I bought some holly and when I opened the package there was quite a bit
of stain in the wood. This piece is 1 1/2 X 8 about 6 ft long. I bought it for
contrast wood, box lids, and finials. I turned a small bowl tonight and am
not happy with the color. It has been kilm dried. It is still on the lathe with
a glue block and faceplate. My question is can I do anything with this to get
even color. It turns and sands quite nice. I am thinkig of using black gesso
on this one. Does anyone dye or bleach holly.
Thanks in advance, Kevin
