Shipping Label Stenciled Buffalo Check Cubbies
The idea for this project came to me when I
found this old cubbie shelf I had hidden in the basement.
I began by removing the top panel and sliding out the back panel of the box.
I stained the wood with an all in one stain that includes sealer.
While the stain dried, I recovered the back of the box with buffalo check wrapping paper. I painted DecoArt Decoupage on the white backing then used a brayer to roll out the wrapping paper and remove the bubbles.
When everything was dry I slipped the backing back into the back of the cubbies.
For the next part of this project I used Old Sign Stencil's newest stencil, the Shipping crate stencil.
You can find these stencils by visiting the dark link above.
I quickly added stencils to the sides, top and shelves of the cubbies.
I almost got carried away, it was so easy. I used a foam pouncer and in minutes had the perfect stencils all over my fun new cubbie shelf.
I filled the cubbies with my favorite reproduction enamelware tumblers for the perfect look in front of the buffalo checked backing.
