People Silhouette Stencils 12 Pcs, Large Reusable Painting Templates

Why we make it this way

Figures are the hardest thing to paint freehand and the thing that makes a wall or a canvas look finished. Twelve templates at 11.6 by 8.2 inches gives you single figures, pairs and groups, which is enough to build a composition rather than repeat one shape.

ABS rather than card or mylar, so they lie flat, take a wipe between colours and survive being used more than once. They suit wall work, canvas, fabric and furniture. Hold the edge down and work from the outside in with a dry brush or a sponge — a loaded brush is what causes bleed, not the stencil.

What the maker states

• Capture Life in Motion: You get human figures, group poses and characters that come together in lively scenes. Each neat outline helps you create gallery-style displays with no freehand skill needed
• Bring a Warm, Romantic Mood: You can paint a tender, two-person pairing for a love-themed look that suits any space. The result feels personal and heartfelt, made for a partner or the rooms you share
• Easy for First-Time Painters: You can rest a template on walls, fabric, furniture, paper, glass, floor or tile, then fill it with acrylic, a sponge brush or spray paint for crisp, repeatable shapes
• Add a Pyrography Touch: You can trace any design with a pencil, lift the template, then go over it with a wood-burning marker or pen for a rich, hand-burnt finish on signs, plaques and serving trays
• A Thoughtful Handmade Present: You can hand this set to a loved one, a relative or a craft-loving friend who enjoys home decor. Made from sturdy ABS plastic, it wipes clean and lies flat between uses
