Here is a super-dooper organic quick tip for you:
#2 Did you know you can stain your wooden furniture with coffee?! Yup, just make a pot of instant coffee and apply it with a brush to your sanded timber item. Leave your item to dry and add more coats of your coffee stain if necessary, then finish off with your choice of wood sealer. Stronger coffee equals a darker stain and weaker coffee a lighter tone. It’s quick, easy and all-natural.

Thanks for the tip Rose. Definitely going to remember this one!
That coffee looks so strong and lethal – rather use it on the wood than pour it down my gullet!!!!
I like my coffee STRONG!
It reminds me of staining paper with tea and then burning the edges to make the paper look old…..for school projects as a kid!
Oh gosh, I can remember doing that too! Even made an “old” treasure map once!
I was thinking of doing some liming on a little sanded side table, I think I might hit the coffee option!
Awesome! If you do, please let us know how it turned out!
Am definately going to try that, I do quite a bit of woodwork, frames, crosses etc
Please let us know if it worked for you!
