NEXT DIY: STAINING THE DECK

I have been dreading this project.  I don't have any experience staining and the amount of preparation is overwhelming (not to mention the size of it!).   Whine.

It is the perfect weekend to do it so I have no excuse now.

Have you done this before?  Do you have any tips for me?

Here's hoping for a productive weekend!

Mrs. Chic, I'm using a semi-transparent stain that is close to the color of the deck now.
