No Sew Ottoman with Stencil

 This is a postscript to this morning's blog post.  I just couldn't stand the blank canvas from my no sew ottoman so I used a stencil I purchased several months ago from Maison de Stencils.  I love this stencil and it was easy to use.  I poured a glob of pewter gray and a glob of gray taupe next to each other on my palette and instead of mixing them, I simply dabbed the stencil brush kind of in both colors using different parts of my brush.  I thought it would give it more of a worn faded look.  It's still pretty neutral, just not blank.
