Natural Wood Stain Tutorial

(IC: blogger)
I've had several readers ask me about the wood stain I've created for a couple of projects so I thought I'd do an experiment on a few different concoctions. I used a couple of different combinations but what was most interesting was the timeframe.
I created each concoction by cutting up a steel wool pad {use 1/2 in each solution} and 1 cup of vinegar. I let them sit for one day then painted them on some sample wood. After a week I painted the solution onto another piece of sample wood. {Please note, all samples received one coat each.} Check out my blog to see what I discovered!
