Hi!!
My name is Leslie Shannon, owner of Indigo Stencils.
Quick Read
For me, art has always been more than a career — it’s a way to spark joy, tell stories, and bring spaces to life. Inspired by a love for creative freedom, I design stencils that help you turn blank walls into works of art that feel authentically yours.
Full Story
My journey as an artist began in the art classroom, teaching elementary and middle school students that creativity lives inside everyone — it’s just waiting for the right moment to shine. Watching my students surprise themselves with what they could create will forever be one of my greatest joys.
In 1995, I transitioned into a full-time career as a faux finisher and muralist, working closely with clients to transform their walls into one-of-a-kind statements. Many times, that meant designing custom stencils to achieve the exact look they envisioned. Over the years, these creations became favorites among the designers I collaborated with, sparking the idea to share my designs beyond my local clients.
Indigo Stencils grew from that vision — a collection of original, high-quality stencil designs blending artistic flair, timeless patterns, and a touch of artistic soul. Each design is created to inspire, to help you play with color and texture, and to make your home a reflection of your personal style.
Here, your walls aren’t just walls — they’re canvases waiting for you to leave your own artistic mark.
Never stop creating!
Leslie
