THe result
The result is way better than the yellowy color we started with!
This pretty coastal green is a perfect color to use with black wax!
Do you spy my girl in the background?
Always lounging nearby!
I love how the darker wax highlights the details:

Adding Painted Layers on the Vintage Claw Foot Table
Go big or go home, let’s kick off these red with bright and bold Honky Tonk Red.
After Honky Tonk Red is Barn Red. Make sure to sand in between coats of paint.
The last red in the layering process is Rustic Red.
You can find more painted layers projects to see how I layer paint on furniture here: Painting Layers .
You will have a very red painted table by the time you finish. By using the dark muscadine wine first there is a darker shade inside the details as you can see. But I want more.
Replacing Black Bee Frames
To promote good colony health, beekeepers should replace old black honeycomb. Beeswax absorbs things inside the hive and substances brought into the hive. Not only pigments from pollen, propolis and honey but toxic substances too.
Any chemicals brought into the hive by foraging bees may end up in the wax. Pesticides and pathogens endanger the next generation of baby bees.
Perhaps, these contaminants are in small amounts that are not enough to kill the colony – that does not mean that they don’t do any harm. Would your bees be healthier if they lived in a better hive environment?
Even we beekeepers sometimes contribute to the problem with old combs. Some treatments used for varroa mite control or other issues can build up in wax comb.
In truth, it is not the black honeycomb that you see that worries me. It is the contaminants that may be in the wax – that are the real problem.
Rotating out old frames of wax before they get too old is the best solution. In this process, a few frames are replaced each year. This means that the colony is not having to start all over from scratch with all frames at once.
This is often done as part of spring beekeeping chores – when the bees are ready to build up. With a lot of natural nectar coming in – it will not be as hard to encourage bees to build comb.
Comb Honey Production – Fresh Wax
Beekeepers that specialize in producing beautiful white honeycomb to sell use special techniques in managing their colonies. Honey supers added for the flow are removed quickly once the honey is ripe.
Beekeepers do not want the daily traffic of bees moving up through the beekeeping honey supers to stain the comb surface. These beekeepers do not reuse comb for several years either.
