Our stencils are made out of a food safe plastic called Mylar that is 10 mils thick, which is 0.010 inches thick. It is thin, flexible, and reusable. These products are great for airbrushing, gently tracing a design onto your sweet treats, or dusting the design with powdered sugar/edible glitter luster onto a different surface but may have many other possible applications. Please contact us if you are uncertain if this product will work for your purposes. All stencils will be cut using a laser printer at the time of purchase. Our laser printer allows us to cut fine details to provide our customers with a unique and intricate design. All stencils will come in white. *NOTE: Some intricate designs require the laser to remain in areas longer than others, because of this certain stencils may come with the design edges tinted yellow/dark brown from the heat of the laser. The sizes listed pertain to the size of the entire DESIGN?S height (top to bottom) or length (left to right). The stencil MATERIAL will be approximately 1 - 1 oe inches longer than the design size. The stencil displayed is our 4 inch size (meaning the design measures 4 inches at the longest side of the design with the stencil itself being 5 oe inches x 5 inches). All other sizes of this design are directly proportional to this size. Our products are individually sized; in other words, although this design may be related in some way to another design, it is NOT sized to go with any of our other designs. Due to the intricacies of certain designs, some sizes may have lines that have been placed to allow for more support or simplified to allow for ease of use. These items are NOT dishwasher safe. SOAK IN WARM WATER WITH DISH SOAP THEN GENTLY RINSE WITH COLD WATER. LET DRY THOROUGHLY BEFORE USING AGAIN. Prolonged exposure to direct heat/sunlight should be avoided. Store on a flat surface to prevent bending/warping. Larger sizes will be shipped in rolls and may arrive slightly curled. To flatten your stencil, we recommend placing it on a flat surface with a heavier, flat object on top (such as books or an area rug) and leaving it overnight. Our products are MADE TO ORDER and typically take between 24-72 hours to process. Please note this time is subject to our amount of currently processing orders, availability of materials, holidays, if a preview approval is required for any of the products you ordered and any changes made after purchase. Since NONE of our shipping services guarantee their ship times, neither can we. Purchasing does NOT guarantee it will get to you in time and it does NOT come with a money-back guarantee.
