Staining antiquing medium


otterine

With the hutch mostly built, I needed to stain the entire surface. I plan to paint all except the back and counter top, but I will sand that top layer down to show the stain color underneath. One of my favorite materials is Staining Antiquing Medium by Americana. It acts somewhat like a glaze, looks a little like an ointment, and makes acrylic paint behave like a liquid stain. You can use any color you want and still have the wood grain show through. And, you don't have to buy a whole can of stain every time you need just a little color. Here I've used Coffee Latte by Folk Art, which has a warm honey color.
