love your wood

I have no intention of turning my blog into an 'advertisement' kind of blog,
pushing this product and that product, but once in awhile
I might share things that I think are exceptional. 

Daddy Van's is indeed exceptional. 
It's a revelation. 

 
Just an unassuming can.
 

 
With unassuming ingredients:
beeswax, carnauba wax, and extra virgin olive oil.
 
I prefer the pure and perfectly heady scent of beeswax,
but they do have two scented varieties... scented only with essential oils).
 

 
Of course you can apply it with your favorite cotton cloth, if you want... 
But I prefer to just use my hands. 
 
I dip my fingers in and spread a thin layer over the wood.
And let the wood soak it in for a bit. 
 
Then the cloth comes in handy for any buffing/polishing.
(I think of it as massaging)...


 
Older or dryer wood will need a little more. 
Just look at the difference in this 200+ year old table...
It glows! 
It radiates woody happiness.
 
And a wonderful perk is that when you're done,
you can just rub any excess into your skin!
