Olive Oil & White Vinegar Furniture Polish...

I am still muddling away on the French country masculine bedroom makeover.

The patch and repairs from the botched previous painting session are now complete.

Ensuite bathroom window now painted, and the floor polished.

The drapes are hemmed, pressed and hung.
All that remains is to sew a new blind for the small window.

The furniture in this room makeover is to remain unpainted 

in all its natural wood glory...

And it was well time for a lick of polish, so today I whipped up a home-made DIY Furniture polish...

Simply made from two ingredients.
Olive oil & white vinegar...
3/4 cup Olive Oil
and
1/4 cup White Vinegar

So as I was mixing this up, I thought, " Wow, what a great gift idea".

Hence, I got a wee bit sidetracked from polishing the bedroom furniture!

So here is the polish...

looking pretty 

with label, gauze ribbon, flowers and pearls...

ready to gift!

Anyway, back to the task at hand,

Which was to mix the polish and polish up the furniture.

The side tables have scratches.

And now you can hardly see them!

I am having a whoohoo moment!

And it just kept on getting better!
As you can see:

The tall boy chest of drawers, with water marks, sun damage, and scratches...

Rescued by my DIY olive oil & white vinegar furniture polish 

that quite kindly rehydrated that thirsty wood.

It was an instant result!

 Miraculously blending all those marks and scratches to almost nothingness.
How did I not know about this wonderful DIY polish before!
I have always had a love-hate relationship 
with this Balinese rosewood vase:
So I brushed my polish onto it, 
and thought...
You are actually quite beautiful!
But can you believe the difference here....

I just don't know how many times I muttered, 
"This is AMAZING!".

It doesn't take long for the oil to soak into the thirsty dry wood!

Now the carved vase has a place to call home in the French country masculine bedroom makeover!

Guess what I'm doing for the rest of today...

Polishing all the wood in my house!
