What can you make with your own hands from a log: you will get a designer item
We don’t always plant trees on our property – sometimes we have to cut them down.
If you think that the resulting log is too beautiful to be put in the oven, BelNovosti online publication expert designer Yulia Tychino advises using it as a base for a bedside table, coffee table or tea table.
As a result, you will get a textured, unusual and slightly rough piece of furniture.
Thanks to these characteristics, such furniture will perfectly fit into almost any interior, be it Scandi, eco or loft.
Now we will tell you about several points that you should pay attention to when making this “craft”.
The first thing you need to do before you start working on making furniture is to thoroughly dry its base, that is, the log itself.
Don't forget about processing, because there may be various pests here.
If the workpiece is rough, this defect can be corrected by grinding.
Finally, if you notice that the wood is shrinking or cracking while working with it, which is especially common in the center, you should treat the wood with oil. Linseed oil is best.
