I...What a bevy of fantastic crafting information!! I've never heard of the citrasolv thing or the applecider vinegar thing (how on earth did you find out that vinegar aged wood?) I can't believe how authentic it looks. Have you ever tried putting the vinegar on really sloppily (as in missing spots) and then painting over it? I noticed you said that nothing sticks to the vinegar wood...so I'm wondering if this would create a chippy paint look. Hmm, may have to go buy some vinegar!

Woul...Wow that looks great. I have got to try this.<br />Would you mind letting me know the ingredients in Citrasolve. I live in Europe and would like to find a similar product that could do this for me.<br />And does it have to be applecider vinegar? Does regular white vinegar work too?Mariannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10617133305191792462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9121030163231764567.post-36870433048782948992011-09-24T08:03:57.581-06:002011-09-24T08:03:57.581-06:00Hi Pam, this is just genius!!
