Tips Of The Trade: Creating A Stenciled Floor Cloth
Russel Peterson from non-profit design studio Alpha Workshops shows us how to create a stenciled floor cloth, which you can display on the floor or hang as a wall covering. By creating your own motif like Russel's, which was inspired by Alpha Workshops' recent mural for the Humane Society of New York, you can add a personalized element to your home. Russel recommends using Benjamin Moore's enviromentally friendly Natura paint since it has minimal odor and doesn't contain any VOCs.
