Here are a few more trays I cut in the past 2 weeks. I just finished the Lily Pads and Frogs pattern today. The other two are unfinished.
Lily Pads & Frogs: Pine, 3/8", Stained outside painted accents
Horses #1: Maple, 3/8", Unfinished
Horses & Mountains: Mahogany, 3/8", Unfinished
With regard to the Lily Pads and Frogs my intent was to follow Sheila's directions and I purchased the stain medium from Jo-Anns today. I didn't like the look with the off white so I abandoned it. So I found myself doing way more painting than I wanted. (I know why I gave up the painting of projects many years ago.
) After I was finished with painting I tried the stain medium with the green on a scrap of pine and it looked great! Oh well, next one I'll do right!
Thanks to Sheila again on great patterns.
