I saw a "tip" the other day on how to fix scratches on your wood chairs. Well, the scratched chairs didn't apply to me, but I have some awesomely scratched banisters. The tip was; rub a walnut over the scratch. How simple can that be?! I happened to have a can of mixed nuts in my pantry and promptly picked out a few walnuts. I did try and wipe off all the salt before I started rubbing on the wood.
I'm not naming any names (Emma!) may have etched her name and a few Xs in the wood quite a few YEARS ago. They were mostly out of the way and I thought trying the walnut couldn't hurt.
The before:
The after:
It didn't remove the scratches completely, but what a difference! Thank you Pinterest.

Genius! I want to rub walnuts on all sorts of things now!
I wish I had some walnuts!
I've been thinking of starting a pinboard "Things I've Done Because of Pinterest"...or something like that. It might help me justify the time spent 'researching'.
Awesome! It makes all of those hours on Pinterest totally worth it ;)
