Wood Crafts

How do I make bare wood look old and tavern-like?

I bought a bare wood craft box to store some documents in, but I wanna give it a reddish brown pirate chest sorta color and I have no idea where to even begin

Stain it. Just go to a paint or hardware store and find a stain color that suits your liking and follow the directions on the package. If you want it to look beat up and worn then whip chains at it to dent it until you’re satisfied.

Remember, you’re looking for stain, not varnish (varnish will make it shiny).
