Art Video Collection

All About Stencils has an art video collection for sharing with you how to use stencils in your arts and crafts or interior decorating projects.



Each video covers a unique topic and therefore they are dispersed throughout this web site. I created this page as a library to offer you direct links to each one because I believe that watching is the best way to learn and be inspired. So, without further ado...here they are -

I can’t say it enough. The real beauty of stencils is that they allow you to put hand painted images in difficult places so that you can custom design your own arts and crafts. This Christmas Art Activities Project proves this point very well because it involves painting on glass. You know how slippery glass is and paint does not want to stick to it. Well, I want to show you how easy it is to custom design Christmas Ornaments with stencils!

I found this great Stenciling Instructions Art Video from The Artful Stencil that I want to share with you. Not only is it a valuable way to see basic stenciling techniques in action it also shows you how to add depth and life to your painted images.

Patriotic Stencil Projects are very popular lately. Since 9-11 our hearts have rekindled the loyalty we feel for our Country.

A Stencil Mask is a negative of a stencil. Where stencil patterns allow paint to be applied to open areas, a mask blocks areas so that paint can outline the images. Here is a great video to let you see it in action. The video has some great ideas for all of your paper crafts like scrap booking and card making.

Every time I break out the Arts and Crafts for Kids Projects, I am always amazed at how their own creativity and imagination takes over to carry us in new directions that I could not have dreamed. That’s the beauty of introducing children to art. They are not afraid to splatter paint or try new things. They are not worried about getting it right the first time. Of course, they don’t even consider if they are going to make a mess or not. They play and experiment and that is the very essence of art!

If you’re looking for great Kids Craft Ideas , I’ve got one for you. I planned this one for a Football Tailgating Party. I made this fun arts and crafts for kids scheme with stencils and some inexpensive t-shirts and it was a hit. I put it all in a video to get you started quick because of course time is of essence, right?

You'll see that Wall Stencils are an easy and affordable way to add patterns and unique design elements to any room plus they are a great alternative to pricey and hard-to-apply wallpaper. Transform a plain wall into a garden of designs, patterns, colors and maybe even a whole scene simply by securing a stencil to the wall and painting over it. Here is an art video to show you how.

Card Making is an art form that has been around for generations. A homemade gift is truly from the heart and one to be cherished by the receiver. However, there is no limited to the ways that you can create a card. Here is another inspiring video from The Artful Stencil.
