Fix Your Hardwood Scratches This Minute!

This will take you only a minute with supplies you probably have in the house. Are you ready for the easiest tutorial ever??
My floors are all scratched up from various fun times in life. I am not about to move all my belongings and myself out for a week to get my floors refinished so I use this trick regularly to mask minor abrasions that happen along the way. It works awesome, I swear!
Take a nut and rub it hard on your scratch. I think any nut will do - I've tried several.
Brush away the crumbs.
Go have a glass of wine and cheers to me at all you accomplished in such a short period of time!!!
As the oil from the nut soaks into the wood the scratch will fade even more.


How easy was that!? Please don't forget to cheers to me :)

    My hardwood floor finish was poorly done. Now the finish is peeling up in spots. Is there something that I can do without moving out and having the floors re-done?

    Does this work on laminate floors as well?

    I have an inexpensive but very cute kitchen table. Truth be know, it's probably made out of some sort of poly/wood. Anyway, the traditional furniture markers won't touch the knicks. It knicks easily and is a beige under the surface!! Help!! I want to keep it!! Thanks!

    🍹 Cheers to you Rachel


    Love this tip. My sister will love this also. She just had her entire home rebuilt after hurricane Michael and her wood floor in the dining room got a scratch. She is beside herself. This will help. Thank you!
