Getting the farmhouse table top finished up. Put pocket holes and @titebondproducts to make the table connect. Then used #miniwax woodfiller to close up the pocket holes. Let dry, then I did the tough job of sanding and getting it ready for stain. #et3carpentry #miniwaxwoodfiller #ryobination #ryobipowertools #farmhousetable #carpenter #carpentry (at Crestview, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/BtmTyECB_wQ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=u1mvetmtwn5z

Picked up these two cans of #miniwax one is #ebony2718 and the fast drying polyurethane satin clear. This is what I'll be using to stain my rosewood fretboard on my fender bass to black. So I'll have the look of ebony at least haha Cant wait!! #fretboardmakeover #ebonystain #miniwax #polyurethane #guitarwork #bassguitarwork #guitarhacks
The makeover. I have this little desk I bought in Paris- and I hate it. It was a space saver, as our bedroom was a lot smaller in France. I used to just keep my little laptop on it. Now, of course, being in Texas, we have the space to have proper desks from which we can rule our self-made empire. (Or my kids can pile all their junk on; either way.) So, for the last few months, as I feed Luca his breakfast, this little eye-sore has been staring me down. I wasn’t quite sure what to do with it because it has very modern lines, and honestly, doesn’t match anything else in the house. But one morning I decided, I hate it, I hate it, I hate it! So, I decided to give it a makeover. I started out by measuring the top of it and then cutting cedar planks to measure. I then gave them a nice rub with Special Walnut stain. Make sure when you’re staining to use gloves and a mask. It’s potent stuff. I then brushed a self-made white-ish chalk paint on as a base and then did a wash of Annie’s Sloan’s, Paris Gray, (only fitting, I suppose). I used clear wax first, sanded, and then followed with dark wax. From there you can buff to your desired sheen. It’s best to have a proper brush, if you can. I bought these little farmhouse handles and drilled holes to attach them. It’s not perfect…. but I feel sooooo much better. FYI, I’m a bit of a maniac and this desk was starting to disrupt my sleep. I will rest soundly tonight.
