Because Pine Trees Shouldn’t Be Pink….Wax On

This weekend I found some pine trees to use for my winter/Christmas decorating.  They are meant to look like carved wood, but they are just casted.  In my house they looked pink.  Pink isn’t my color especially when it comes to pine trees.  I fixed my problem using some dark brown Briwax.  I wanted to maintain the lights and darks of the trees, but take away the pinkish hue so I waxed them.  I took some photo so you can see the difference.

They look a lot better dontcha think?  So if you aren’t crazy about the color of something tray waxing or glazing to give it a warmer hue. 

I will show you where I put them after Thanksgiving.
