This all about pine piece came to me after being thrown out to the dump.
It was crying out for a beautiful polished look that only the Java Gel Stain finished with a satin high performance top coat can give.
After sanding and cleaning this little piece, I generously applied the java gel stain to the top. 4 coats later I had the wonderful full bodied colour I wanted.
The colour to compliment the stained top was found in the what I call the summer take me to the beach colour, introducing Persian blue milk paint.
and Linen for a soft warm addition.
