Stenciled Deck Rug

We built our new house in the middle of a prairie hay field. This means we have a ton of wind at least until all our planted trees mature in about 10 years!! I have always wanted a beautiful deck with a pretty rug but unless it was nailed down and was pet hair proof it is not going to happen. I can however have a painted/stenciled one. Here is how I did it ... Using this large prosperity mandala stencil from Cutting Edge Stencils  and Fusion Mineral Paint I created the rug of my dreams. Like any painted project, prep is needed.. first step was to sweep and scrub my deck where I planed to put the new "rug".

MMS Milk Painted Shutter Grey Tray


I love updating trays; they come in so many shapes and sizes perfect to add color and quotes.


I picked up this tray stained black, the perfect base color of my weathered grey plan.


Miss Mustard Seed milk paint in shutter grey was brushed over all sides including the bottom.
Shutter grey was used on this sweet IKEA organizer and wine crate too.

A custom mixed of left over white milk paints was dry brushed over the soft grey and all were sanded smooth.


Like this very similar tray in white, I stenciled the word ENJOY using Fusion Mineral Paint in coal black.


The entire tray was sealed with clear then black waxes.
