Hi Kathleen, I wanted to do one myself and chickened out on the stain. I did do one in pencil though and it turned out equally well. Here is a link though if you want to try the stain. I also have a picture of the table I did with pencil. I drew the picture and did all the shading in pencil, then finished it with polyurethane to seal it. https://www.hometalk.com/diy/paint/furniture/she-uses-stain-to-refresh-a-furniture-piece-into-a-piece-of-art-14805603
