TOBACCO AGING WOOD:

In the early Colonial & Settlers days men chewed a lot of tobacco. They would spit their chew right onto the floor in the salons & dance halls, which was swept out the next day or several days later....This is what is responsible for the beautiful wood plank floors colored to perfection with tobacco chew!
Here is how to acheve that look without chewing & spitting tobacco juice..

Chew Tobacco (Large pack-any brand)
Warm Water
Pure Bee's Wax & a Soft Rag
Any wood that has not been painted or stained.

Mix tobacco with enough warm water to make a mushy mess. Get a big glob in your gloved hand, smear onto the wood rubbing with your hands.
Let mixture sit on wood overnight....Using a brush or rag, rub off tobacco chew.
Check color, repeat if you want a darker stain.
When color is perfect, melt beeswax in a pot. Let cool to where you can touch it. Rub into wood with a soft rag. Let dry 1-2 days...Enjoy this wood primitive you just created.
