About Cindy
Testimonials
If you're looking for a way to enliven a plain wall, try stamping. It's easier than stenciling, and produces similar results. Purchase stamps at a craft store or home center. Home Depot has some nice ones associated with Behr's Disney color line of paints.
Before you stamp on the walls, try out the technique on a board painted in the background color of the wall. Apply colorful latex paint to the stamp with a sponge brush. Stamp it once on a paper towel if necessary to remove excess paint. Then press it on the board, pressing the entire back.
