     Great looking frame Bob. What is the process you use to stain the carved areas?

    About to ask the same question, Bob.

    Once I an finished with carving (lettering and such), I seal the entire project with 3 - 4 coats of clear - making sure I get the carved area really well.  Once dry, I then apply the stain the to the carved areas, wiping with a soft cloth which removes the stain from the surface since it is sealed - but the stain remains in the carved areas.  Once stain dries, I apply an additional 2 - 3 coats of clear over.

     

    On a side note - I like to use Gel Stain - it seems to work better - at least for me.

     

    Hope that explains the process well enough.
