The custom wood mantel for the fireplace in 1327 Eagle Way was stained today and the color is gorgeous! The warm gray-brown color brings out the depth of the wood grain and matches the stained Alder wood doors throughout the home.

Unstained Mantel went from this…

… to this gorgeous gray-brown wood! (and this is just the first coat)
We used SherWood Wiping Stain in a custom color for the stained wood throughout the home. The color is blended to coordinate to the Seal gray cabinets from Kemper Cabinets.
I can’t wait until the custom tile hearth is complete!
