Video Transcript

"Hi I'm Melody on behalf of Expert Village I'm going to talk a little bit about stencils and I have a couple of different kinds with me today. Since I have this one in my hand I think I talk about this one this one came in a package like this with a similar design to show you what it could look like if painted it the way they had it painted and today in a future segment I'm going to show you just a quickie on how to use this type of stencil. We also have letters and numbers which are very inexpensive you could use this sort of thing on your house, against the wall of your house you can put your house number on it if you want to. If you have something where you want to have a alphabetical letter on it. There are all different styles of number and stencil, they come with the large and the small of the alphabet typically. This particular one is just large block and I got it for a simple project I got at home. If you child has a toy box could you put the first letter of there name on it and put maybe some different designs around it in a circle or add different patterns. So as you can see these are really large they come in different sizes these are plastic and they also come in cardboard and there is just everything you can think of in here. Alright in the next segment what I'm going to show you is actually how to apply using the brush and a small amount of gold paint. "
