If you wish to add your individual design and taste to a home, think about buying bare wood furniture. Finishing wood using a wax polish is a really simple process and the results would amaze you. Not only can you have a lovely piece of furniture for a low price but you may also achieve an unique look. Nobody will know that you bought the bare wood unfinished furniture recently. They will most likely assume it is a household heirloom.
Before you could think about polishing, varnishing and even begin to paint bare wood furniture, you should make sure that the surfaces are filled and sealed properly. Failure to do that can lead to a poor finish. The vast majority of woodworkers will apply general purpose filler to the wood. You should choose a paste in as close a colour as possible to the original wood. If an exact match isn't available, you'll need to go slightly darker.
Alternatively if the piece has already been prepared, you might only need to paint it using sanding sealer. This may prevent the wood from soaking up the French polish or other staining product you utilize. Just check that it's compatible with whatever finish you have picked out as it's going to depend on whether or not you plan on staining, painting or varnishing the unfinished wood.
Another advantage to buying bare wood furnishings is the fact that you'll be able to match it to any shade scheme you like. The same can't be said for manufactured finished pieces. You may mix well-matched wood stains or dyes to get the shade you want or reduce the darkness of a shade by mixing in additional solvent. You may experiment with completely different colors to see what best compliments all of the room's interior decoration.
That being said, varnishing might be the best choice if you are looking to emphasize the natural grain and exquisiteness of the bare wood furniture.
