How to make free printable letter stencils

Making free printable letter stencils is a fun and easy way to create a personal touch to any decor.

Things You’ll Need:

* Photoshop software
* acetate paper
* tape
* stencil brush
* sponge

Step1
Use a Photoshop type of software program to personally design your own letter stencils or find free printable ones from many sources online.

Step2
Use the photo imaging software to enlarge, minimize, or create bubble letter designs to your liking.

Step3
Print out your finished letter stencil patterns and set them aside.

Step4
Use acetate paper to trace your letters on removing the necessary open areas. Leave a 3 inch border around your pattern to allow for design stability.

Step5
Tape your acetate pattern to whatever your are creating your stencil on and apply small amounts of paint to the open areas of the stencil. Apply your color slowly and blot deliberately with your stencil brush or sponge to avoid getting a bubble in your paint.

Step6
Let your patterns dry and then slowly remove them from their surface. Now you have created your own free alphabet designs for borders, art, or to enhance furniture using your printable letter stencils.
