iron and vinegar stain results

Well it's official... I'm in love!

 In love with a stain! Yesterday I mentioned that I was working on my first batch of homemade woodstain called iron and vinegar. Well I used it on one of my smaller shipping boxes that im making into a bookshelf, and I love the color! I wanted a distressed barnwood color, almost like the wooden box had been sitting in a warehouse for years. Now that I know the color looks so great i'm walking around looking fo more things to stain!

after applying stain,still in the drying process it started out clear, but as it dried it got darker and more grey. I wish my camera would have picked up the color better, it is much more grey than it looks in the pic.
