Knotty pine door

I had a slight staining mishap while working on the Spring Fling. I used my favorite IKEA stain, antique. Well, the can was a little old and had bits of coagulated stain floating in it. I didn't realize this until after I started to apply it, of course. By then, I had to just go with it and stain all of the pieces to match.

Once dry, the ratty bits smoothed out with a light sanding but left darker spots as expected. This ended up being a happy accident since the basswood looked like knotty pine. Not a bad finish after all.

Once this project is done, I'll be pouring the stain into kitty litter for disposal, but I like the results this one time. :yes:
