I am in love with @TikiMyn's dowel Christmas tree!
Since we don't have room to put up our regular tree, I'd like to make one for our apartment. (We can let Buzzard play on it after the holidays or there won't be a tree left!) I'm wondering what techniques you all use to color larger pieces of wood, like 3' dowels? Should I soak them or can I wipe or spray the color on somehow? I don't have a garage or backyard where I can let something sit out, but I could use the tub in the guest bath if it won't stain it. If there's a chance it might stain I could probably use the long, plastic bin I store our rolls of gift wrap in. How much food coloring would I need for a container that size? Would I be better off using gel?
I appreciate all of y'all's tips, tricks & expertise!
