Using this unfinished wood table with a flower shape is a breeze. First, peel off the protective paper backing that comes on most of these crafts. This was there to keep the wood safe during laser cutting and shipping. You can use it for various DIY projects. If you need a hole in it, just tell us the size and where you want it, and we'll add it for free. To maintain it, keep it in a dry place to prevent warping. Since it's unfinished, you can paint, stain, or decorate it however you like. And remember, if you have any questions about the product or your project, don't hesitate to message us.
