New Project: Miniature "Restoration Hardwood" Style Beds
I spent this morning aging wood for my new project underway. I plan on creating a twin bed, a double bed, and a few vintage signs using weathered wood. I am channeling Restoration Hardware for this project. The wood turned out beautiful. I have to let it dry completely, but so far, the colors are perfect. If you are interested in learning how to weather wood,
check out my tutorial, it's super easy.
