## Community Q&A

**Q: How do you make the pattern fit at the bottom?** *(in Product Questions)*

How do you make the pattern fit at the bottom of the wall? Or do you just let it ends where it ends? I assume you could use the top stencil but it may not match up, depending on the wall height.

A: The stencil is actually pliable enough to work it into the baseboards of your floors! This video here covers all the basics to stenciling a wall including tackling the bottom of the wall! -Erika

**Q: Paint color suggestions** *(in Product Questions)*

Can you give suggestions for the type of stencil paint and the colors used in the sample with the green fonds and rose colored flowers?

A: Thank you for contacting us! Unfortunately this photo is on the older side so the colors for this project are not noted. But you can actually take this photo to your local paint store and have these colors color matched! As far as paints go though, you can use any latex or acrylic based paints for the stencils! We prefer a flat finish because its super porous and dries quickly, but a sheen can be used if you wish. Just be a bit more carful with them as they are a bit thinner!

Thank you!
Erika

**Q: How many do you need?** *(in Product Questions)*

How many stencils do you need to do 1 accent wall? Do you need to purchase more than 1?

A: One should be just fine! These are reusable so one can pretty much complete an entire room! If you have a larger room or higher ceilings, a second one may be needed so you do not completely wear down the stencil! -Erika Damiano, Cutting Edge Stencils Manager

**Q: What does small and medium mean when ordering this product** *(in Product Questions)*

Is the pattern small or medium or the size of the stencil?

A: Hi Randi,

Thank you for contacting us. Small and Medium refers to the size of the stencil. When you select either medium or small, the product description and the product specifications actually change. So you will notice the stencil itself AND the design size change.

I hope that helps! Please let me know if you have any questions.


Best,
Erika Damiano
Cutting Edge Stencils Manager

**Q: paint color** *(in Product Questions)*

Hello, I love this stencil.  What is the color of the paint used?
Thank you!

A: Thank you for contacting us! Unfortunately this photo does not belong to us so I am not 100% sure of the colors used! We are Benjamin Moore affiliates so I went to their color gallery to see if they had anything similar and the blue used looks similar to their color 'Spring Sky'! Whites are very difficult to match so I would recommend going to a local paint store and finding a white you like! -Erika

**Q: What is the diameter of the actual circle on the small and large art?** *(in Product Questions)*

A: The Small Resonance stencil is 12" in diameter and the Medium Resonance is 15.7".

Best,
Erika
