A while ago I have posted about a wooden box that I have acquired with intention to clean up a bit and use for storing the shaving gear. Finally work has started.
Today I’ve finally got round to sanding it down and putting a layer of wood darkening stuff (it’s in french so no clue what it says lol!). Came out a bit darker than expected but I do like it. Now to let it dry for 24 hours and then to lacquer it (was wondering about oiling it, but not sure how absorbent it’ll be)
here’s few pics of progress so far
