I sure was busy 2 days before Christmas....nothing like waiting until the last possible minute to start a project! I did this build with my BFF which made it so much more fun! We made this as a Christmas gift for her nephew.
This was my first real stain job! I did that one piece years and years ago, but it had been so long it really didn't count. We were sure to use wood conditioner, which i believe makes a huge difference in getting a really even stain. The stain used here was "special walnut" and I do believe it is quite special. Followed it up with a satin finish polyurethane. Please for the love of all furniture everywhere, do not use high gloss poly! yuck.
