Close-up to show a before/after sanding. The main branch has been sanded by hand, the smaller branch coming off it is still to be sanded.

When the sanding is finished they will sit in 10% bleach in the bath for a few hours and then a thorough rinse with the power shower. Don't think these will fit in the oven, so will be leant against radiators to dry.

Reckon I've saved ~£30 for a short stroll and some sanding

Can really see the grain now and the colour change.
