It represents purity, prosperity and beauty. Amber beautifully interpreted this stencil with creamy white paint and light gray background in her bathroom. We think it looks pretty heavenly!

Nomadic Decorator is always inspired by the silk material and exotic patterns of Saris. Instead of going to great lengths to create this handwoven fabric or travel all the way to India, she opted to stencil India inspired patterns onto an old wooden panel. She also used our Royal Stencil Cremes to make this panel go from flat and lifeless to glowing with metallic color. For the full tutorial, check out Inspired by Saris: A Shimmery DIY Stenciled Door.

You can also bring a dose of Indian inspired style to your furniture too! Our Annapakshi Damask Stencil looks great as an allover pattern, but also as an individual focal element. We stenciled this single design on this upholstered chair and love how the little bit of pattern gave the room some interest without overpowering it.
