Good Resorce book for Victorian stencil designs,
By A Customer
This review is from: 2286 Traditional Stencil Designs (Dover Pictorial Archive) (Paperback)
This book has many beautiful stencil designs and is a good resource book for the professional stenciler. The designs are all copy right free. The only complaint I have is that some of the designs are printed very small and it can be quite difficult to enlarge it to the right size. Also some of the designs can be a little difficult for a beginner to cut themselves.This book is more suited for a professional or someone very experience in cutting their own stencils.

The best book of designs I have.,
By A Customer
This review is from: 2286 Traditional Stencil Designs (Dover Pictorial Archive) (Paperback)
I am a professional decorative artist and this book is just invaluable to me. It is crammed with the most beautiful victorian designs, suitable for use in every part of the house. It is really designed for the professional to use, but with a little practice, I believe that most people would be able to enlarge the designs and turn them into a stencil themselves.Dover Publications' range of motif and design books are the best on the market and as they are copyright free it is wonderful to be able to reproduce the motifs and recreate a victorian feel in one's home. I wholeheartedly recommend this book to anyone interested in producing their own stencils and victorian design and the price just makes it an absolute bargain.

Be aware they are STENCILS,
By
This review is from: 2286 Traditional Stencil Designs (Dover Pictorial Archive) (Paperback)
This book has some wonderful ornamental patterns and designs for any designer to use as a reference. The designs are copyright free which is great, but I didn't think that as they are all stencil designs there are loads of gaps in the work; making tracing etc a little more laborious.
