Nothing fancy. Minwax satin wipe-on poly. About 6 coats. Then Renaissance wax, rubbed in with a blue Scott shop towel and buffed a little with steel wool.


Everyone else, thank you very much for your kind words.
Best,

Sweet! It's done and lovely- all that counts- she will treasure it far longer than it took to build!

Really stunning. A great combination of woods ( and I'm often not a fan ).  Not quite sure why it took so long, but life does get in the way.
Wink  My daughter would enjoy something like that.
