Stencilled Patio - interesting

Featured Replies

From a design blog, a stencilled patio using masonry paint.

 

Interesting idea for a shortish term makeover to concrete slabs.

 

But stencilling is real attention-to-detail stuff. We had a stencilled border on a floor to detract attention from the floor material, and it took a lot of care to do.

 

The design here looks to me to be intolerant to slight misalignments, though the curved shapes and space in the design at tile-edges would help. A bold random texture might be an easier alternative.

I do not understand keeping the fence; that looks like the cheapest form of panelled fencing you can get, and may disintegrate when coughed on by a goldfinch.

 

Unless it is next door's, in which case it formally needs permission to paint it.

The whole thing looks a bit 'shabby chic' to me, so the fence fits in ok. Not my cup of tea at all.
