Tell "them" that you intend to wallpaper the doors.

Heh. Its just like when I kept reef aquariums, which centers around the
beauty and growth of the corals. The first thing EVERYONE would say when
they walked up to the aquarium was "Why don't you have more fish in there?"
*sigh* You just grin and bear it. It's not there to please "them".

Once they're in, be prepared to constantly explain to everyone what
species they are. They'll be asking if the maple is white oak. Nice
combo, by the way! Jana

Tastes vary...
I've seen and done beautiful woods with and without stain. Curly
woods can look GREAT in some settings dyed.
You might be surprised what goes on every day in architectural
woodworking. Some of the most beautiful stuff you've ever seen has
probably had some sort of chemical color alteration.
It's all about the look!

One of my grandfathers rented a newly-built place to some people who
proceeded to cover all the varnished interior wood with white paint.
He tried to sue them over this but lost, and I suspect that the judge
wore a plaid robe.

You did, of course, tell your co-worker that you were going to
paint your new kitchen cabinets with [insert trendy color more
recent than "avocado" or "harvest gold"] latex. (-:

Woodworking, cooking (Campbell's makes a good cheese soup too) , photography
(wow, you got lucky on that snapshot), small batch bourbon (do you have
ginger ale?) and on and on.
Some people are very happy going through life with nothing better than
macaroni and cheese and polyester. You can't educate them all.

Might be better to look on these occasions as an opportunity for some old
fashioned prosletysing. You never know, you could win a convert.

Better idea: Get a Woodgraining Kit and you can make those puppies look
just like pine.

Is that like fruitwood? I know someone that had furniture that was
fruitwood. It looked like some sort of cherry stain, but what do I know?

The trouble is that there's "what's right" and there's "the law", and the
two don't often bear a whole lot of resemblance these days.

Seems this whole thread (except for the guy who rented the house to some
morons) shows that when we (people as a whole) get into a hobby we tend to
become insufferable snobs. At least I know that Cambells does indeed make a
good cheese soup, box wine is as good (or to me horrible) as any in a bottle,
and aquariums should have fish in them ;)
