This stained color-blocked basket was created as part of a sponsored video for Minwax. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
Stain has a come a long way from the days of a brown liquid in a can! No longer is stain only used for fences and decks but now it’s entered the craft and DIY world as well and the variety of products available are awesome! I created a stained color-blocked basket using Express Color Wiping Stain and Finish from Minwax and the whole project took less than ten minutes {minus drying time}!
This stain is great for wood but it also adheres perfectly to a basket, adding this gorgeous indigo color with just one stroke.
Take a peek at this quick video to get the full how-to for this color-blocked basket and to learn a little more about some of the other great stain products offered by Minwax.

Wow, Randi, what a great idea! I would never have thought to stain a basket, but I really LOVE the color blocked look. Thanks also for sharing the video – it was very informative!
I love baskets! The pained ones are so expensive, I love the idea of being able to create my own for less. So fun!
