Entryway Console Table

What happens here

Wearing protective gloves, apply Watco Danish Oil (natural) liberally to all surfaces of the assembled white oak console table and the unpainted drawer boxes using a rag. Wipe on the oil evenly, ensuring complete saturation. Allow it to penetrate for a recommended time (as per product instructions). Then, wipe off any excess oil with a clean rag. The Danish oil will darken the grain slightly, providing a natural, protective finish.

Goal: The main console table structure and drawer boxes are finished with Watco Danish Oil to enhance the wood grain and provide protection.

What they say

Hide

as many coats as possible to make the paint look rich, even, and, most importantly, without streaks . Finally, for the finish, I chose Danish oil, mainly because it's easy to apply with a cloth: just wipe and let dry. The nice thing is that it retains a beautiful natural look. It may only darken the texture a little, but it's the perfect result we were aiming for. For hardware, we chose 12-inch
