Small Gift Boxes, continued-Stained Boxes

Hi Everyone,

Well, I took all the remaining boxes down to the wood shop and lightly stained them all. And they came out looking a little more colorful than they were before. Here's a photo:


The hackberry box really benefited from this as the spalted areas show up very strongly now. All in all, a good idea. I'm going to let these all dry completely and later tonight I'll give them a coat of polyurethane. I plan on apply two coats and then polishing them and sending them on. I'll post finish photographs probably on Saturday.

It's been blazing hot here this week and I'm really tired. I'm going to defer working on the bed frame until this weekend.

See you all Saturday,

VW
