It comes in various widths and lengths...as an example, 2"x6"x8'. We just pick it up at Home Depot. I try to look for pieces that are clearer or have the least amount of knots in it. The last piece I bought was really nice and clear but the hubby had to plane it down as it warped once we brought it home. <br /><br />Does your friend have a table saw? That's how my hubby cuts ours. I don't know of anyone that sells it already cut though. <br /><br />As for stencils, there are lots of companies online and on ebay. I make my own as I have a stencil cutter. You might want to goggle search for crow stencils and see what comes up. Stencils that are words are a little trickier to search for, but not impossible. <br /><br />If you need anything else, just give a holler!<br /><br />Ddee begghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03454376668751849560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1238222599936456336.post-65305521771271291722011-06-26T21:51:12.493-07:002011-06-26T21:51:12.493-07:00Hi Tam.

I just bought some that are 1" x 2" x 8ft. long. You can find stencil companies on Ebay that do custom stencils and sell their designs. Folk Art from the Harbor is a great place to start. I hoped that helped you out ~ any ??? just email me.<br />Prim Blessings<br />RobinRobin at The Primitive Hutchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03254470125476345405noreply@blogger.com
