Apply oil
Take the wood oil and give it a good shake. Use a sponge or lint-free cloth to apply the oil in an even, thin layer in the direction of the grain. Any excess oil can be removed with a dry cloth. After approximately 24 hours the oil will be completely dry, and your solid wood is ready to take centre stage in your décor.

Continually care
Repeat the treatment at least 3-4 times a year. Think of your wood furniture as an organic, living piece that needs love and care to keep appearances. Wood is an all-natural material affected by its surroundings, and the frequency of treatment depends on where your furniture is placed. In other words: A dry room that's warm can cause the wood to dry out and contract, whereas a damp room can cause the wood to expand. This also means that wood will require more oil during the cold winter months, when the air is often drier than in the summer.
Caring continually and correctly will keep your solid wood furniture beautiful almost forever.
