Never Stained Wood? Watch This Easy Transformation

 

I thrifted this wooden tray from Kringloopwinkel RataPlan on Van Slingelandtstraat 39, 1051 DE Amsterdam.

 

For the stain, I reached out to Baptist in Arnhem—a DIY store for woodworkers and hobbyists. I’ve gone to them for help on past projects, and they’re always incredibly knowledgeable and generous with their advice. It really makes a difference having someone you can talk to who knows their stuff! I ordered a few sample packs from them and they arrived quickly. You can check them out here: https://baptist.nl/​
