Do You Like The Look of Reclaimed Wood? You will love this technique.

Begin with a sample board and apply oil-based gray stain to age the wood..

Wear protective gloves to apply oil-based stain to the wood.

The oil-based stain will turn the new wood into a soft gray that appears like old wood.

The new wood has stained and is now dry. It appears to be reclaimed wood. Now it's ready for the whitewash.

Use a dry brush technique to apply white paint over the stained board.

I used the same technique as the island top for the open shelving.

Even the stair treads received the aging technique before being stained.
