I've never had a metal stencil before and bought this on a whim when the price dropped under £3. I like it. There's only one small irritation, and that's a couple of little notches on the outer edge, where I'm guessing it was cut out, or attached to other stencils, before they were separated to sell? An old metal (finger) nail file soon took care of that. It's sturdy, but flexible enough that you still need to hold it down firmly, or tape it down, while you draw out the shapes. If you're careful, more careful than me, you can elongate the boxes and lines and use the outside of the stencil to make a larger rectangle with rounded edges, remember the little notches on the outside edge if you don't want to file them down. In one of the pictures posted I just quickly used some nice Phomemo coloured fine liner journalling pens (0.4mm), that I got free with a little printer, to draw around the shapes. Maybe a pencil would've been better, especially for the elongated boxes, so I could tidy them up a bit, I made a few too many extra marks 😁 For the elongated lines I put two dots at either end of the short lines and just lined up the outer edge of the stencil, to keep them straight, and drew a longer line, of course you could make life easy for yourself and just do a long line in the first place, I'm just wonky and didn't have a ruler handy. I don't know anything about bullet journaling, but for what it's worth, for a casual user like me, to draw out with cheap fine liners, and/or pencil, I think it's a nice stencil.

Great for anyone who likes stationery! Some of the small sections would need a en with a thinner nib but most of them fine with a big crystal pen. Easy to use, good value and love that it is metal and not plastic.

A good gauge of metal used, not flimsy, will definitely last. The only problem I had was that the straight lines were a little too narrow for a pen but ok for a technical pencil.

Excellent quality stainless steel stencil with very useful cutouts.

Sturdy and that's the main thing

I liked the idea of boxes to lay out my week. However, in a A5 notebook with a 2 page spread, these boxes are too small and also they sit within the dots instead of connecting them. Will return. Other than that, good quality item. 2 plastic bags worth of packaging seems excessive though!

I wanted a basic stencil for my book journal. I didn't like the multipacks of plastic ones as I wouldn't use 99% of them. This seemed ideal as it is basic and also with it being metal it is sturdy and will last. Great find and buy.

the hearts weren't as big as I expected them to b but the patterns are lovely and will work beautifully.
