Traditional brick pattern used more commonly during the early or pre-Victorian periods.
Stencils are made from Mylar (Polyester) which is a tough plastic like material so stencils are durable and easy to handle and can be re-used many times. A separate repositionable adhesive is required when using Mylar stencils.
Stencil Sheet Size
Stencils are available in a range of different sheet sizes to suit different jobs. The scale and design is identical regardless of the sheet size. Larger stencils allow larger areas to be covered more quickly with less joins and repeat applications.
Stencil Scale
Choose the correct scale to suit your dolls house or model. The most popular scale for dolls houses is 1:12 which is also the largest scale and the easiest to work with.
*Important Note: Stencils in 1:12 scale - 1:24 scale are designed for application of Realistic Brick Compound. It is possible to use brick compound with smaller scales, but for very small scales (1:48) better results may be achieved using alternative materials such as fine textured paint. Mylar stencils can also be used as an impression mould with air drying clay.
