Hello, Amish furniture fans! This is Beth Rice, co-host of the Amish Furniture Podcast. We’ve enjoyed sharing all things Amish furniture with you. We’re taking a break right now to work on new episodes and enjoy the holidays, but we won’t make you wait long. In the meantime, here’s a mini-episode about how Amish furniture is finished. We’ll be back in the New Year with new full-length episodes. Thank you for listening and happy holidays!

It's been said that the Finish "makes or breaks" a furniture design. And it's often true! This is an episode for anyone curious about what goes into finishing solid wood furniture. We really stress the importance of working with stain samples to pick your finish color, so if you want to work with DutchCrafters, pick your favorite wood type and order samples at https://www.dutchcrafters.com/Sample-Kits/cat/780
