Shelf and Stain Sample

Today, I went and got a sample of the cherry with the stain so we can have Owen Yoder match for poplar trim and doors.  We are going to use the same stain from his match on the decking, backsplash, and shelf around the whirlpool.  He happened to have another job of poplar which looked like a pretty close match.  I should be able to pick up some stain tomorrow, and then we'll be able to get the decking, etc, stained this weekend!

Here is a picture of the sample.

Here are two pictures of this sample beside two other pieces of poplar that are close matches...


And, here is a picture of the shelf that the Bontrigger's cut for me on their bandsaw and sanded...  I have to route the edge and finish sanding it so I'll be ready to stain it tomorrow or Saturday.
