Finishing
I really like the stained wood and white paint combo. Before finishing I filled all the nail holes with wood filler and sanded all the surfaces to 220-grit.
For the paint I used polished pearl from Behr with a semi-gloss finish to clear up easily.
For the stained wood I used Varathane Dark Walnut and sealed with Varathane’s Triple Thick Semi-Gloss Polyurethane.
