Dining room makeover

Dining room makeover :  

We are renovating our home. We were living in a total mess for 6 months. All the dusty work is over now. Thank God!

Now I have started working on the decoration. Before the renovation, our dining room wall has been painted with texture paints .The texture painting is so common now a day that you can see it in almost every home. 

   

This time I wanted something unique and beautiful. I decided to use stencils. And there begun my long search for the readymade stencils. I couldn’t get a single stencil in India as per my liking. There is almost no choice. You can order it online from out of India but it gets costly.
     

I didn't want to spend too much money on my experimental project. Hence I made the stencil myself. l drew the design I like on ohp sheet and cut it with craft knife. Here is the stencil I have made and used.

 
      

We painted the dining room wall light yellow as basic color with asian paint royal luxury (don't remember the exact shade). For stenciling I have used asian paint royal glitter color.

This is how the wall was looking before stenciling. Please ignore the mess and poor quality of photo. This is the only photo I could find.

           

     

Because of time constraint I couldn’t give a lot of time in a stretch.  l was working on it 20-30 mins daily for almost 20 days. It was a tedious work but worth it. The result was amazing. If you have time and of course patience, you can round it up in a day or two.

After finishing the cushions (done by my father) the dining room is looking like this.
