@bellowingtimber These look incredible! How do you get all these shades of blue? 🤯
@sulco
Thanks! The darker blues and black were already dyed when I got them - but the lighter blues/greys and darker greys I did myself by bathing a few different types of veneer overnight in an iron sulphate solution.
