Pirate Ship Jewelry Stand

Step 9: Stain everything and glue together

Now that all the wood pieces were cut out, it was time for staining.

I first stained the entire body, then each of the rails individually, putting them into their holes as I went (without glue).  Then I stained the masts, and inserted them into their holes to dry.  

Usually, it takes wood stain a few hours to dry, but I left it overnight just to be safe.
