Do you love shapes and are always looking for ways to decorate differently? Are you looking for a way to include geometric structures in your favorite environment?
The easiest way to create these shapes without making mistakes can be found in the use of templates.
These will help us follow a geometric pattern, avoid making calculation errors and delimit the area you want to paint.

Customization of chest of drawers with geometric elements
For this chest of drawers, we have decided that each of its three drawers has different patterns. Thanks to our Stencil Geometric template, we will be able to use a specific pattern for each of the drawers.
These are the motifs we have created:
1. Triangles with Chalk Paint White Cotton.
2. Linear mountain with Matt Paint Black shadow.
3. Waves with CP White Cotton and MP Black Shadow.
Getting started: Prepare the surfaces
To prepare the surface, we simply must clean the chest of drawers to avoid painting over dust spots and other imperfections that could spoil the painting.
Also, since one of the drawers is going to be painted completely white, our next step will be to use the Chalk Paint to give this first color base.
Let's move on to the templates!
Once the base of the third drawer was painted, we began to make the geometric motifs on the other two drawers.
To do this, we have cut out the boxes of each of the shapes that we will need from the Stencil Geometric Template.
As you can see in the image, the process we will carry out will be to fix the geometric motifs on the wood, paint the surface that the template covers and repeat the process until we manage to cover the entire drawer or the part that we want to paint.
It is important that we fix the template correctly so as not to deviate the geometric pattern from what was previously painted and maintain its uniformity.
To create the shapes on the wood, we recommend using Stencil Brushes, as they are ideal for performing the stencil technique and being able to apply the paint perfectly over the gaps in the Stencil.
Furthermore, one of the great advantages of Stencil Templates is that they are reusable, so we can use these geometric motifs on other furniture or decorative elements that we want to customize.
Let dry and enjoy your headboard.
Remember that, to make the shapes on the drawer that we have painted white, we must let this first layer dry so as not to spoil the result.
Once the paint is dry, we now have our personalized and trendy dresser that will surprise all our visitors!
If you wish, you can apply a layer of Matte or Ultramate Varnish to protect the result and increase the life of the paint.
Don't stop creating!
