The pattern and the color
Before you put your brush, you must first correct pattern. Small, thick or repeated, in a contrasting color or black and white short, the selection varied. Choose your pattern and its color is highly dependent on the effect you want to create. To do combines an accent wall in a room where the furniture and accessories are, dare opposed to a repeating pattern of contrasting color. This space is to anchor and a focal point wherever you want. 
A very detailed, like a damask or mandala pattern, for example, will be increased and best for the space correspond in shades of one color with the walls. To do this, choose a paler or darker than your wall paint color. The effect will be achieved in both directions. 
The material
- Latex paint preferred, unless the walls are painted in oil, then you should use the same medium.
- Brush 1 "or a small marine sponge
- Template, they can be purchased or even corrugated cardboard cut (for a simple pattern of clover, for example) or something rigid plastic film.
- Band edge (Masking Tape)
- And all devices are working properly and simply with: a tarp on the ground, wet wipes, a ladder and paint thinner, if you use the oil painting.
Where to start?
This question may seem obvious, but if the wall paint contains an important architectural detail, it must be centered pattern relative retail in question (eg a house, a window, a sofa, a TV stand) and then work towards sides. If you are working with a large wall without artifice, measure the first application of your template in the ceiling line. Then follow the pattern by repeating to the side and down. Be patient, that's the key! 
One last thing
So your template "not drooling" to allow a thin layer of spray adhesive behind to grab it, the wall surface. Pieces of adhesive tape is the rest of the work done to do your work setting up the template. If your stencil never that dirty, clean, and further, if it is dry.
