Stain Wine Stave Serving Tray Handles

Apply Early American Stain to all faces and edges of the handle.  You do not need to get stain into the groove on the interior side of the handle.  

End grain on the handles tend to absorb more stain than the faces, make sure everything is stained.  

After you've stained five, wipe down five starting with the first one you stained in that group of five.  Don't leave glove prints on the faces by holding from the end grain sides.
