I ordered a wooden tray with adjustible legs for sitting with a laptop, but the wood as advertised wasn't oak, but bass wood and also, very light in colour. Sending it back would have cost far more than the product's original cost, so instead I kept it, feeling disgruntled.

However, not to be disappointed, I applied a darker stain to the wooden tray, using a feather to make some wood grain. After the wood dried, I waxed it with beeswax polish. It looks lovelier now than when first bought. In fact it looks more expensive.

I suppose I could have contacted the seller and berated them for incorrect product description, but it would have been a big hassle because I dislike confrontation.
