All stencils are 2.6" square and made out of quality stainless steel so paints can wash off easier. They are manufactured in California, USA!!


 
       
Our very own line of stencils!  Our first set is on Japanese family crests and cultural icons.  

Shop for them at our webstore.  You can use them on food, paper, clay, metal, wood,glass, fabric, and so much more! Use them gently and they will last for a very long time. Avoid using them in a way that would bend any part of it. Peel away from the stencil while it is on a hard surface, rather than peeling or prying the stencil. Push clay or rolled out polymer clay onto the stencil that is on a hard surface, rather than pressing the stencil onto the clay.
