DIY Wood Staining Projects That Make us Want to Create Our Own!

Take a page out of this wood stain project. These DIYers took an outdoor living space and are in the process of transforming it into a backyard oasis with a hot tub, pass through slider from the kitchen, new outdoor living furniture, and TV!


They wanted to make the siding the focal point, so they grabbed some wood from other DIY projects around the house and pieced together a beautiful array of stained wood siding.


Decorated with plants, flowers, and herbs, this stained wood siding represents everything this family loves and appreciates, from the colors of the stains to the choice in foliage.
