Instagram and design inspiration go hand in hand. How so? Well, everyone on Instagram loves to share what is the latest, greatest most special things happening their lives, including their own DIY decorating feats. We are seeing more and more stylish trendsetters decorate their homes with stencil designs instead of store-bought decor. That’s because stenciling comes with an affordable price tag, color customization opportunities, and DIY bragging rights! It’s no wonder these ideas are being shared everywhere and featured on @royalstencils and under the #royaldesignstudio hashtag! Scroll down to be insta-inspired to stencil and share something special yourself…
IKEA hack! Update your bland and boring dresser to make it look upscale and up-to-date with stencils! @lasedo used our Shibori Furniture Stencil and stain to make this piece look designer.
Guess what? Those subway tiles were painted and NOT installed! With only paint and our Subway Tiles Herringbone Wall Stencil, @theghostesswiththemostest was able to completely transform her bathroom into a modern space that she is proud for her guests to see.
“Hi, I’m Leslie and I’m addicted to painting all the tile in my house. Send help.” We totally understand how @leslieknopp got the ‘stenciling bug’. Her Toledo Tile Stenciled floor is gorgeous!
@craveinteriors has a beautiful boho modern midcentury home and found that our Tribal Batik Furniture Stencil would be a great way to upcycle this piece to match her style. What does this inspire you to stencil in your own home?
“‘Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter.' -Mark Twain Trying to remember that for myself! I definitely think age does not harm this piece, actually quite the opposite!” - @thehousewarmings used the Zahara Moroccan Furniture Stencil to upcycle this reclaimed cabinet and make it more beautiful than it ever was.
@leslielowpz painted her large concrete patio floor with our All The Angles Stencil for a bold and modern tile look (without the real tile!). Now this green and black outdoor space is ready for summertime BBQ’s!
Instead of laying out an expensive rug, what if you’re feeling extra creative and stencil DIRECTLY into the floor? @carolinebean7 (📷 @catnguyenphoto) used our Chunky Cable Knit Stencil along with handpainted tassel details to create a realistic floor rug. Doesn’t it look real?? PLUS, this budget friendly alternative is WAY easier to clean.
Weekend well spent! @janenerycheath now has a BEAUTIFUL patio that she can welcome and host guests this summer. She used our Concrete Quilt Tile Stencil for this DIY hack.
Nothing finishes off a Jungalow style backyard patio than bold boho pattern. @modernromanticsantabarbara painted her patio concrete wall with our Rabat Tile Stencil for a beautifully bohemian backyard escape.
“I painted and stenciled my kitchen/dining area floors. I love when my vision comes to life, especially when it’s budget friendly!” - @interiorswag used our Contempo Trellis Stencil to create the look of large floor tiles.
“Want a super cool alternative to wallpaper for that accent wall in your room? Stencil it instead! Stencils come in lots of different shapes and patterns, but basically it’s an awesome design that you paint to cover the wall with a pattern. Our guests can never get enough of this gold stenciled wall, and honestly... neither can I.” - @missionloft used the Damascus Allover Wall Stencil, Casablanca Trellis Wall Stencil, and Ornamental Cartouche Wall Art Stencil.
Oh hey, look what we found featured on Design Sponge! Design*Sponge says, “This entryway will wake you up in the BEST way possible - owner and designer @whitneyjdecor went for maximalist vibes in her once plain entryway and we are loved the Tribal Batik Wall Stencil pattern from Royal Design Studio on the wall!”
Check out what @yourgeauxtoagent is doing to her floors this week! She is stenciling her reclaimed concrete floors with our Lisboa Tile Stencil.
“I’m in no way a handy person or a crafty person but I’ve been using being a homeowner with finite means as an excuse to tackle things I’ve never thought I could possibly achieve. I’m super proud that I did this!” - @tyleredits is a first time stenciler and he used our Maison Floral Tile Stencil to paint over his plain porch tiles and it LOOKS OH SO GOOD!!
Jaw-dropping wall art can be done by yourself! No need to spend hundreds (or thousands!) of dollars to decorate that empty wall space with a designer look. @artspace_tirana_home used our Mandala Fusion Wall Stencil, Zahara Moroccan Wall Stencil, and NovaColor plasters to paint his own wall art canvases.
Our Opposites Attract Modern Tribal Wall Stencil elevates a modern room while infusing it with history and culture. This wall design creates the perfect backdrop for @saltandsundry’s trendy home decor.
A backyard oasis that helps you escape the norms and woes of everyday life should be and look like everything you’ve ever dreamed of. @buttermilkgirl finds peace surrounded by beautiful colors and pattern so she painted her greenhouse floors with our Renaissance Tiles Stencils Set.
“This space came out better than I could have imagined! I wanted a place where the hubby could relax, grill, and entertain friends. We are both such homebodies so I wanted our patio to have that bar and grille, hip and trendy restaurant feel without having to leave the house.” @breezesayhome stenciled her GORGEOUS floors with our Anatolia Tile Stencil.
@verdigreenhome gave this gorgeous accent wall depth and detail by simply painting and stenciling. She first painted an abstract wall design and then stenciled over sections of it with our Silk Road Suzani Wall Stencil.
“Our backyard patio is done! It’s absolutely gorgeous & we’re so happy with how it turned out!!! Looking at the transformation stenciling made just blows my mind.” - @mamaofthreeloves used our Spanish Tile Stencils Set to add a faux tile patchwork design to this reclaimed concrete floor.
“After years of waiting to have enough extra money to install a tile backsplash, I got tired of waiting and used the Subway Tiles Wall Stencil as my solution. We love the way it turned out! Stencils really are a fantastic way to get a look you want on a low budget. I can’t wait for my next stencil project!” – @mbrdomesticstyling
@jennahinckley decorated a lovely space for the 2018 Oklahoma Designer Show House. Instead of using wallpaper that can damage walls, she instead opted to paint this feature wall with our Moroccan Inlay Wall Stencil.
