OLYMPIC Stains Selects Light Oak as Its First-Ever 2021 Stain Color of the Year
PITTSBURGH — With the world sheltering in place for more than a year, homeowners have established their own low-key lifestyle, which includes yard work and gardening, organizing the often-forgotten attic, and prioritizing do-it-yourself (DIY) home improvement projects like never before. Homeowners have turned to a wide-range of DIY projects, designing homes that incorporate elements of the great outdoors. To help homeowners incorporate desired natural textures and create a stronger connection to nature after more than a year of being indoors, OLYMPIC® Stains by PPG announced its first-ever 2021 Stain Color of the Year: Light Oak.
Light Oak is a soft, semi-transparent, versatile tan stain color that adds a refined Scandinavian-inspired look, while still allowing the wood’s natural characteristics to shine through. Light Oak can revive outdoor decks, patios and pergolas, blurring the lines between indoor and outdoor living. The stain color looks serene when paired with wrought-iron outdoor furniture and cream-colored accents, like plush pillows and seat cushions.
