answer:Is it stained oak or natural color? There are magic markers you can buy that are wood colored. They might be in a store like Walmart in the hardware section or in Home Depot. You can buy one similar to the color of your furniture and give it a swipe. If the furniture is stained brown, a trick you can use is take some instant coffee, mix some of the dry grinds (unused grinds) with some hot water so it’s like condensed, and then brush it on the scratches and see how that works. Last but not least is getting the furniture professionally refinished. I’ve had a few pieces done and so has my mom, and you’d be thrilled to pieces when you see what your furniture looks like after it’s redone by a pro. If the furniture is flat and plain (without carvings) you can try it yourself. Check out videos and read on up techniques. However, if there are carvings in it, it’s best to get it done by a pro.
