While a little extra color is always welcome, the best part about stenciling your concrete floors is that you don't have to paint them first. In fact, painting a stencil with a classic pattern over as-is floors can give them a vintage look as if the work was original to the home—adding tons of charm to your space in the process.

If seeing all of these images of floors stenciled from wall to wall is giving you pause with thoughts of weekends lost and blisters gained, don't worry. When it comes to floor art, a little can do as much as a lot. Just trim the edges with a stylish print, and let the rough texture of your floor be the backdrop for this classy statement.

You can even stretch your design to half the floor, making your stencil into the perfect area rug. This beautiful combination of patterns and colors gives the appearance of tile at a fraction of the cost.

With the right combination of patterns and colors, a stenciled floor can be all you need to add a designer look to your space. It's an ideal way to ramp up the style in the most utilitarian rooms in the home, such as in kitchens and bathrooms, where the room for other accessories may be hard to come by.

When using stencils to create interest on your floor, there's no reason to stop at just one. Mix and match complementary motifs to create a dazzling effect.

Don't forget to include the kitchen. In one of the most highly trafficked rooms of the house, floor stencils provide a more economical alternative than tiles or linoleum.

Why stop stenciling just because you've run out of floor space? In rooms such as the bathroom, where there may be less room to make a big statement, keep the pattern going and double the impact of your pattern with a feature wall.
