As the countdown continues the baby's has finally started to come together. The staining process was long and it's important to remember that you should sand then stain an repeat that process until you get the color you want and then sand and add the lacquer. It was a great learning experience and one I'm sure will pay dividends in the future with Taylor and baby girl. I'm almost positive that I'm not done staining furniture. We had a tremendous amount of help from family and we are extremely grateful for the help.
