25+ DIY Stencil Projects for the Kitchen

The Cricut cutting system has given stenciling a huge come-back from the 1980s. With this wonderful crafting tool, it is possible to download stencil designs from the internet or even generate your own designs.

However, there is still the option of purchasing stencils or the crafter can cut their own!  So many options that anyone can stencil. Go to our page on how to make stencils!

On this page crafters will find many stencil projects just right for the kitchen. Paint and fabric can warm up and personalize any room, and combining the two is twice as nice!

These kitchen craft ideas will be fun to make for yourself or give as gifts. Read on for whimsical as well as classic stencil kitchen craft ideas.

What can you stencil for the kitchen? 

  • Pillows
  • Placemats
  • Napkins
  • Towels
  • Coasters
  • Mugs
  • Tablecloths
  • Table runners

The popular farmhouse style of decorating lends itself well to the use of burlap for placemats, and DIY Inspired gives a great free stenciling project to dress up that farmhouse table.

It is amazing how helpful and informative that the links below can be. There are wonderful tutorials on using Mod Podge to stencil on fabrics to keep the paint from bleeding and making clean lines, tips for holding stencils in place, ideas for stenciling tools and projects galore.

WalltoWallStencils.com brings a truly elegant stencil project with their tutorial on a tablecloth and matching napkins to dress up the Christmas table. The stenciled holly and holly berries look stunning.

Speaking of Christmas and winter time, add some rustic charm to the home with DIY wood coasters!  The stencils used in the tutorial are seasonal, but it is possible to use any theme on these easy-to-make coasters.

Let the crafters at One Little Project bring this easy craft to you. Make a set for yourself or to give as a homemade gift. Every time they are used, they will bring a smile.
