Spray painting Hive logos
Since I made some stencils it was time to add the designs to my Strawberry planters I painted. Using some regal red spray paint and my stencils made with thick paper I tape it up and get to spraying.
The over spray is something I had to deal with at first but after learning I added more paper and tape around where I was spray painting. I ended up adding the logo to all four sides, maybe next time ill just add it to one or two of the sides instead. Just got really into spraying that stencil.. haha
I plan on using this stencil again for my bee hives, though I may have to make a slightly smaller one, this stencil may not fit on my bee hives. I can easily make another one by printing out a slightly smaller logo on my laser printer and then etching it out just like I did in a previous post. See link below on how I did it.
and
The bees wont mind the logo, actually they wont even be able to see it. Red is one color that bees cannot see. So I guess it will just look like plain bee box to them. Not that I think the bees would be offended by the Hive logo or anything, they would probably dig it if they understood the technology.. hehe
The stencils have held up well, I thought they were going to rip but glad I ended up using the thicker paper. Its the stuff you would draw on or make posters out of. I found the copy paper too thin and easy to tear after stenciling the Hive logo. So I bought some poster board and redid it on there. The only thing was the over spray I had to watch out for, and to make sure I had the stencil flush against what I was spraying it on. Or the logo comes out a little fuzzy.
I may make a really large stencil so I could put it on my wall somewhere in the house. But I think thats something I need to research how to do as I would need multiple poster boards to accomplish that. Maybe ill scale up to that before trying such a large project. And since my laser printer can only print up to letter size and legal size it might be harder than I think to do multiple sections of a stencil. For a single poster board logo this one I spray painted on the planter is probably as big as my printer can handle. I would need to order a print from a larger printer if I wanted to do a single print design for stenciling.
