OK

For butting in, but I have also done this project following Paula's advice and I love the results.
that's perfect, I didn't know you could buy such nice premade stencils, I'll have to check out Michaels!
I assume you must mean me, because I think I'm the only one here who has done that. Sorry I didn't see your post yesterday.
I purchased ready made stencils from Michael's. They had several different fonts available. I chose a script. I used a stencil brush and stencil paint.
I roughed it out with paper and pencil first so I had an idea of what the finished size would be and centered it on the wall based on this.
It was a very time consuming job, so have patience!
Let me know if I can help further :)

using an overhead projector. Trace the image / message in light pencil and then when you`re happy with it, do it with paint and a fine brush.
