Understanding Stucco Veneziano Plaster Art

By: Adam Peters

Plaster art can provide your walls and ceilings with a unique and elegant style. You could even make a career out of it if you practice enough and find some good designs.

Plaster art is becoming increasingly popular and Stucco Veneziano plaster art is particularly popular.

Adding a touch of elegance and a unique sense of style to any room, plaster art does look really good, though it can be difficult to achieve. Using stencils, many drywall contractors as well as builders, use plaster art to add value to the work which they provide. However as winter came business started to dry up and instead contractors started to use raised stenciling.

How to Achieve a Raised Stencil Look in the Home

Basically raised stenciling required a stencil in the design of your choice and joint compound. All you have to do is smear the compound which is otherwise known as wall mud, over the stencil and allow it to dry. This will create a raised stencil effect and it is commonly used on walls and ceilings today.

If you want to create a raised stencil look yourself then it really couldn’t be easier. Just purchase an ornamental mold and spray it with mold release. This is basically just a silicone based spray which will prevent any plaster from sticking to it. Next fill the mold with Plaster of Paris and mix it with water. Leave the plaster to harden and then apply joint compound onto the back of the hard plaster. This will help to stick it to the wall and you will be left with a raised stencil design.

You can purchase a number of different stencils and by combining a few different ones you can really come up with something unique. These types of designs are particularly good for borders and ceilings in any room.

One of the best things about stencils is that they are fairly cheap to purchase. Even joint compound and Plaster of Paris are really cheap and this allows you to add style to your home if you are on a budget.
