How to use a tree stencil

  1. Open a design. Silhouettes are one layer and the quickest to cut.
  2. Print a test, then the final size. Anything bigger than one sheet needs tiled printing (Pro) or a print shop.
  3. Cut the black areas. Thin branches need bridges, so keep the little white links.
  4. Tape the stencil level. For a mural, mark the ground line in pencil first.
  5. Dab the paint on with an almost-dry sponge and peel the stencil while the paint is still slightly wet.

Guides

Make your own

Upload any photo or drawing. Free Stencil Maker splits it into layers, adds bridges so nothing falls out, and gives you a printable stencil in about a minute.

Questions

Are these tree stencils free?

Yes. Anyone can browse them, and downloading the PDF is free with a free account. SVG and DXF files for cutting machines are Pro.

How do I stencil a tree on wood?

Sand the board, seal it with clear coat so the paint does not bleed into the grain, then stencil with acrylic and a sponge.

Can I make a large tree stencil for a wall?

Yes. Tiled printing (Pro) splits it across A4 or Letter sheets that tape together, or a print shop can print the PDF on one large sheet for you to cut from mylar.

Can I turn my own tree photo into a stencil?

Yes. Upload it to the silhouette stencil maker. A tree against a bright sky gives the cleanest outline.
