Materials Needed

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Paint the Surface

Start by painting your wood surface white as a base coat.

Step 2: Apply the Checkerboard Pattern

Use painter's tape to secure your stencil and apply black paint using a dry stencil brush in a swirling motion.

Step 3: Add Transfers

Cut out the pumpkin and crow transfer and place it where you'd like it to stand out. For best results, add a light coat of white paint underneath dark areas to make the design pop.

Step 4: Accent with Butterflies

Add a few butterfly transfers around the panel to bring in a splash of color and whimsy.

Step 5: Finish and Display

Lightly sand for a smooth finish and enjoy your adorable Halloween decoration!

Helpful Tips

  • Use a white undercoat where your transfer will go if working on a dark background.
  • Keep stencil brushes dry and offload excess paint to avoid bleeding.
  • Layer butterflies or extra elements last for dimension and charm.
