Thanks Sandra for your ideas. I was wanting to keep the same look.
probably not the answer you were looking for, but i kind of like this distressed look... i would scrub with the steel wool and then just seal the whole thing with a clear sealer rather than stain it. It's shabby chic!
Wonderful, thank you 😆
