Judging from the pictures alone, we at first thought this was a project to make use of wallpaper scraps. But even better, this can be done with created, copied or downloadable stencils.

The bins above are the Snack series from Ikea. The project is completed by simply 1) painting the base color on the unassembled front panel, 2) applying the stencil with spray glue, 3) painting within the lines of the stencil, 4) letting the paint dry before peeling off the stencil, and finally 5) assembling the box.
