This treasure trove of Arts & Crafts stencil patterns is based on articles originally published in The Journal of Decorative Art. When W. G. Sutherland first published this book back in 1910, it was intended for the professional decorator. But today's do-it-yourselfer has skills that far surpass the imagination of Mr. Sutherland in the early twentieth century. Turn-of-the-century methods are described thoroughly and give an excellent background in the art of stencilling for ornamental detail. In addition to discussing supplies and preparations, Sutherland shares trade secrets for managing corners, applying continuous borders and friezes, and working up ceiling treatments and all over patterns - all the while working efficiently and quickly. Arts & Crafts Stencilling is the perfect companion for a bungalow update or for a contemporary Arts & Crafts-style home. W. G. Sutherland was a British sign maker and decorative artist of the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. He was a frequent contributor to The Journal of Decorative Art, published in Great Britain. Synopsis:Classic stencil patterns from the Arts and Craft period.
Synopsis:A reprint of a classic arts-and-crafts era title first published in 1910, Arts & Crafts Stencilling shares master craftsman W.G. Sutherland's stencil patterns and time-tested preparation and application advice for bringing the beauty of unique stencil dcor to any home.
