A cloud stencil mural idea
Thank you to Stencil Planet for this stencil cloud mural idea

Here's how to do it

1. Start by painting the room in a sky blue color. You can either leave the ceiling white, which we did, or paint it blue as well. Then use layer 1 of the clouds to stencil the white part. Place the clouds in a random fashion on the top half of the wall around the room, using the smaller clouds below and the larger ones on top. This helps to create a sense of depth. Don't forget to use the registration marks on the stencil.

2. Once dry, use a medium grey-blue color for the shading using layer 2.

3.Finally, touch up any needed areas with a fine brush. Also, consider to use a sealer to protect the stencil art!

Expand on this mural by adding a fishy underwater scene below the skyline. See the fish stencil idea below.
