interior staining

I hesitate to share these photos of the new interior stain, because the stain was still wet and the final look is not yet achieved. But I want to document what is going on this week. The first floor staining will be finished by Friday and next week they will concentrate on the second floor. On this door, the stain has dried, so this is very close to what the actual color will be. The surrounding wall looks browner and that stain is still wet. It goes on looking brown and dries looking gray-er.
In the next shota again the door is dry and the wall is wet. The shine disappears when the paint dries.

The last shot shows the new color, still wet and brown, against a door which has not yet been stained. The characteristics of this stain is very interesting, due to it changing as it dries.
