Weathered Wood Accelerator Growth Ruler

Modernized Pine Dresser in Gray

If you're a fan of clear coat pine, this makeover might not be your cup of tea. But for those who love breathing new life into old furniture, I hope this tutorial sparks some inspiration! The original clear pine finish has aged over the years, and the tall dresser has endured its fair share of wear and tear. With a little care, attention, and a fresh new color, it now serves a new purpose with renewed charm.

Here is a weathered wood look growth ruler, follow as I share the steps to create it.

I used a 1" X 8" X 6'L spruce board from the pile. Check out ones done in an aged wood look & a blue one as well as an aged grey painted ruler,

Using Varathane's weathered wood accelerator I brushed on the first coat.

I thought I would use it on a sanded geometric coffee table too, here is the first coating on.

The first coat is dry, unique looking right?

Here is that first coat on both pieces dry, different wood = different colors. I decided I did not care for it on the coffee table as indeed it does give a weathered black mark look.
