Prepping the wood can be tedious and time-consuming. Staining your 
furniture is the fun part.

  Steps:  1.   Place the object to be stained outside or over 
newspapers in a well-ventilated area.    
2.   Sand all surfaces with light-grit sandpaper, then sweep away any 
remaining sawdust with a hand vacuum, brush or rag.    
3.   Pry open the top of the can of stain with a flat-head 
screwdriver, 
and use a paint stirrer to mix thoroughly.    
4.   Dip one corner of a clean rag into the stain. Dab away excess 
stain on the lip of the can http://rajasthantravelguide.wordpress.com

5.   Apply a light coat of stain to a hidden part of the object being 
stained. Apply the stain evenly to avoid a mottled appearance, and use 
a moderate amount of pressure on the rag.    
6.   Check the stain's color. If the color is right, dip more of the 
rag into the stain, dab off the excess, and begin staining the rest of 
the surfaces.    
7.   Apply the stain lightly and in long strokes going with the grain 
of the wood.    
8.   Wait an hour or until the first coat is dry.    
9.   Check the color.    
10.   Add one or more additional coats to darken the stain.    
11.   Let it dry overnight.
