more fun than colouring-in!

gorgeous. are they stiff like cardstock? I made some temporary stencils out of wax paper and had too much smearing.

we're having a lot of luck using transparency sheets to make new stencils. they're as much fun to make as to use!

Wow, looks like printing runs in the family! Beautiful stencils! Were they for wall paper or for fabric?
