About Henny Donovan Motif

Motif has been established to showcase and sell the range of exciting up to date stencils from artist, designer and author Henny Donovan. Henny's reputation as the most contemporary stencil designer has grown rapidly - "one of the most fashionable collections around is Motif" - says the Mail on Sunday. Henny's innovation in stencil design has done much to dispel the bad rep of 80's stencils, and her break-through signature range of oversize designs has brought the decorative possibilities of stencilling firmly into 21st century living and design.  The Motif website is the only outlet to purchase Henny's original stencils and stencil paints.

Motif stencils are regularly featured on UK TV and in home magazines both here and abroad. Stencils have appeared on - BBC DIY SOS, 60 Minute Makeover ITV1, Channel 4 and in Ideal Home, The Sunday Times Magazine, Marie Claire, Eve Magazine, Country Living, House Beautiful, Period Living, Your Home, Living Etc, Perfect Homes, BBC Good Homes, Channel 4 Homes magazines and the Italian Magazine, and in The Mail on Sunday, the Evening Standard Homes & Property, The Guardian, The Observer, as well as US Homes, and Cottages and Bungalows.
